Description

Evan Zanders is Chicago’s most infamous hockey player.

Talented, cocky, and unapologetically arrogant, he thrives on being the villain everyone loves to hate. Whether he’s racking up penalties on the ice or leaving arenas with a different woman every night, Zanders has built a reputation he fully embraces.

Then Stevie Shay enters his life.

Stevie is the new flight attendant assigned to the team’s private plane, and unlike everyone else around him, she refuses to be intimidated by his fame, money, or attitude. Professional, confident, and completely unimpressed by his ego, she quickly becomes the one person Zanders can’t seem to get under control.

What starts as constant bickering and button-pushing slowly turns into something neither of them expected.

Every road trip brings them closer, blurring the lines between irritation and attraction. Stevie knows getting involved with a professional athlete is a mistake she promised herself she’d never make again.

But resisting Zanders becomes harder the more she sees the man hiding behind his reputation.

Because beneath the arrogance and swagger is someone far more complicated than anyone expected.

And the more time they spend together, the more dangerous the chemistry between them becomes.
