Third Man In

T.J. Shanstrom never knows when to quit. So when he sucker-punches a rival while on the ice, the pro hockey player finds himself benched for the rest of the season, suspended, and traded to Colorado. Guilty and trying to make amends, he visits the injured athlete… and is taken aback by a beautiful woman he encounters at the hospital. Natalie Foster’s fresh start isn’t going swimmingly. After her new boyfriend ends up hospitalized and his ex shows up, the part-time dogsitter is pleasantly surprised to make a handsome new friend. And when the guy bites off more than he can chew by adopting a dog, the no-nonsense woman is glad to help. Struggling to fit in with his new team and fix his image, T.J. keeps his background hidden even as he starts falling hard for the charming beauty. And as Natalie accepts increasing help from her platonic shining knight, she’s still blissfully unaware of his true identity… When the whistle blows and the truth finally comes out, it will wreck their chance for a perfect happily ever after.
