A hockey romance shaped by power and control

Sloane has learned to suppress her feelings while navigating a life governed by wealthy, powerful men. That guarded existence is disrupted when rookie hockey player Logan York pursues her after a Stanley Cup Finals game. The setup brings professional hockey into a romance complicated by unequal power, Sloane’s resistance to attachment, and Logan’s determination to claim a lasting place in her life. The description also signals a darker relationship dynamic: Logan’s pursuit crosses boundaries, and his offer to hire Sloane further entangles romance with the client role she already knows. This edition includes character illustrations, a signed author letter, a playlist, and a story-related recipe.

Book overview

A rookie plays for keeps in this darkly seductive hockey romance from the USA Today-bestselling author of The Wrong Quarterback.

"You're going to fall in love with me. It's only a matter of time."

Trapped in a life she never wanted, Sloane is subject to the whims of rich, powerful men. She survives by playing the part, but inside she feels nothing. Because having feelings is dangerous. She's managed to stay numb for so long . . . until a rookie hockey player spots her and turns her whole world upside down.

When Logan York pulls Sloane into his arms after the first game of the Stanley Cup Finals, the crowd goes wild. But what's wilder is the way Sloane finds herself kissing him back. Logan's relentless pursuit has her feeling reckless and out of control, and she can't afford to be careless.

She refuses to date him, but Logan's not taking no for an answer. He needs Sloane to be his forever, and when he learns what kind of life she's been living he's determined to save her--even if it means hiring her for himself.

Sloane tells herself it's just another job, that Logan is just another client. But a client has never wanted her for anything more than her body before. And Logan will break every rule to get Sloane's heart in the game.

This edition features two character illustrations, a signed letter from the author, a curated playlist, and a recipe from the story.
