Ryder Kingston
Acting on impulse is my specialty, but hey, I’m a man of action.
My reckless words land me in hot water when some jerk captures a moment meant for my teammates' ears only.
Unfortunately, the video goes viral and turns me into public enemy number one.
To rehabilitate my image, my agent demands I undergo sensitivity training—whatever the heck that is. With my new hockey team thinking I’m not worth the trouble & considering trading me, yet again, I’m forced to agree.
The biggest issue? My golden boy of a tutor and new housemate is none other than my childhood best friend-turned-enemy, Knox Contraire…who probably still hates my guts.
Forcing us together is bound to teach me a lesson, I’m just not so sure it’s the one I’m meant to learn.
Knox Contraire
You think you know a guy until he turns on you and makes your life a living hell.
In a twist I didn't see coming, my best friend became my biggest enemy, and I lost the person closest to me.
Hurt, fear, and betrayal pushed me into the closet. My career as a tight end in the NFL has kept me there. Now, I live quietly to keep others comfortable, even if it means missing out on the life I really want.
In an unexpected turn of events, I’m thrown into the spotlight when my past shows up on my literal doorstep. If I want to keep my job, I have to take him in and teach him how to control his troublemaking mouth.
The only problem is I don’t know how to let Ryder Kingston back into my life, while keeping him out of my heart.
He’s here to learn a lesson, but what happens when the teacher becomes the student?
