About this book

Cardinal Rule When a guarded hockey player with a troubled past meets the spirited woman who refuses to let him hide, sparks fly in ways neither of them expected. He's built walls to keep people out, but she has a way of slipping through the cracks with humor, heart, and relentless optimism. As they navigate the messy reality of getting to know each other—flaws and all—they discover that sometimes the greatest risk is letting someone see who you really are. If you love second-chance vibes mixed with genuine chemistry and a hero who's worth the wait, this Wilder family story will absolutely grab you.
