Publisher's summary

My name is Tess Owens, and my life is officially on fire. I never thought dancing at my best friend's wedding would be the match to light the flames. But with one lingering touch, one longing look . . . and one sneaky caterer holding a camera phone, my almost ex-husband is ready to torch my entire life.

Unwilling to face the heat, I do what I do best: I run. Straight into the arms of Rachel and her team of NHL hockey players. One player stands apart from the rest. Jacksonville Rays star forward Ryan Langley is out with an injury. I get the surprise of my life when he shows up at my door, declaring himself my roommate.

Now I have six weeks to launch a new business. Six weeks to fight for my freedom . . . all while fighting my growing attraction to this All-American sweetheart. Did I mention he's ten years younger than me?

I want to believe him when he says age is just a number. I want to believe that our pasts don't define us forever. But first I have to stop running. With one innocent dance, Ryan Langley helped me start this fire. What if we're meant to fan these flames? What if, together, we're meant to burn?

Contains mature themes.

Amazing!

This is a fantastic sequel to the first story and I love Tess and Ryan's journey.

Amazing Chemistry

What a great continuation of the Jacksonville Rays world. Tess and Ryan were everything I didn't know I needed and wanted after the Price family story. Their chemistry is exquisite. All of their conversations make me smile.

I loved them as characters. Despite their decade+ age difference, they were able to meet each other where they are and find common ground. They really balanced each other out - Tess with her experience (both in life and in the bedroom) and Ryan with his stability - they make a fantastic couple.

I love seeing Tess' growth coming out of a toxic relationship and work environment. She really had to let go of some damaging coping mechanisms in order to see the good in the people around her and to be able to put some trust in them to help her move forward. She's so relatable. She's confident, but not always. Gregarious, but not always. She's multidimensional and a great partner to Ryan who needs some direction while she needs his loyalty.

And Ryan. Oh Ryan. I can't say enough about him. He's respectful and commanding while at the same time being so sweet and eager. I love all the different sides Tess brings out of him. I love how he encourages her to be her best self without actually asking her to change a thing.

I also loved the little glimpses into the what the Price family is doing. Ilmari's story builds on the foundation we have of him (which I honestly don't think was nearly enough) in Pucking Around. He was always so put together, I liked seeing some vulnerability from him.

And of course the spice is out of this world - I would expect nothing else from Dr. Emily Rath.
