Worth the A West Coast Hockey Romance Roman Graves, captain of the Los Angeles Knights, finds himself in a media frenzy when intimate photos of him are leaked by a woman he doesn't even remember. “Grounded” by his personal assistant, Roman is stuck at home for the remainder of the NHL holiday break as he awaits his fate with the press. Grace Fairchild is busy. When she's not working towards her personal goals; a masters degree and interning at a high end facility, she’s delivering Thai food to afford her life in Los Angeles, California. She doesn’t date, she doesn’t go out, she doesn't shop, she's just really, really busy. When a chance encounter brings the unlikely pair together, Roman and Grace start as a slow burn, but ignite like a forest fire. As they outwardly allow their connection to deepen, they both grapple in private with hidden secrets that threaten to shatter their newfound love. Worth the Wait is a hockey romance with a little bit of hot hockey players, independent women, fun banter, junk food, hot tubs, first dates, and the ultimate dilemma of honesty for the sake of being honest, or holding out on your secrets for the sake of saving face in the present.
