The Breakup Project
Book 1 of the Original Six Hockey series
374 pages · First published 2021
Bree Karlsson begins the new year determined to stop dating athletes, an understandable resolution when her twin brother is one of professional hockey’s biggest stars. Mike Vaughan, her brother’s best friend and teammate, has loved Bree quietly and agrees to help with her project in hopes that she will finally see him differently. Their friendship makes him the safest possible person to confide in and the most dangerous person for her new rule. The first Original Six Christian contemporary romance combines hockey, friends-to-lovers tension, faith, and a New Year’s resolution that becomes much harder to keep once Bree notices the man who has been beside her all along.
