Breakaway — Sophia Henry

In a standalone hockey romance that tugs at readers' heartstrings, a broken ex-pro learns to live and love again -- all thanks to the complicated, wonderful nurse who gives him a second chance.

Brianna Collins needs to break away from her overbearing family. Her parents expect her to “fix” her brother after a series of concussions derailed his hockey career. Unfortunately, no doctor will give him clearance to play, and she's finished with being the person they rely on to perform a miracle that will never happen. For Bree, a six-month nursing assignment at a hospital in Charlotte, North Carolina, is the perfect escape.

Luke Daniels, former forward for the NHL's Charlotte Aviators, has spent close to a year rehabbing a career-threatening injury -- and distracting himself however he can. Worlds collide when Luke realizes that the girl from his latest one-night-stand happens to be the new nurse at the hospital where he volunteers in the pediatric unit. What's more, Bree's the only person who makes him excited about life again.

Despite her initial reservations, Luke can't help pursuing sweet, beautiful Bree. Then he falls back on the thing that's always helped suppress his demons: alcohol. But if Luke doesn't kick his old habits, he just may lose the one thing he loves more than hockey.
