Tate

She's always been off limits, but when she shows up with my baby, it's a game changer. 

I'm the only son of one of the best forwards in the history of hockey. I play for a team on the brink of winning the Cup, and I'm about to break one of my dad's league records. Life is absolutely golden.

Until Mallory Echolls comes to my game in Los Angeles with a baby. She says the little guy is mine, and as soon as I see his green eyes and the dimple in his pudgy chin I know she's not lying.

The tragic twist? He's not Mallory's baby. An awful accident on the other side of the world took his birth mom, and now I'm all he's got. Well, me and my ninety-seven relatives... once I find the guts to tell them.

Mallory offers to stay in L.A. and help with the baby until I can wrap my head, and my life, around him. She's amazing with my son. She always knows what to do and what to say and... was she always this gorgeous?

Our families back home hate each other so just being friends with her was always a risk. Now the stakes are higher than ever. My son needs her. And I can't stop the feelings I have from growing stronger. 

I always take my shot on the ice, but do I dare take this one?

Tate is a standalone single dad, enemies-to-lovers, hockey romance by award-winning author Victoria Denault.
