Colt "Wrecker" Maddox has a simple job: hit people, protect his teammates, and don't complain when his body pays the price. As the Portland Riptide’s notoriously reckless enforcer, he knows he’s a disposable asset. Play through the pain, or get replaced. Dr. Nolan Greer doesn't do reckless. As the team's Director of Sports Medicine, he operates with rigid, absolute control and impeccable professional distance. When Colt tries to skate on a torn groin muscle, Nolan shuts him down with a clinical authority that leaves Colt completely unmoored. The rehabilitation protocol is strict: 6:55 AM sessions, mandatory stretches, and complete submission to Nolan's treatment plan. But under the doctor's demanding, careful hands, Colt's defenses begin to crumble. Nolan doesn't just want to fix Colt's hip; he wants to dismantle the walls keeping the young enforcer isolated and surviving on scraps. And the quiet, intense praise Nolan gives him for simply letting go is more addictive than the adrenaline of a fight. Crossing the line between doctor and patient could cost Nolan his pristine twenty-year career and Colt his hard-won roster spot. But as the playoffs loom and the physical therapy blurs into something deeply, desperately personal, Colt realizes he’s finally found something worth being good for—if he’s brave enough to let himself be kept. The Recovery Position is a high-heat, high-emotion MM sports romance featuring a strict-but-doting doctor, a reckless hockey enforcer, and an age gap that hits all the right spots. Intended for mature audiences only.
