Slayers Hockey

In my defense, I didn't know she was his sister...This team hates me. Something about my chronic case of resting prick face and that thing with the captain when the season started. My fist, his jaw. Yeah, we go back and not in a good way. Coach says no more "confrontational BS" or I don't play at all. And that's a hit my career in the NHL can't take. So the plan is simple. Keep my head down and finish out my contract with my fists checked. There's just one problem. Allie. The girl from Vancouver eight months ago. The one with the sexy, shy, and sinfully bold smile and the sweetest, wettest mouth I ever tasted. The girl who blew my mind and then blew out of my life without giving me her number. Turns out she's the captain's little sister. And even though my career depends on it... I can't stay away from her.

One look and I know...this chick hates me. I should walk away, find some puck bunny to gleefully sit on my lap and tell me what a big, hot, hockey stud I am-totally true, BTW. But there's just something about this feisty redhead I can't let go. She's got an edge to her that's sexy as hell and a smart mouth that's been tying me up since the night I met her. She tells me to forget it, we're not happening. But this isn't the kind of woman a guy ever forgets. Especially when the air starts to sizzle and pop every time we get within ten feet of each other. She's in my head and under my skin, and all I can think about is the way she looked at me that one time. Like she already knew how it could be between us. I'm not the kind of guy a girl like her takes home...But maybe I want to be.

Yeah, she's hot as sin, but she's also my best friend. So, eyes up here...Cammy’s my best friend. The one person I can't live without. The girl with the sunshine smile, the loaded fridge, and the most awesome kid I've ever met. She's also the hot AF single mom I've made it my mission to protect from guys like me. And I won't risk ruining our friendship by pushing for something more. I can't be her forever. I'm not that guy. I'm the good time. The class clown. The hockey stud. I'm the happy for now, not the happily ever after. I stay in my lane, but when Cammy's ex needs a lesson, the rash overprotective part of me jumps the boards and I go from best friend to fake boyfriend in the span of a kiss. And that's just the beginning. Because when it comes to Cammy, there's nothing I won't do for her. Even if it's guaranteed to wreck me.
