My name is Rachel Price, and two months ago, I walked away from the perfect man. Sweet and funny, and so hot it should be illegal—we shared one magical night. No names. No strings. I never thought I'd see him again.

I was wrong. It turns out Mr. Perfect is the playboy grinder for the Jacksonville Rays, the NHL's hottest new hockey team . . . and I'm his new physical therapist. Oh, and the jerk doesn't even recognize me!

This fellowship is going to be the longest ten months of my life. Mr. Perfect Mistake will do anything to get back on my good side. Meanwhile, his best friend is the surly new equipment manager always riding my case. Worst of all, I've got an uncooperative goalie who thinks I can't tell he's hiding an injury!

This is my chance to prove myself, and I'm not risking it for anything. But with one unexpected night, one secret revealed, these men are ready to test all my limits. I can't fall for a player . . . let alone three. But if love is a game, these guys are playing to win.

Pucking Around

ā€œYou know I love you too, right? I’m theirs. They’ve claimed me and there’s no letting go. But you’re mine. I claim you, Ilmari. No letting go.ā€

Rachel

ā€œJake, I’ve been telling you almost since the moment we met that you’re my soulmate. Can you really forget what we shared in Seattle? The universe tied us together that night. I live with a rope around my heart now, woven through my ribs, and it connects me to you.ā€

Rachel
Pucking Around

ā€œYou give me a chance, and I’ll be so damn good to you. I’ll treat you so right, baby. You’re it for me.ā€

Jake
Pucking Around

ā€œAnd I don’t just mean that I get to fuck you and hold you and orbit you like a satellite. I mean that you’re all fucking mine. You’re my Seattle Girl. Wear my jersey, you better be ready to wear my ring and my name, because that’s where this is going for me. Don’t fucking tease me again unless you’re all the way there too.ā€

Jake
Pucking Around

ā€œPlace yourself in our care, and we will never stop fighting for you. We will never stray, never waver. We will seek no exit. Love us and watch how we love you in return. One family. One unit. Unbreakable.ā€

Ilmari
Pucking Around

ā€œI’m a double Cancer, which means I’m an emotional fucking wreck of a human who cares too deeply and tries too hard. Maybe they shouldn’t let double Cancers go to med school. But I did, and I’m here, and I stand by my choices. I would make them again.ā€

Rachel
Pucking Around

ā€œRachel wants you in, Mars. And I will do fucking anything for that girl. She’s mine. She’s ours. I invited you to move in. And Caleb was wearing your jersey tonight if you didn’t notice. We’re all over here tryna build a pyramid, and you’re still stuck with pencil and paper asking where you fit in the triangle!ā€

Jake
Pucking Around

ā€œYou want to know where this is going. You don’t care about whatever vague visions of the future we saw for ourselves with some faceless hot wife and bratty kids. You want to know whether we see you. Whether we see this…whatever this is.ā€

Caleb
Pucking Around

ā€œBy choosing you, they chose your baggage too. That’s how grown-up relationships work, Rach. They don’t get the girl without the drama. If all three of them are sticking, and you want them to stick, you gotta let them stick, babe.ā€

Tess
Pucking Around

ā€œYou really think I could forget my Seattle Girl? Baby, you’re all I think about.ā€

Jake
Pucking Around

ā€œI want all three of you. All at once. I want to be dripping with your cum. Make a mess of me. Claim me so there’s no more doubt where I belong.ā€

Rachel
Pucking Around

ā€œI want you to kiss me like you’ll die if you don’t. Kiss me, and I’ll go back in there. Kiss me, and I’ll do the scans.ā€

Ilmari
Pucking Around

ā€œBut this isn’t just sex for me, Rachel. Hell, at this point, I’ll settle for just breathing your air. I’ll rub your feet on the couch after a long day. I’ll do your laundry. I’ll hold your purse while you shop for trail mix. That’s how crazy I am about you. I have to be me, and this is who I am. This is how I feel. Move in and be with me. With us. Whatever that looks like to you, we’ll figure it out. Just give me more than this nothing. I can’t bear another second of the nothing.ā€

Jake
Pucking Around

ā€œFor fifty points, I’m gonna rail you hard and fast. Your sweet pussy is gonna come all over my dick. And then we’re gonna walk back out to that boring party with me dripping down your thighs."

Jake
Pucking Around

ā€œYour girl likes to be shared, Cay. She likes to be fucked. Separately, together. She wants you both to devour her.ā€

Rachel
Pucking Around

ā€œI don’t melt for you, Jake Compton. I burn.ā€

Rachel
Pucking Around

ā€œDon’t think we didn’t see you flitting around in our jerseys tonight, spinning us up with your flirty smiles. You’re fucking next, Seattle!

Jake
Pucking Around

ā€œI want you so goddamn much. I need you, Seattle. Miss you. Need to fuck you. Now.ā€
