He trusts his gut, she trusts her numbers, and neither trusts the other, as a billionaire’s mission to bring hockey to Seattle clashes with his passion for the woman who holds his heart.

Ethan Parker, a billionaire determined to bring professional hockey to Seattle, will stop at nothing to realize his dream. After putting down a hefty deposit on another city’s team, the sale is stalled as the parties involved evaluate their options. In the meantime, Ethan’s investors insist he go undercover during the playoffs to get the inside scoop.

Lauren Schneider, assistant director of player personnel, gets no respect from the team’s testosterone-loaded staff. When Ethan bursts onto the scene, full of charm and genuinely interested in her opinions, she shares the team’s weaknesses and discovers a weakness of her own—for Ethan. But when his true identity is revealed, and he starts cleaning house based on her input, his betrayal cuts deeply on both a professional and personal level. Bound by an employment contract, Lauren reluctantly moves to Seattle to work for the newly christened Seattle Sockeyes and her sexy, infuriating boss.

Lauren and Ethan must come to terms with their passions—for the team, for hockey, and for each other. Will their situation build a frozen wall between them, or will their love burn hot enough to melt the ice shielding their hearts?

I worked my ass off in college. My goal was to graduate with highest honors and only one thing stood in my way—my thesis. If there was any other professor grading it, I would have had it in the bag. But no, it had to be Professor Matthews.

He hates me. I don’t even know why, but he does. He’s always making me look like an idiot in front of the class. And it’s a big class too. He’s the most popular professor in school. With his pale blue eyes, that scruff on his chin, and his…well, it’s easy to see why.

Unfortunately I totally screwed up! I needed a break, just a little time away to clear my mind, so I went to my first college party. Things didn’t go as I planned and I ended up sleeping through Professor Matthew’s class when my thesis was due. He says he’s not going to give me special treatment, but I have a feeling he’ll change his mind.
