Mile High by Liz Tomforde is a sizzling sports romance and the first book in the beloved Windy City series, delivering banter-filled tension, emotional depth, and a slow-burn love story set in the high-pressure world of professional hockey. Chicago’s most infamous player, Evan Zanders, is known as the league’s favorite villain—cocky, reckless, and always in the penalty box. He thrives on the hate, the fame, and the endless stream of short-term flings.
Stevie Shay is a seasoned flight attendant who thought she’d seen every type of passenger—until she’s assigned to work on a private plane catering to an NHL team. Professional, independent, and determined to keep her distance from athletes, Stevie is not impressed by Zanders’ ego or reputation. But constant road trips, late-night conversations, and unexpected vulnerability begin to blur the lines between annoyance and attraction.
As walls come down and chemistry intensifies, both Zanders and Stevie are forced to confront their insecurities, past wounds, and fears about love. Beneath the cocky athlete persona lies a man craving something real, while Stevie struggles to protect her heart in a world built on temporary connections. Emotional, steamy, and heartfelt, Mile High explores growth, trust, and learning to love beyond first impressions.
Perfect for fans of hockey romance, enemies-to-lovers dynamics, workplace tension, and character-driven love stories, this novel balances humor, heat, and heartfelt emotion.
