Grumpy Boss Trouble

HIL
As I pull into Snow Tip Falls, there is nothing about it that makes me want to stay. It’s a beautiful small town, but if you stop running, your problems have a way of catching up with you.

But then tragedy strikes, and suddenly I find myself wanting to help. And when the person needing help is a chiseled football player with brooding eyes, dimples, and an endless desire to protect me, I’m reminded of the other purpose of my trip, to have a one night stand that finally rids me of my gay v-card. 

I know why I haven’t lost it yet. Guys confuse me. Cali isn’t confusing, mostly because he doesn’t say much. Maybe he’ll be the one. And if I get his rippling, jock body wrapped around me, it will totally be worth the heart break that will follow when he finds out who I am and what I’ve done.

CALI
You know how some people are rays of sunshine that light up a room? That’s Hil. Man, it’s annoying. Annoying or not, it’s not like I can refuse his offer of help if I want to stay in university, or on the football team.

It’s not that he’s hard to look at. That guy makes me think dirty thoughts.

And, it's not like he isn’t the sweetest, kindest guy I’ve ever met…

Wait, am I falling for the stranger who showed up out of nowhere wanting to fix my life?

There’s a reason I like to keep to myself. And as hot as Hil is, I’m not sure my heart can take being hurt again.
