ABOUT THE BOOK

Never fall in love with a client.

Just one of the many guidelines you must follow when you represent the best athletes in the game.  

The rule never bothered me.  

A pretty smile from a cocky player couldn’t do it for me anyway. 

As a no-nonsense sports agent, I've seen it all in this cutthroat world of athletic negotiations and powerplays, and say what you will about me, I know how to handle business. 

The only person who pretends I’m not a freaking badass is Trent Nichols, the infuriating, albeit sexy-as-all-hell, Boston Guardians general manager. 

With his dark eyes and even darker soul, Trent doesn’t bend to my will like the rest of them, which is a problem. 

Especially since one of my hockey players is under threat of suspension. 

That can’t happen. Not on my watch. 

If Trent wants to play hardball, I’m more than happy to give him a run for his money. 

I’ll show him what a real rival looks like. 

And who knows? Maybe I’ll have a little bit of fun too. 

While the first law of being a good agent is to never fall for a client, there’s no written rule that says I can’t mess around with their boss behind closed doors. 

This is the second standalone novel in the interconnected Puckered Hearts series.

I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is Trent and Piper's story. It's the second book in the series but it also easily stands alone. If you read the first book, it runs concurrently with this book but also extends past it so you also see what happens with the first couple, Nate and Lottie. 

In the first book, Perfect Pucking Match, we met Nate and he is a hockey player on General Manager (GM) Trent's team. Nate's agent is Piper and Lottie is Piper's best friend and also a matchmaker. Lottie tried to find a bride for Nathan to help rehab his bad media reputation but instead they fell for each other. In that book we see that Trent and Piper have a very interesting relationship and in this book we get the real story behind their relationship. 

To say it is complicated is an understatement. Piper does one night stands and well Trent is an enigma to her. They start out as a fling and when Trent wants more, Piper does not and this is his story primarily.

He has a long road ahead to convince Piper that they are meant for more. Piper is desperately afraid of love and the risk to her heart and Trent wants her like no one else. Can he convince her? Will she give him a shot? Well, this story answers all those questions and more. 

This is not a light read. It has some really hot scenes and is a lot of fun as we watch Trent run after Piper. But some serious things happen in this book that made me shed a tear or two. It is wonderfully written and I really adored Trent and Piper.
