Kings of the Ice

Journalist Maven King lands an opportunity of a lifetime when she is assigned to get up close and personal with the Tampa Bay Ospreys' new shiny hockey player. Too bad that Maven has already met Vince at an all-star gala—and they were at each other's throats the entire time. Tampa's hotshot rookie is a rich, cocky playboy—a brand Maven is all too familiar with, and one she's determined to never be around again. But Vince, with his messy brown hair and heated hazel eyes, gets under Maven's skin like no one else, and it isn't long before that paper-thin line between hate and lust blurs.

But when the universe throws Grace and Jaxson back together two weeks later on a secret road trip, all bets are off.

He was the one my brother assigned to keep me safe — and I had far too much fun tempting him to be the one to put me in danger.

When she moves into Will's pool house, everything changes.
