About this book

Kellan Carter is the enforcer for the Charlotte Strikers hockey team. Off the ice, he avoids groupies and seeks a woman interested in genuine connection and fun. He becomes drawn to Kristen Robinson, a bartender, and after they share an electrifying kiss, she insists they cannot see each other again. Kellan senses the kiss meant something to her, but he doesn't know Kristen is hiding a dangerous secret. As her past resurfaces, Kellan must prove she can trust him not only with her body and heart, but with her life—and he may need to take drastic action to protect her.
