Role Model by Rachel Reid

Acknowledgments

This book, like all of my books, would only be a fraction as good without my amazing editor, Mackenzie Walton. I’d also like to thank my wonderful agent, Deidre Knight, for story notes, hockey gossip, and general cheerleading. Huge thanks as well to my friends, fellow authors, reviewers and readers who encourage me and have shown my fictional hockey boys so much love. And special thanks to Jenn Burke for her Ottawa expertise (although any Ottawa-based mistakes are definitely my own).

This book was written entirely in 2020 during the pandemic and I am enormously grateful to my husband and kids for giving me time and space to write even when we were all trapped together. Also to my parents and in-laws for taking the kids off our hands from time to time, which made it easier to write sex scenes.
