The
last thing Emily Jordan needs in her life is a man,
and certainly not one who uses his fists in his work.
Her father hit her mother, and Emily’s already
made the mistake of marrying a man who seemed to be
a dream come true, but proved to be no better. An
emergency room doctor and volunteer at a women’s
shelter, she sees more than enough of the results
of violence in the world, and has no use for anybody
who contributes to it.
Eric
Cameron has never met a woman who intrigued him so
much. Emily Jordan has it all…brains and beauty,
a home of her own, a career she excels at, a son who
adores her, and loving friends and family to help
her bring it all together in a way Eric has longed
for ever since he was a kid living over the ramshackle
bar his mom ran when his dad ran out on them. He realized
early on that hockey was going to be his only way
out of spending his life busting up barfights.
Will
Eric be able to win her heart despite her opposition
to the only life he’s ever known? Or when the
season ends will he move on again--alone?
