Listen to a sample of King of My Heart

His downfall began long before the injury that took him off the ice.


One catastrophic hit during a nationally televised hockey game ends Brennan McCallister’s career. His freedom on the ice, his fame, his identity—gone in seconds. Reeling from the career-ending blow and the crushing media attention that follows, Brennan escapes to a secluded cabin he bought, desperate to find his new normal.


He never expects to find Amy Delgadina there—or realize that seeing her after all these years will shock him worse than the hit that ended everything.


She was once the queen of his heart before an explicit photo of her flooded the internet and shattered the future they planned. Brennan believed the rumors instead of believing in her. He walked away to protect his shot at the pros—and broke her in the process.


Now? He’s moved to her town.


What Brennan doesn’t know is that the photo was taken without her consent—and Amy has the proof.


Amy isn’t the same girl he left behind. This compact ball of fury is one of the youngest and most respected STEM teachers in Oklahoma—a woman who rebuilt her life after erasing her digital shadow. Running into Brennan again feels like reopening a wound she fought hard to close.


Except, the chemistry between them is impossible to ignore.


Amy’s determined to protect the life she fought for. Brennan is determined to uncover the truth he walked away from all those years ago. Yet, every time they clash—emotionally or physically—the pull between them is harder to deny.


But when the source of the photo steps back into their lives, will Brennan choke under pressure or will he win the only game that matters—love?

About the Author

Tracey Jerald has been making up stories for as long as she can remember—starting on bike rides through her Connecticut neighborhood and escalating to rewriting book endings instead of finishing college assignments. (In her defense, happily-ever-afters and Greek mythology both deserve proper attention.)


That lifelong love of storytelling eventually turned into the Amaryllis Series, and from there, an ever-growing catalog of emotionally rich contemporary romance and women’s fiction.


Tracey is the best-selling author of more than thirty novels, including the beloved Amaryllis Series, Midas Series, and Glacier Adventure Series. Her books are known for their heartfelt emotion, strong heroines, found family, second chances, and swoon-worthy romance—often layered with humor, angst, and just enough realism to make the happy endings feel earned.


Her novels are available on Amazon and free with Kindle Unlimited, and she has also contributed to multiple anthologies supporting both reader enjoyment and charitable causes.


When she’s not writing, Tracey is living her own happily ever after in north Florida, where she’s been married since 2007. She and her husband have one son—who is just as devoted to Fortnite as Tracey is to coffee. You’ll often find her plotting her next story, training for a runDisney event, or indulging her HGTV habit while convincing herself it totally counts as research.


If you love emotional contemporary romance, strong women, meaningful relationships, and stories that stay with you long after “The End,” you’re in the right place.
