If you love great characters, a good story and hoceky then Cold As Ice by Charlene Groome is a must-read!
The Warriors take to the ice again in Charlene Groome’s sensational series about hockey players and the women who love them. But the team’s new addition may have to work for a warm welcome…
Defenseman Devin Miller has bounced from team to team and city to city, but he’s finally ready to settle down-professionally and personally. The Warriors seems like the perfect fit. Now all he needs is the right woman to start a family with-and he’s willing to put in the practice to find her.
Sports anchor Carla Sinclair already doesn’t like Vancouver’s hot new acquisition. So when she’s persuaded to interview him, she’s not prepared for the chemistry between them. But though Devin seems eager to show Carla his moves-on and off the ice-he keeps his personal life off-limits. Frustrated by him in more ways than one, Carla decides to track down Devin’s secrets on her own-and soon must decide if their attraction is worth the hit to her fragile heart…
Excerpt from COLD AS ICE
“So, Devin, what do you want from me?”
He glances down at his almost empty beer. “If you want an interview, I want a night out
with you. Show me the city.”
She burst out laughing. “You have teammates for that,” she says, staring at his prickly
chin. “Ask one of the guys.”
“I plan to stay here for a while. I need to know about the city I’m playing in.”
“Do you do this in every city you play in? Get a chaperone to show you around?”
“No, this is the first.” He looks up at her and their eyes meet. For a second, Carla can
barely breathe, mesmerized by his seductive eyes, so dark they make her heartbeat carry on with
double rhythm.
She swallows hard. “For some reason I don’t believe that.”
“Believe it! Do you have a hard time meeting friends?”
“No.”
“Then it shouldn’t be a problem if we get to know each other.”
She stares at him, contemplating. “That can’t happen.”
“Why not?”
“Because…” She’s stumped. “Because it can’t.”
“You don’t think I’m good enough for the team, do you?”
