About
Former star player Tate Ward has become easily the best coach in professional hockey, leading the Vancouver Storm team to victory. Everyone is in love with the handsome, authoritative single dad—except Jordan Hathaway, the newest staff member on the Vancouver Storm team. Jordan was more than comfortable behind her bar at the team’s favorite watering hole. When her father threatens to sell the team, though, she’s forced to put her grievances aside and work with the man who likes everyone but her—: Coach Tate Ward. But beneath his controlled exterior, Tate is funny, encouraging, and protective. He moves Jordan into his guest house, trusts her with his daughter, and fires the person who made her cry. He’s her boss, and a relationship would ruin both their careers, but Jordan still finds herself dreaming of a life with Tate. As the lines between them blur and Jordan encourages him to be selfish, Tate realizes what he wants . . . is her.

Discussion questions for The Wild Card

Bring these to your book club — or discuss them with readers on Readfeed.

  1. 1

    How does Jordan’s comfort behind her familiar bar contrast with her new role within the high-stakes environment of the Vancouver Storm, and how do we handle being pushed out of our own comfort zones?

  2. 2

    Tate maintains a strict boundary as an authoritative coach and single dad, yet shows a completely different, protective side behind closed doors; how do public personas versus private realities shape our judgments of people in our own lives?

  3. 3

    The trope of forced proximity—specifically Jordan moving into Tate’s guest house—is a classic romance device; how does sharing a living space accelerate vulnerability and change the dynamics between two people who initially clash?
