The Captain's Slapshot Baby

One brutal hit on the ice leaves an NHL captain in a hospital bed with a blank mind and no idea why the woman walking in looks so familiar.

Ava is gorgeous, all curves and a sharp tongue, and his family instantly treats her as his girlfriend.

He should correct them, yet the lie gives him an excuse to keep her close while she swears they are only friends.

The way they kiss makes that claim impossible, as if his body remembers a night his memory refuses to give back.

Then Ava reveals she is pregnant with his baby from that forgotten encounter, and the captain she hid the truth from is finished playing along.
