Fooling the Forward

Ryder Goode has been my celebrity crush since he signed on with the Charleston Coyotes. Watching him race around the ice has become a favorite pastime of mine.

Despite him being one of my brother's teammates, we've never met. At least not until he cashes in on the prize he won in a charity auction-one weekend with me as his personal chef.

During those two days, every preconceived notion I have about him gets annihilated, leaving me wanting to learn more about the kind and generous man.

So when he asks me to stay on as his full-time chef, I accept. And when the two of us can't keep our hands off each other, I warn him I'll never fall for him.

Even though it's too late-I already have.

Although I might be trying to fool the forward, it turns out, I'm only fooling myself.
