L.A. Quakes’ fans stomped their feet to cheers of “Caveman!” when I made incredible saves in the crease, leading the team to two Stanley Cup victories. I thought I could go on forever, but at thirty-six, the clock’s counting down even for Lincoln Cavanaugh. Social media and fan sites are filled with rumors of me being traded. Or worse. My future looks as uncertain as a loose puck on the ice.
My fate rests in the hands of Catherine Bishop, daughter of the team’s owner and a power to be reckoned with. And what fine hands they are, along with everything else about her. A chance encounter leads to sparks between us, but is falling in love with this incredible woman worth the risk?
Because with her by my side, I’m once again an unstoppable force between the pipes, and victories pile up like never before. However, our love is a ticking time bomb because Catherine has dreams of making history as the first female and person of color to own an NHL team. Sleeping with a player would make that all go up in smoke. I fear when the truth comes out, it will be the final buzzer for us.
Between The Pages
As a fan of hockey, this book was a must-read. The dual authors wrote a captivating story, starting the Los Angeles Quakes Hockey Series. An engaging and dramatic plot holds your attention from beginning to end. Lincoln and Catherine were a perfect match. Their attraction was undeniable and steamed heat off the pages. There was also a great supporting cast with my favorite part being the genuine friendship between the players. The behind-the-scenes of the game of hockey was interesting and provided a good visual. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.
