He's the star player everyone loves to hate... and she's the one person who might just be able to tame him. There's nothing Lucy James hates more than arrogant men. Unfortunately, as PR consultant for the L.A. Hawks pro hockey team, she encounters more than her fair share of them. The chief culprit? Dax Temple. He's annoyingly attractive while he cooks up one scandal after another, making Lucy's life a living hell. She has no desire to play babysitter just because management thinks it's a good idea. But suddenly, she finds herself spending far too much time rubbing elbows with him, leaving Lucy to wonder if maybe, just maybe, she's being drawn into a game she's not sure she wants to play. There's nothing Dax Temple hates more than losing. Oh, right, that and Lucy James. She's the last person he ever thought would get under his skin-but the more time they spend together, the more he finds himself fantasizing about her instead of his next win. When his biggest rival, Jack West, joins the team and starts flirting with her, Dax's competitive streak ignites. But as the tension builds between him and Lucy, it's becoming harder to tell whether they're still playing a game-or if it's something far more dangerous.
