Book overview

Niko Koskinen, captain of the Green Bay Bobcats, is one of the most talented hockey players in the NHL.

 

He may be a hero to hockey fans around the world, but there's only one person that matters to him-his daughter.

 

Sadie Wilson has been an outcast her entire life-with a passion for chakra stones and yoga, she's trying to find her place in Green Bay.

 

When Sadie is hired by the Green Bay Bobcats, she starts to think she may have finally found her place in this world.

 

And then in walks the sexy, single dad desperate to find someone to help look after his daughter.

 

After Sadie offers to help Niko with childcare and admits she's about to be homeless, he in turn offers her a place to live-his home.

 

In such close proximity, the two of them not only share wholesome moments with Niko's daughter, but they also exchange heated glances and stolen touches.

 

The line between control and surrender begins to tremble under their gazes.

 

Will they be able to let their insecurities go and let each other in? Or will their tarnished pasts get in the way of true love?

 

The Perfect Assist is a spicy single dad sports romance with a professional hockey player, a yoga instructor, forced proximity, mutual pining and a guaranteed happy ending.
