I played hard and lived even harder. At least until the mayor of River's Bend got it in her head that the hockey players carousing through her small town in Nowhere, California were unwelcome. I couldn't care less. My priorities were pucks, puck  bunnies , and pucking my way to the top.

I underestimated that her matchmaking abilities might be on point. I underestimated that her niece might be … The woman who would lay claim to my heart. Contains mature themes.
