Words may be sports journalist JJ Fairchild’s tool of trade, but when it comes to the bedroom, dirty talk escapes her. Sinfully handsome football superstar Trevor Wyatt has lusted for the sassy southern woman since before he retired. Now that she’s back in his life, Trevor’s not going to miss his second chance to show her just how good they could be together. And teaching her to loosen up and say what she wants, out loud, is just the cherry on top. He’s an excellent teacher and before JJ knows it, she’s asking for everything she craves.

Book Description

Hockey is a hard-hitting, beautiful, bloody, exciting, bruising, stunning game and at the top level it is a ballet. Very few of the thousands of young players who dream of it ever make it to the National Hockey League, and then very few of them become super stars, the best in the business, in the history of the sport. Most of these dynamic players are retired or gone now, but their spirit lives on with the teams where they played and in the rinks where they skated. In most of those rinks, their names are displayed high up in the rafters, and most of them have their names engraved on one of the rings of the famous Stanley Cup. This book tells of their lives, their love of their game, and where they are now.
