Michael Boone has just one goal: to get traded to his hometown team so he can be closer to his family. But when a runaway bride who happens to be his coach’s daughter jumps into his car to escape Mr. Wrong, the heat is on ... in more ways than one.
Hard Hit by Brenda Rothert & Kat Mizera is now live!

Boone
I’m supposed to be a guest at my coach’s daughter’s wedding to a player from
another team, but instead I find myself helping her escape it. The timing
couldn’t be worse—I have to stay in Coach’s good graces to secure the trade I
need. But when the sexy, newly single redhead with legs for days shows up in my
life again, I can’t say no.
After escaping marriage to a man who made me feel like I was never enough, I
plan to focus entirely on completing my dissertation. Science has never let me
down—I can avoid emotional entanglements by focusing on cold, hard data. But
when I’m powerfully drawn to a man who is warm and, okay, I’ll admit it—also
hard—all bets are off. Mr. Right Now is exactly what I need, until both of
us find ourselves wanting the one thing we can’t have—more.

USA Today Bestselling and award-winning 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.
A typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max), Kat can usually be found 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.
Kat's 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 Las Vegas Sidewinders series, Kat loves hockey and occasionally writes articles about her favorite team, the Florida Panthers. 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...
Boone has a beloved brother who is battling Colon Cancer. His wife is not only taking care of Andy but also his son, Mason who is just one and working as well. They refuse to take any money from Boone so he wants to move back and help out.
In the midst of all this, Jolie Gizzard enters his life when he shows up to her wedding and she ends up begging him to help her run from the wedding. She is his coach's daughter, and he fears that helping her will be an issue and make the coach refuse a trade if Nashville agrees to take him.
Then life just keeps throwing them together, so he has some tough decisions to make about Jolie and his future. Jolie also has decisions to make, and she is at a crossroads of her life where she has to decide where she wants life to lead her and with who.
This is not a light read but it was a wonderful story that might even make you shed a few tears but also make you grin as Jolie is totally adorable and Boone is just so hot and a real sweetheart.
