He ate at our table and learned to drive in my dad’s truck. He was my first kiss, my first everything. And he promised he’d come back from England.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe didn’t. I spent ten years building a life on the other side of that—an after-school art program for underserved kids. And I was fine—mostly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThen the New York Knights called about a sponsorship that would save my studio, and there’s a six-foot-four British problem attached. Henry is now the NHL’s most penalized enforcer. A bad reputation, a viral hit, and twelve weeks of PR-mandated charity work to clean up his image. He picked my art studio off a list and claims it’s a coincidence. I know better.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwelve weeks. That’s all I have to survive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExcept he kisses me in a power outage like the last decade didn’t happen. My family is suddenly thrilled he’s back. And he’s hiding something—something they all seem to know, but nobody’s telling me.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI lost him once. I’m not sure I’ll survive losing him twice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI’m even less sure I’ll survive \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003ekeeping \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehim.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTropes:\u003cbr\u003eBritish MMC · Second Chance · Forced Proximity · Slow Burn · Grumpy\/Grumpy · Protective Hero · Found Family\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Wallflower Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46828972572833,"sku":null,"price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/6517\/6737\/files\/IMG-7956.png?v=1786056884","url":"https:\/\/thewallflowerbookshop.com\/products\/bad-reputation-pre-order-kendall-ryan","provider":"The Wallflower Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
