The Penalty Box Principle

Some secrets are worth hunting. But some hunters become prey.

Sloane Emerson has one goal: to expose the Blackwood Wolves hockey team for what they really are. Armed with rumors of a leather-bound "Black Book" listing the women they've exploited, she breaks into their equipment room in the dead of night-ready to gather the proof that will bring them down and clear her father's disgraced name.

But Nico Volkov, the team's ruthless Enforcer known as The Reaper, catches her red-handed. With gray eyes as cold as winter and a presence that fills every inch of space, he holds all the power. He knows everything about her-her past, her fears, her desperate need for justice. And he offers her a choice no one should ever have to make:

Work with him to tell "the real story," or watch her reputation-and her father's-be destroyed for good.

Trapped in a world where the line between hero and villain is blurred, Sloane must decide how far she's willing to go for the truth. Because in Nico's arena, there are no rules for the prey... only the ones he makes.
