He was supposed to focus on his recovery. She wasn't supposed to fall for anyone-especially not him.

Azalea Creek is a quiet town in the North Carolina mountains-maybe too quiet for foul-mouthed, firecracker chef Rain MacAllister. While her siblings settle into their happily ever afters, Rain is stuck watching life pass her by.

Xander González is a seasoned pro hockey player with a season-ending injury and everything to lose. He comes to Azalea Creek for rehab, determined to save his career and legacy. Falling for a small-town chef with a guarded heart isn't part of the plan.

But Rain tilts his world off its axis.

And no matter how hard she tries to resist, the pull between them is undeniable. But the scars of a past trauma keep Rain locked behind walls. She spent years perfecting her defenses like a carefully crafted recipe-measured, controlled, and impossible to get past.

Even for him.

As Xander shows her that healing isn't just physical, they begin to imagine a future together.

But when the monster from Rain's past resurfaces, the life they've started to build threatens to crumble.

Will Rain finally speak her truth and trust Xander to help her slay the demons that still haunt her?

Or will fear bench them before their love gets a shot?

Unraveling Rain is a small town, hockey romance with spice, swoon and a happily ever after. It's the first book in the Azalea Creek series and it can be read as a standalone.
