The Nighthawks are hockey’s new expansion team. They’re ice hot. And they’re all about the chase. Christian: They call me a hockey god because I’m a beast on the ice . . . and off. Men want to be me and women just want me. But now that the New York Nighthawks expect me to lead their team to victory, it’s all work and no play. My eyes are on the prize. Until I meet Serena Ellis, a sexy, curvalicious blonde who doesn’t know me from jack. And just like that, I’m hooked. Serena: I don’t do one-night stands—especially with celebrity jocks who date models. Lots of models. But the god of hockey is a temptation that’s hard for mere mortals to resist. And after the best kiss of my life, I’m ready to throw my one-night stand rule out the window. Except Christian Chase won’t let me. He doesn’t want a one-night stand. He wants it all.

Todd's the best in the league and model-perfect. Damn shame he's not gay...or is he? Dating Todd "Pretty" Carty is a trailblazing, headline-grabbing ride that has shocked and divided a team, a sport and a nation. While controversy rules, our feelings explode and we can't deny the desire that sizzles between us. Nothing, however, is easy outside the bedroom. Not when my world-class, fearless athlete wants to shout from Everest that he's in love with a man. Laying my heart on the line and having my picture dominating the papers is worth it, though. Everything about Todd turns me on. His bold hockey skills, his courageous attitude and the way he melts in my arms when I kiss him. I melt, too, because he knows how to press my buttons and remind me of the man I used to be, and he takes me to those places where ecstasy rules. The world might have trouble accepting us, but we're committed to each other, mind, body and soul, and nothing can change that.
