Part of Series

Rylie Malone might’ve gotten her new job with the San Francisco Strikers because of her dad, but she worked hard for her degree and is determined to prove her worth. But on her first day she discovers that the guy she had a casual hookup with the week before is a newly traded player to the team. There’s probably a rule against that in the handbook. Desmond Lachley, the Strikers’ newest defenseman, is still nursing wounds from his ex and is ready to start fresh in a new city with a new team. He was a fool for love once, but never again. A one-night-stand with a stunning stranger suits him just fine. He never expected to run into her again. Or that she’d be his coach’s daughter. Rylie’s determined to do her job, but how can she resist Desmond’s moves both on and off the ice? Desmond knows he should focus on the game, not the girl. Falling for the coach’s daughter would be a world-class rookie move, sure to land him in the penalty box, but Rylie skates past all his defenses. Can breaking all the rules lead to a lifetime of love? This is a 30,000 word novella. HEA and standalone. Coming May 2020.

USA Today Bestselling Author, Stephanie Kay has always loved a good romance, and she got hooked on the dirty ones at the tender age of 14, when she told her mother that if the cover wasn’t a bodice ripper, then there was no sex in the book. As an avid mystery reader, her mother never checked to see if Stephanie was lying. Twenty plus years later, Stephanie’s most prized possession is her Kindle, and she may have a Hallmark movie obsession. She has called California, Maryland, and Rhode Island her home, but now lives in New Hampshire with her husband where she asks him incessant questions until he escapes to go hiking in the mountains. That’s the only time she can get him out of the house so she can get her writing in. Married couples shouldn’t both work from home! Sports were never her thing, but after beta reading for another hockey author and buying NHL Game Center within one month of watching her first hockey game a few years ago, she dove into learning everything she could about the sport and the hot men that play it. Now she spends her spare time visiting hockey arenas in the name of research and loving every second of it. You can find her online at www.stephkaybooks.com, and on Facebook and Twitter.
