Tate Valmont has always been in control. On the ice, she's graceful and precise, and off, she is quick-witted and guarded. But Luke Maddox, her best friend's older brother and the thorn in her side, has a way of throwing her off balance. Especially after kissing her.
Luke Maddox is daring, unpredictable, and everything Tate wants to avoid. Or so she thought. His recklessness, and barbs sharp as blades, challenge her like nobody else.
When Tate's first love returns to town after breaking her heart, his presence throws everything into chaos. Old wounds reopen, and she's torn between her lingering feelings for him and her undeniable chemistry with Luke that he won't let her ignore.
While trying to focus on what she's worked for her entire life, she battles between what is known and safe and what is electric but forbidden.

Breaking The Ice
When photography student, Willow Kennedy, gets offered an internship with her college's renowned ice hockey team, The Michigan Wolverines, she anticipates three things: 1) Her twin brother being an unbearable and over-protective nightmare. 2) Her photographs not making any real impact whatsoever. 3) The team completely shutting out the curly-haired girl pointing a camera in their faces. What Willow didn't take into account, however, was the Wolverine's team captain. Rumoured NHL first draft pick, dreamboat and total game changer- Tate Wilder. With his infectious dimpled smile, sparkling green eyes and addictive personality, Tate quickly turns Willow's internship into a life-changing and eye-opening experience- one filled with love, friendship and opportunities. Willow didn't meet the Michigan Wolverines looking for love, and funnily enough neither did Tate, but love soon found them. ********* "Pretty please?" Her lip juts out in an irresistible pout and you'd almost think she was a sweet innocent flower judging by the puppy dog eyes she's flashing me. But that image is little tarnished by the hand she has dipped into my boxers. I can feel my Adams apple bob as I reply. "O-okay. Fine, you win this time." The smile I get in response is absolutely blinding. A full, mega-watt grin with teeth, crinkled eyes and blush on the apples of her cheek. I'll let her win everything if I get that fucking smile in return.Complete
