Alles beginnt mit einer Wette. Single-Mom Presley Sullivan kehrt in ihr Heimatstädtchen zurück, als ihr kleiner Sohn Alex die Hälfte eines Bed & Breakfast von seinem Urgroßvater erbt. Die andere Hälfte geht an Alex’ Onkel, den berühmten Quarterback Levi Miller. Doch der Neustart steht unter keinem guten Stern, denn Presley und Levi sind wie Hund und Katz und können sich einfach nicht einigen, wie es mit dem Palm Inn weitergehen soll. Schließlich lassen sich die beiden auf eine Wette ein, die über die Zukunft der Pension entscheiden soll.

Women throw themselves at me, hoping I'll take them home that night. Whispers from the NHL say I'm the one to watch. And the weight of each game is on my shoulders because if our opposing team scores… that's on me. All the things that keep me up at night are probably someone else's dreams.

One of the cardinal rules of matchmaking I was positive I'd never break. That is until Nathan Wilder walked into Love Moore Matchmaking Agency, needing my help to find him the one. A tall order to ask since he was the most hated man in the NHL. Broody. Crude. Abrasive. The man was a six-foot-three walking red flag.

But there was something in his sad, soulful eyes that just pulled me in.

Between long hours in the ER and failing to please her demanding father, Dr. Alexa Collins barely has time for a life, and the strain is starting to take its toll. On a rare night out, she can’t resist getting a little crazy on the dance floor. Or playfully crooking her finger at the sinfully hot football player watching her every move. And when a dance leads to some hot, stress-relieving sex, she’s all in with Luke Thompson. He’s just the no-risk diversion she desperately needs. When Luke proposes they spend some time together, Alexa can’t say no.
