Aurora James is the perfect picture of southern grace: sweet, shy, and determined to prove herself as the youngest publicist for the Dallas Stars hockey team. She's always been focused on her work, but there's one distraction she can't quite ignore-Stetson Elwood.
Stetson is everything Aurora isn't: bold, brash, and dangerously charming. The star forward for the Stars, he's known as much for his moves off the ice as he is for his goals on it. But beneath his cocky, ranch-bred exterior lies a man who can't help but notice the quiet beauty of Aurora James.
When circumstances throw Aurora and Stetson together, sparks fly-and not just the good kind. Navigating their undeniable chemistry will take more than charm and determination; it will force them to confront their fears and their differences.
Because love is a game neither of them has ever truly played before.
But when Stetson's world comes crashing down, Aurora might just be the only one who can pick up the pieces-and help him see that some risks are worth taking.
