A librarian accidentally falls for a hockey player.
The problem?
Hadley doesn't know a thing about hockey. So, when she realizes the charming man she met in a bookstore is actually a pro player in town for the Stars and Stripes hockey tournament, she panics.
It was hard enough letting her guard down when Bryce was just a funny, charming guy passing through. Now? She has to decide if she's willing to risk her carefully organized life for a long-distance relationship with a man whose world is nothing like hers.
Bryce has spent his whole life playing hockey. After going pro, he learned quickly that most people see the jersey first and the man second. So meeting someone who has no idea who he is? That's a breath of fresh air.
He's only in town for the tournament, but that doesn't stop him from pursuing her. Spending time with her is easy. She makes him laugh, sees through his goofy facade, and suddenly two weeks in DC doesn't feel like enough.
By the Dawn's Early Light is a sweet hockey romcom featuring a Golden Retriever hero, a book-loving heroine, found family vibes, laugh-out-loud banter, and all the butterflies without the spice.
