New York Fury Hockey
Pucking the One That Got Away

Twelve years ago, a lie destroyed everything.
Sports agent Paige Mackenzie has spent over a decade burying the memories of Pittsburgh—and the two boys who broke her heart. So when she inherits a roster of hockey clients that includes both of them, she knows she’s in trouble.
Tyler Johnson, Boston Titans defenseman, still looks at her like she’s the enemy. The boy who once made her feel seen now treats her with ice-cold hostility, and she has no idea why.
Cody “Mitts” Carter, New York Fury forward, greets her with that same cocky grin—but guilt haunts his eyes. He’s carried a secret for twelve years, one that shattered a brotherhood and cost him everything.
When an off-season training camp forces all three of them together, the truth finally detonates. And Paige discovers that the kiss that ruined her life was only half the story.
Now she’s caught between the man who’s hated her for a lie he believed and the man who told it—both of them desperate for a second chance. But Paige has her own secret: she never could choose between them.
Maybe she doesn’t have to.
As old wounds collide with undeniable chemistry, three broken hearts must decide if the love they lost is worth fighting for—together.
