Hooked on the NHL Star: He Came Back for Me
The first time Mia Conti saw Elias Weston, she didn't even know his name.
She just knew he was tall, absurdly good-looking, and effortlessly lifted her heavy suitcase for her at Toronto International before walking away without a word.
Until she showed up as a new intern on the NHL team's medical staff and found herself face-to-face with the league's most arrogant, untouchable superstar—and his very wrecked, very uncooperative shoulder.
It was him. And he remembered her too.
A fiery, secret romance ignites between them, yet it burns out within a year.
Mia had spent twelve months convincing herself she was fine with that.
Now a respected lead physician for the upcoming Milan Winter Olympics, Mia has moved on...until Elias reappears on the official athlete roster.
He finds her before she can even brace herself. Perfect smile for the cameras, cool and composed. Then she turns to leave, and his hand closes around her wrist.
"Long time no see, Mia."
The flashbulbs are still going off somewhere behind them.
"I came back for you."
An ocean between them didn't kill what they had. It just put it on ice.
And Elias Weston has never once been afraid of thin ice.
