Hockey, rehabilitation, and a relationship on uncertain terms

After a car accident ends Riley Mitchell’s NHL career and results in the amputation of his right leg, his struggle extends beyond physical rehabilitation to questions of identity and life away from hockey. Lexi Armstrong, the DC Stars athletic trainer assigned to his recovery, becomes part of that transition. Their friends-with-benefits arrangement introduces a romantic-comedy thread alongside Riley’s adjustment to a future that no longer includes the sport at its center. Chelsea Curto’s novel brings together professional hockey, rehabilitation, and the complications of feelings that grow beyond an intended casual relationship.

Book overview

This collectible paperback edition features full-color character art and a never-before-seen bonus chapter.

From USA TODAY bestselling author Chelsea Curto comes the fourth book in her hockey romance series DC Stars, a steamy friends-with-benefits love story between a professional DC Stars player and the athletic trainer helping him rebuild his life after a career-ending injury.

Riley Mitchell has everything he could ever want. A championship career, a tight-knit team, and a future in the NHL that feels guaranteed--until one night changes everything.

After a devastating accident leaves him adjusting to life with an amputation, Riley is forced to confront who he is without hockey. As he struggles, both physically and emotionally, the last thing he expects is to form a connection with the one person assigned to help him heal.

Lexi Armstrong is determined to get Riley back on his feet. As the DC Stars' athletic trainer, she's used to keeping things professional--but there's nothing professional about the tension building between them. So, they make a deal: one night, no strings, no complications.

But once quickly turns into something more. As Riley fights to rebuild his future and Lexi becomes impossible to let go, they'll have to decide if what they have is just a temporary distraction or something strong enough to last beyond the game.
