Heart of a Fighter

The hardest battles are fought off the ice.

The new medical intern is a looker with killer curves and bedroom eyes–and my best friend’s sister–but I swear my frequent visits to the hockey team’s medical room are all for legit injuries.

Even the minor ones.

There are a million reasons I should stay clear of Lauren Brooks and her bedroom eyes. The Saints, our hockey team, have a strict no-fraternizing policy, and her brother, our team captain, has made it clear that she’s off-limits. But rules were made to be broken, and I’m not one to back down from a challenge.

I know the risks, but I can’t help myself. Flirting with Lauren feels like second nature, and I can’t get enough. It’s not like I’m prepared to hang up my skates and stroll into the sunset. Cuts, bruises, and broken hearts are all part of the territory.

Until one kiss leads to a night that’s anything but chaste. I’m falling for Lauren, face-off, slap shot, and goal.

Sneaking around isn’t my style, but getting caught is out of the question. Careers, friendships, and loyalty are at stake. When an unexpected incident puts everything at risk, I’m in the fight of my life to get the girl and keep her, the rules be damned.
