Ice in the Bayou (Bayou Kings Hockey)

Lucca Calvaricci

What do you do when your dreams go to Hell in a handbasket? You find a new dream.

At least, that's what I did. It just took me a decade to do it.

See, once upon a time, I was flying high on the ice until an accident destroyed my hopes of going pro. Now, I want to start my own team, but to win over the league, I need the best in the PR business.

Enter Maxine Andrews. She's sexy, sassy, and loves a challenge. This little spitfire keeps me on my toes, and I want to make her mine.

Maxine Andrews

I'm the best sports PR rep at Capital Time Media, and one of the best in the entire country. That's not pride, it's just a fact. When my boss informed me Lucca Calvaricci from Calvaricci Enterprises wanted to meet with me, I was intrigued. His company was into everything from real estate, to big pharma, and even cybernetics. What did he need me for?

Color me surprised when he told me he wanted to start his own professional hockey team and wanted me to pitch it. This was definitely a challenge I couldn't back down from.

The only problem? The man was sex on a stick and I'd sworn off all men-excluding my son.

And yet, somehow he gets through all of my walls. But can I really trust him with my heart?
