When Alec Met Evie

2025

Synopsis

Evie relocates to a North Carolina mountain town still licking her wounds from a recent divorce, with a four-month-old daughter in tow and no idea what she wants next. When her new rental floods before she can move in, she ends up staying with Alec, her best friend's much older brother and pro hockey captain — purely platonic, he insists, just like he'd do for his sister. Years of unspoken chemistry say otherwise, but starting something new is risky when Evie is still healing and has no idea if Alec even wants to be a dad.

Jenny Proctor continues the Appies hockey romance series with a closed-door, best-friend's-brother romcom full of age-gap tension and single-mom stakes.
