What's a guy to do when he's faced with policing an entire team of professional hockey players, ridiculous league rules, a gorgeous red-headed trainer and a maniac that's trying to kill her? This is the predicament Lucas Brickwald, Captain of the Louisville Blue Blades, finds himself in when his coach hires the teams first female trainer.The fact that Lucas is inexplicably attracted to Kalie Hess, and routinely making a fool of himself where she's concerned, is problematic enough. Add to it the league rules prohibiting a relationship between the two, and an unidentified man threatening to kill Kalie, and Lucas is ready to cross check everyone into the boards.Kalie came to Kentucky hoping to find nothing more than a place to belong. She's been searching for acceptance her whole life and it seems she's finally found it with the Blue Blades. Oh, of course, there are the issues of the cowardly stalker that wants her dead and the hockey hottie that will likely get her fired, but other than that, her life is everything she's ever dared to dream it could be. As the threats increase and the bodies begin to pile up, Kalie and Lucas seem to care less and less about the rules that could end both their careers. When more than one set of incriminating photos of Kalie and Lucas in compromising positions surface, Lucas takes the only steps available to protect Kalie and save both their jobs. Just when they think the stalker is dead and Kalie is safe, they find out just how horribly wrong they've been all along.
