Off Limits Captain: Blades & Hearts Book One
Damian “Mac” Macallister.
Captain of the NHL’s fiercest team, a trust fund playboy with a killer smile, and a reputation for charming every "puck bunny" in his wake. Or so everyone thinks.
In reality, Damian’s biggest commitment is to his secret life as a volunteer youth hockey coach and dedicated helper at the local senior center. He’s spent five years perfecting the playboy act, a facade so convincing even his best friend and star goalie, Liam, believes it.
The truth? Damian hasn’t had a real girlfriend since he joined the league, and the only woman who’s ever truly captured his attention has been off-limits for Liam’s younger sister, Abigail.
Abby’s always been the one, a quiet crush Damian swore he’d never act on to preserve his friendship with Liam. But after four years away at college, earning her PR degree, Abby’s back in town. And not just back—she’s the newest member of the team’s public relations department.
When Abby, now 25 and more stunning than Damian remembers, walks into the locker room for introductions, Damian’s carefully constructed world takes a hit harder than any slap shot.
At 28, he’s a master of deception on and off the ice, but the way Abby looks at him, the way his heart stumbles, threatens to expose every one of his well-guarded secrets.
Can Damian keep his true self hidden while working alongside the woman he’s always wanted, the one his best friend expressly forbade him from pursuing?
Or will this season be the one where the captain finally gets blindsided by love?
