For the Love of Mike

Michaela Sparks left her hometown years ago to prove herself. When a good friend, Nancy, is killed in a terrible car accident that leaves Nancy's two daughters motherless, Michaela marries their father. Now, circumstances have brought her full-circle, back to the small town of Webster with her two adopted daughters—and the hope for a brand new start for all of them. Ethan Reigh is the new coach of the Webster Wolves junior hockey team. New in town, he rents a room from Michaela's mother, Nettie Baxter. Though an injury ended his pro career in the NHL, he never shares the extent of what's happened—the partial loss of his leg. When he meets Michaela, known as "Mike" to her friends, he's torn between hope for a wonderful new relationship—and fear of losing her if she knows the truth. But Mike has had enough of deception to last a lifetime, and she knows there can be no love without truth. Will she measure up and be able to claim the man she so desperately wants a future with? Ethan is prepared to show her how much he cares—he'll do whatever it takes FOR THE LOVE OF MIKE.
