Power Play

She’s an old flame…and now she’s my boss. I’ve been one of the top goalies in hockey for fifteen years. At this stage of my career, I should be winding down. Instead, I’m traded to the worst team in the league. The same team my ex now owns. Not only that, part of the deal is me being able to live in her guest cottage. And that kind of proximity is dangerous. In spite of everything, the chemistry between us is still off the charts. But that’s not happening. Between spending the summer with my nine-year-old daughter and gearing up to take on a leadership role with the Phantoms, I don’t have time for the drama that comes with getting involved with Harper. Some things are inevitable, though. All eyes in the hockey world are on the only female owner in the league, and if we’re going to make a power play, we need to work together. But that means keeping our heads in the game, and our hearts out of the equation.
