Book Description
She’s got game everywhere but the bedroom. Enter the player who knows exactly how to grade her curves . . . After a very public breakup and a viral post that declares him the villain, power forward Cal Foreman is taking a timeout from women and relationships to focus on hockey. When Chicago Rebels captain and old friend, Vadim Petrov, “volunteers” him to help train Vadim’s sister Mia, Cal figures he can do a favor for a pal and get ready for the season with his new team. But the imperious Russian would slice a skate blade through Cal’s internal organs if he knew what lessons Mia really wants. Yeah, not that kind of stickhandling. Hockey phenom and Olympics hopeful Mia Wallace needs help seducing the man of her dreams. That man is most definitely not Cal Foreman: notorious playboy, thorn in her side, and her brother's bestie. But surely a guy with his reputed skill set has a few tips on how she can nail her target—which makes him the perfect foreplayer. Cal knows Mia sees him as merely the warm-up act in her grand plan to win another man, but as they spend more time together, he wonders if that’s enough. If they could be more. And if he could convince her he’s worthy of the starting line-up . . . in her heart?

As the daughter of a Russian journalist who mysteriously disappeared, she escaped danger the only way she knew how: She married her childhood friend, Vladimir, and moved to the United States, where he is a professional hockey player in Nashville.

Ellie Before my junior year at Lincoln University, I promised myself three things. Just three. Actually dig into the whole sorority girl bit. Stay away from athletes. Seriously, stay away from athletes. When Professor Taylor posted our chem midterm partners and I got stuck with the captain of Lincoln’s Ice Hockey team, I was sure I’d be able to abide by rules 2 and 3. After all, I was immune to Leo’s whole ‘hottest guy on campus’ thing. I grew up with him— my brother’s best friend. That I’ve been obsessed with since I was eight. F' me. Leo Senior year. Captain of the hockey team, already engaged to the NHL with the perfect union months away, my whole life mapped out ahead of me. All my dreams have come true. Except for the one with Eleanor Rhodes. That one’s reoccurring, staring her in nothing but my number and that perfect little blush that shows up every time she looks at me. No biggie. I’ve worked that one out. In the shower. Numerous times. Never had a reason to get any closer than her Instagram until Professor Taylor assigned us as chem partners. The one girl on campus who shouldn’t be on my radar, yet she somehow seems to be the only one.
