ABOUT THE BOOK

Professional hockey player Sergei Petrov has had a rough time after the tragic loss of his wife. Playing hockey and taking care of his son are all he has time for, all he wants.

Getting traded was not on the agenda. Neither was a sexy, hockey-playing nanny to further complicate things. Star college athlete Danielle Cloutier may dominate the rink, but off the ice, she’s an amateur. She has been trying to get rid of her virginity for years, but guys are always intimated by her strength. That’s about to change when she meets her new boss.

 Chemistry between them sizzles, hot enough to melt the most frozen of hearts, but Danielle can’t afford to get attached. Not when she’ll be leaving soon. Sergei doesn’t know what to do with the sexy, stubborn woman, but watching her turn his new house a home makes him wonder if she’s exactly what he needs.

 Can he come to terms with his feelings before she skates out of his life for good?  

 

About the Author: 

Kat Mizera is a South Florida native. Born in Miami Beach with a healthy dose of wanderlust, she’s called Los Angeles, Long Island, upstate New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Atlanta home. She’s never been able to pick which locale is her favorite, but if pressed, she’d probably choose the west coast. Kat’s a typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max). 

When she’s not writing, she’s either scrapbooking or indulging in her second love (after writing) – traveling. Greece is one of her favorite places in the world. She loves that Athens is a big city with a small-town feel. The food, beaches and culture keep her going back as often as possible. She hopes to retire there one day so she can spend her days writing books on the beach. 

Kat has been a working freelance writer for nearly 30 years. She sold her first article–a review of a rock concert–for $10 in 1985. Since then she’s been an entertainment journalist, waitress, bartender, legal assistant, food critic, magazine editor, substitute teacher, and sports writer. She also spent some time working at A & M Records in Los Angeles.

 As you can guess from her series, the Las Vegas Sidewinders, Kat loves hockey. She is also a freelance hockey writer, covering her favorite team, the Florida Panthers, and any other teams that have an interesting story. The rest of the time, she writes novels: sexy, romantic fiction that she hopes makes you as happy as it makes her. There’s something enticing about hockey players and romance…

This book is #1 in a new series but it also continues on the previous hockey series. This story is about Sergei whose brother is Toli from Toli and Tessa. Toli is kinda miserable when the book starts. He is a widowed hockey player from Russia whose wife was killed when she put herself between him and her father, a mob boss. Now he has been traded to a horrible team in Alaska.

I have never read any of the previous Toli stories and I am a recent fan of the author and so I have read other books in the series but none about Toli so Sergei was this new character for me. I really enjoyed the book and I was not lost whatsoever coming in as a newbie to the characters.

The book opens up when Sergei  goes to visit his brother and to get his son who has been staying with Toli while he moves to Alaska. He arrives when a friends sister of Toli's is there also and hears his son call her mommy D. The woman is Dani, and she is a young, gorgeous woman who is a star Hockey player but she is also Zakk's baby sister, a teammate from a previous book as well.

Anyways it is lust and hate at first sight but Dani wants to go for the Olympic Gold and so she has a summer with nothing to do so Sergei  hires her to nanny his son in Alaska. And that is where things get HOT and the two start to fall for each other.

But Dani has the Olympics and Sergei  comes with a lot of baggage and can they make it work? Well I am not spoiling that. But I LOVED this story. It is sweet, romantic and very HOT.
