Second

Bryce has lost everything he loved. Michael is rebuilding a life built on lies. Is their love worth fighting for? In the high-stakes world of professional hockey, Michael "Zeetoo" Zhang had the potential to shine brighter than his older brother, but he chose a treacherous path, and the scars of past failures and the constant shadow of his brother's success haunt him. He's had a run of bad luck, and is angry at the world, and his resentment intensifies when he's arrested, then sentenced to work supervised hours at an inner-city community garden. He's already lost hockey and his house; how can he afford to lose anything else? Bryce Kincaid is chased by his own demons, and years after the mistakes he made, he's determined to never lose control again. He's built something stable and good from the wreckage of his life, and the last thing he needs is a pampered celebrity anywhere near his beloved community garden project. When Michael arrives, he's a broken man wrapped in a fiery package, but the gardens work their magic and reveal a vulnerability in Michael that Bryce can't resist. He's terrified to open his heart, and their growing relationship might be nipped in the bud. To change his life, Michael must confront his past and fight for a future he's never believed he deserves. But when that past threatens to destroy everything Bryce has built, their love could be over before it's begun.
