Surprise for the Sniper (Connecticut Comets Hockey, #2)

by Siena Trap

“Do you know how embarrassing it is when you find out the kid you’re about to offer a full-ride hockey scholarship is your own fucking son?”

“You should think about it,” I suggested. “If I’m going to score a goal for anyone, it’s going to be you. Might be nice to see it.”

“Please,” I begged, almost whining. The smile was audible in his voice. “You always did have impeccable manners, Liv. Since you asked so nicely . . .”

“I don’t think I’ve ever been jealous of an eight-year-old before. How do I work out a shower with Mom?”

“Who said I mind it now? All I’m trying to do is broaden your horizons, not change who you are. There’s a whole world out there, and my only wish is to give it all to you.”

“Because thoughts of you are keeping me awake, pretty girl. And I’ll be kicking myself for the rest of my life for not coming back to get you sooner.”

“Nothing about this will be like it was before. That fumbling virgin is long gone, sweet Liv. It’s time you forget about him because I’m about to fuck you like a grown-ass man.”

“You drive me fucking crazy, you know that? I don’t know which way is up when you’re around. I’ve never felt so out of control in my entire life.”

“Hey, are you okay? If you’re uncomfortable, we can stop.” His voice was filled with compassion. “You’re allowed to change your mind at any time.”

“Liv, you stole my heart at seventeen, and I don’t think you ever gave it back. That’s why everything has been meaningless since I left you behind. You kept my heart safe, patiently waiting for me to return and retrieve it. To remember where I belong, by your side.”

I rolled my eyes. “Do you ever not have hockey on the brain?” Leaning close, he whispered, “Only when I’m balls deep inside you.”
