ABOUT THE BOOK
The Phantoms are back with a vengeance… and the City of Angels will never be the same. I never asked for the spotlight, but inheriting a pro hockey team pulls me into a world of chaos.
I’m no stranger to the world of hockey but watching from the sidelines and calling the shots are two very different things. Especially when you’re not wanted.
It’s time for me to take charge and clean house.
When I need people I can trust, one man comes to mind… my ex. He’s one of the best goalies in the league, and despite what went down between us, he’s still in my corner.
It’s our little arrangement off the ice that complicates things.
If I’m going to make my power play, I need him by my side, but that means keeping our heads in the game, and our hearts out of the equation.

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...

I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
This is a book that I have been waiting and waiting to read since forever or at least through several books. And let me tell you it was just as awesome as I was thinking it would be.
If you have loved Cheap Shot then we met Harper in that book as she is Sloane's bestie, former mother-in-law and boss. Sloane is a BIG part of this book so I do suggest you read that book first. But if you don't, this book stands alone as well and is the start of a new series.
In Cheap Shot, Harper is struggling to get the Phantoms started and one of the key players she wants is her ex-husband, Gabe, who is a goalie. We also learn in that book that they were each other's first marriage, but Gabe has been married and divorced two more times and has a daughter. Where Harper, has only been married one other time, to her much older husband who has just died and left her the Phantoms. But her two stepsons, Tim and Eddie, have been fighting her for the team. All this happens in Cheap Shot. But its described in this book as well, and we also get to enjoy some scenes with Tim and Eddie as they try and stir up trouble.
In this book, the team is finally Harper's, and she bargains with Gabe to get him to join the team and move to L.A. She agrees to let him live in her pool house, because he has a messy divorce and not a lot of money. So not only are they exes but Harper is his wealthy ex who is not only his landlord but also his boss, and he also has a really cute 8-year-old daughter. Plus because of the divorce and being forced to move to a new team and new city he is extremely grumpy.
This book was a lot of fun. These two start out as enemies, they did not end their marriage on a happy note. But it was also a really awesome second chance romance with lotsa baggage on both sides. In addition, it was super fun watching Harper build her dream team.
