And I can never say no to her. My mouth moves down to her neck as I strip her from the t-shirt she’s wearing. I love that she wears my clothes when she goes to bed. I love so many things about this beautiful woman. Most of all, that she accepts me and loves me back.

My hands slide under the waistband of her panties and push the fabric down. This is finally it, and I’m not even sure where to start because there are so many things that I want to do to her.

“I need you. No foreplay, no games. Just you, Gabe,” she whispers. “Tonight, I just want you.”

Quickly I undress. Placing my hands on each side of her face, we lock gazes. I want to see her as I slide my way inside her. I thrust slowly, pushing myself deep, so deep, almost reaching her soul. We have become the beginning and the end of each other.

I don’t have to pray any longer that she stays by my side and never leaves me. But still I pray that our little Aly is safe with my great-grandparents looking after her.

“What are you thinking?” Ame asks.

“That I’m glad you came into my life. How thankful I am that you gave us a second chance.” I kiss her eyelids and nose. “You always thought I was the one caring for you. But you came to save me. You set the pieces of my heart back together.”

“You’re wrong. The truth about us is that we’re one soul that was lost without their other half. We heal each other just by loving one another,” she says, her hips reaching high, matching my rhythm. “I love you, Gabriel Decker. All the way to infinity and back.”

“I love you just as much.”

I fuse our mouths as I continue moving slowly, claiming her, surrendering to her and becoming one with my perfect half.

What’s next for the Decker family?

From USA TODAY Bestselling Author Claudia Burgoa comes an enthralling single dad, hockey romance that skates through the challenges of forbidden love, healing after trauma, and found family.

They say never mix business with pleasure.

As a single father, and the captain of the Seattle Sasquatches, I’m adamant to keep every corner of my life separate and running perfectly.

That is, until Indie Decker walked into my life.

She’s the team owner's little sister, my new nanny, and so completely out of my league.

Our first encounter? Pure fire, clashing wills with a passion that ensnared us both. Our second? A tentative truce, maybe even a budding friendship. But at some point, we slid recklessly into a 'friends with benefits' arrangement, thinking we could stay casual.

Wishful thinking, I know.

With each passing day, our no-strings-attached fling starts weaving threads between us that I’m not ready to cut. Indie’s fierce independence clashes with my need to protect, to heal, and to love her despite her warrines to open up.

But will my steadfast will and soft hands be enough to get through her defenses? Or am I doomed to sit in the penalty box of Indie’s heart?
