Publisher Description
Being stranded in remote Canada with a hottie?
Wasn’t part of my summer plans.
Dump my cheating ex? Check.
Land an amazing job with Boston’s professional hockey franchise? Check.
Fall stupidly in love with hockey’s favorite bad boy? Ugh.
After wasting years of my life with the wrong person, I told myself all I wanted was a little no-strings fun. Enter Alex Braun—a wealthy, handsome, notorious playboy who’s equal parts charming and dangerous as hell to my wounded heart.
After enduring a very public breakup of his own, the sexy player doesn’t want to be anyone’s forever. Too bad he barreled his way into my heart, instead of just my bed.
But this professional athlete knows a thing or two about competing, and he won’t let go so easily.
Warning: This romance contains one grumpy, emotionally damaged, but gorgeous-as-hell hockey player, and a whip-smart, hardworking heroine who has never quite fit in. It should only be read by those who like their men brawny and their romances red-hot!
Customer Reviews
Steamy Hot but Sweet
Aspen gets a summer side job at Saint’s cottage along with Alex. Both coming off a bad relationship, they decide to have a rebound fling as their chemistry is sizzling hot and explosive. They must fight past their past hurts and learn to trust in order to reach their HEA. This book is part of the Looking to Score series. Though it can be read as a standalone, I think it is even better if you can read the rebel first as it talks about Alex’s past relationship.
I am so happy to read Alex’s story. He didn’t come across as a good guy in the Rebel so I am glad to see his real personality and it to showcase that perhaps people just aren’t at their best if they aren’t in the right relationship.
I received a free advanced review copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving my fair and honest opinion.
Awesome read

Tugs on the Heartstrings
The Alex in this story is a far cry from the Alex we see in The Rebel and I, for one, am so happy to see how this character has matured. Alex and Aspen’s relationship is so absolutely sweet but also well balanced, and I really enjoyed how authentic this story felt, without contrived drama. This series just gets better and better!
