Boy Next Door (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781661878801)

This is a story about losing the path and finding yourself. It contains kissing, yelling, spanking, and carb-loaded family interventions.

Hockey superstar Joey Luciano has always been good at being whatever people needed him to be. But the cracks in his mask are starting to show, and he's begun to lose touch with who he really is. It's going to take someone who's been there from the very beginning, to help him find his way home.

Coach Liam O'Reilly always had a very clear picture of what his life should look like. Falling in love with the infuriating, passionate, stubborn, and endlessly fascinating boy next door was not part of the plan. But when Liam's carefully constructed life fell apart one Christmas Eve, Joey Luciano was there to pick up the pieces. Now Liam can't stop wanting him.

The passion blazing between them on the ice and behind closed doors could leave both of them badly burned. But through the smoke, Liam can see glimpses of a future brighter than any he'd imagined, a future worth risking his career and reputation for, if only he is brave enough to reach for it.

But Joey's got a secret he's keeping from everyone. If it gets out, it could be the end of his career.
