Pucking Around

Rachel Price thought she had pulled off the perfect escape: one magical, nameless night with a man so sweet and hot it should have been illegal, followed by a clean break. No strings, no regrets, and zero expectation of an encore. But when she walks into her career-defining fellowship as the new physical therapist for the Jacksonville Rays, she comes face-to-face with her "Mr. Perfect", who happens to be the NHL’s most notorious playboy grinder. The ultimate insult? The jerk doesn’t even recognize her.

With a ten-month fellowship on the line, Rachel is determined to stay professional, but the locker room is a minefield. While Mr. Perfect Mistake is suddenly desperate to get back on her good side, his best friend, the surly, tattooed equipment manager, seems intent on riding her case at every turn. To make matters worse, Rachel is locked in a battle of wills with the team's uncooperative goalie, who is clearly masking a season-ending injury and refuses to let her in.

Rachel knows that falling for a player, let alone three, is a professional death wish. She’s worked too hard to risk her reputation on a team of high-stakes athletes who are used to getting exactly what they want. But as secrets are revealed and boundaries are pushed to the breaking point, Rachel realizes these men aren't just playing for the Stanley Cup, they’re playing to win her heart. And in this game, the traditional rules of engagement are about to be shattered.
