Professional hockey star Sarah Brennan can handle brutal body checks and playoff pressure, but studying Irish literature under the sharp-eyed Professor Claire Joyce might be her toughest challenge yet. Claire's disdain for athletes is legendary--and personal, thanks to a failed marriage to a pro athlete. The only catch? Her hockey-obsessed ten-year-old daughter worships the ice Sarah Brennan skates on.

As Sarah contemplates life after her final season, she finds herself drawn into the warm orbit of Claire's small family. But with Claire's walls built as solid as center ice, it'll take more than a hat trick to prove that sometimes the best plays happen after the final whistle. OVERTIME * is a charming romance about second chances, found family, and scoring the goal that matters most.*
