He's the Seattle Sabers' most brutal enforcer. I'm his best friend's little sister. We've spent six years completely despising each other... until he locked me in his penthouse.
Declan Cross is a lethal weapon on the ice and a completely miserable, brooding prick off it. For six years, my overprotective brother's best friend has made it his personal mission to be my worst nightmare. He's cold, arrogant, and uses his terrifying, heavily tattooed size to intimidate everyone in his path. Especially me.
I hate him.
But when my toxic ex-boyfriend shatters my front door during a massive Seattle blizzard, it isn't my out-of-town brother who shows up to save me. It's Declan.
Looking absolutely murderous, he practically drags me out of the wreckage and barricades me inside his sterile, high-security penthouse. He claims he's just doing it to protect his center's blindside. He claims I'm just a liability he's forced to manage until Connor gets back.
He's lying.
Trapped together in the dark, the hostile, dead-eyed armor between us completely fractures. The fiery arguments combust into raw, undeniable chemistry. I quickly discover that the man who spent years pushing me away hasn't been doing it because he hates me. He's been doing it because he is entirely, dangerously obsessed with me.
Now, we're crossing every single line. We're sneaking into empty locker rooms and stealing breathless moments in the shadows, playing Russian roulette with a fully loaded chamber. If my brother finds out, it will completely destroy their brotherhood and fracture the team.
But the only thing more dangerous than Declan Cross's hatred... is his love.
Savage Blindside is a full-length, standalone hockey romance in the Seattle Sabers universe. It features agonizing slow-burn tension, visceral jealousy, and a highly possessive hero who will burn the world down to protect the woman he loves.
