She had no time in her life for a man.

Least of all a swoony hockey player who was allergic to commitment.

Jules was just trying to give her kid a good life. She worked hard, kept her head down, and avoided men like the plague.

Because men were a plague.

There was a reason she was a single mom, scraping together an existence, and faking it for her kid.

She'd been burned. Bad.

It didn't matter that Cas was successful and smart and could kiss like a dream...

It didn't matter that he wanted her.

She wouldn't put her heart on the line.

Not ever again.
