Breakaway — Laura Marquez Diamond

CASSIE
Lance Jefferson is my brother's best friend, a superstar hockey player, and my lifelong crush.

I should stay away.

I should focus on my career.

I should remember that he is way out of my league.

But when I get a chance to prove I'm so much more than his best friend's sister, I'm determined to seduce the one man I've always wanted.

Maybe once I get him out of my system, I can finally move on.

Or maybe I'll never recover.

LANCE
Cassandra Atwood has the face of an angel, a body to tempt a saint, and a heart to love a sinner like me.

She's also my best friend's sweet and innocent sister.

I should stay away.

I should focus on getting my second NHL championship.

I should remember that she's too good for the dumpster fire of my life.

Instead, Cassie becomes the only woman I can imagine a future with. But when my secrets resurface, they threaten everything I've worked for.

Will the demons of my past ruin my one shot at love? Or can I break away?
