Rough Ice

She's here to fix his diet. He's determined to make her job impossible. Neither of them planned on this.

Maya Rourke doesn't need another difficult athlete. What she needs is to prove herself in her first NHL job - and that means getting Cole Harrington, the Steele's grumpy veteran goalie, to actually follow the recovery nutrition protocol she built for him.

Cole Harrington has played through worse than a new nutritionist with a color-coded binder. His shoulder is fine. His protocol is fine. And the last thing he needs is someone poking around in the one part of his life he still controls completely.

Except her footnotes are from good journals. And the breakfast she recommended is better than his. And somewhere between a Pittsburgh hotel bar and a Denver blizzard, he's stopped pretending she's just doing her job.

Perfect for fans of: grumpy/sunshine romance with real emotional depth, forced proximity on the road, a hero who falls first and falls hard, sports romance with authentic hockey atmosphere.

He falls first. She kissed him first. Both terrified. HEA guaranteed.

Rough Ice is a standalone steamy contemporary romance with no cliffhanger and a deeply satisfying happily ever after.
