PUCK (A BAD BOY HOCKEY ROMANCE) Read Online Free
Author: Jessica Marx
me, as I expected it would, I’m finding myself getting slightly aroused. Now I’m more disgusted with myself than with him. I remember that I’m trying to make a pot of coffee and push a couple more buttons before Puck reaches over and takes charge of the seemingly simple task.
“I hope you can navigate your way around a stove better than a coffee maker,” he teases.
“I don’t know why they have to make a coffee pot so complicated,” I say, frustrated. I finally look up at him and my cheeks are flushed - not because of his comment, but because I can’t believe the thoughts that were going through my head just seconds ago.
“Easy, girl. Don’t get so upset about it,” Puck replies with a wink, mocking my tone. He quickly shows me how to operate the machine and it’s set to make a pot coffee, “see, it’s not too hard once you know how.”
He walks over to the fridge and pulls out another bottle of water. He uncaps it and takes a long drink from it, tilting back his head and I find myself staring at him. His body is in amazing shape. The tattoo that I saw on his arm continues up over his shoulder and onto his back. It’s some kind of tribal thing which doesn’t matter to me, I’m just admiring the way it accents his well defined muscles. I watch his Adam’s apple bob up and down as he swallows the water and I can’t resist lowering my gaze to his torso and his perfectly formed abs. I look away before my eyes move any lower. I do not want Puck to catch me looking. I’m having trouble comprehending why I’m staring at him in the first place. Regardless of what I see on the outside, I know how ugly he is on the inside.
“I’m going to shower,” Puck informs me after his long swig, “I’ll be back for for coffee in a few.”
I don’t say a word; I’m still standing at the counter lost in my own thoughts. This cannot be happening. I’ve barely been here for an hour and it’s already awkward - just in a completely different way than I expected. I’ve despised this man for most of my life and in a matter of minutes I’m thinking about him in a whole other way.
When we first met, when our parents became serious with each other, I instantly had a crush on Puck. Once I really got to know him though, I realized the true meaning of a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He is an arrogant, nasty person and I must keep reminding myself of that before these other thoughts take over.

W hat a way to start my morning. I can really get used to seeing Dani’s pretty face every day. I’ve heard about how wonderful she is in the kitchen, and I’m sure she is, but I don’t even care. I just want her here. I need to show her how much I’ve changed and get her to accept who I am now. I never knew how to be honest with myself in the past so there’s no way I could have been with her. But once I hurt her bad enough, once I lost Dani for good, I knew I had to change. I had to do it for myself, even if it was already too late for Dani.
Having her here now though is giving me new hope. She may not have wanted to look at me, but I felt the spark when we were close. Even for just a few moments, I know she felt the same attraction from our past. I felt her eyes on me when she thought I wasn’t looking, felt her gaze move over my body.
I hired Dani with the belief that over time, even if it’s just one season, I could get her to just like me again. At least get to the point where we could communicate, where I would be able to apologize sincerely and she would believe me. Now I want more. I want her to be mine.
Dani had always been a beautiful girl, but now she is a gorgeous woman. With her small frame and long blond hair, she doesn’t look like someone who spends their days in a kitchen. She manages to keep herself fit and slim which only calls more attention to her perfectly set breasts and great ass. I’m sure she doesn’t want me around when she is working, but I would love to spend some
