Not all silence is golden.
Twelve years ago, I escaped a life I hated for a life I didn’t deserve.
I was one of the lucky ones.
From invisible foster child to pro hockey superstar, I vowed to move on, leaving behind my small-town life and everyone in it.
But luck doesn’t last forever, and now it’s all catching up with me.
After a favor propels me back into my old world, I’m forced to live with the one person who could ruin me.
The girl who can’t remember. The girl I never forgot.
The woman I need to stay away from—my beautiful nightmare.
Buttercup… Willow.
For years she’s haunted my dreams, and if she ever remembered me, I’d be haunting hers.
I need to push her away. I need to make her hate me. Only it’s not that simple. The more time we spend together, the harder it is to deny the pull between us.
I want her. I crave her.
But if she ever discovers my secrets, it will destroy her.
Destroy me.
Destroy us.
What’s worse…I can’t even bring myself to regret it.
And if my luck hasn’t run dry, maybe she’ll never remember.
