The Goalie Next Door
When pro goalie Isla Calder limps into Vancouver with a stubborn wrist brace and a chip on her shoulder, the last thing she needs is a neighbor whose power tools have opinions. Enter Theo Hart-quiet engineer, builder of custom goalie cages, and walking definition of competence. His workshop hums through the lane; his attention never wavers.
On the ice, Isla's new franchise needs saves more than speeches. Off it, Theo's gentle, mercilessly practical care-ask, answer, adjust-makes her wrist and her guarded heart remember how to trust. But when old consultation emails from Theo's past in Seattle surface, the rivalry turns personal. With the city watching and the season on the line, Isla has to choose her square meter of truth: systems, honesty... and the man who insists safety is love in practice.
From midnight roof fixes to all-star chaos, from found-family potlucks to one impossible save with:03 on the clock, tough-and-tender romance about making boring beautiful-and choosing joy on purpose.
Broken wrist, bigger heart, one impossible save.
