Publisher Description
This new stand-alone hockey romance is an instant USA Today bestseller!
There’s this girl...
Heidi and I have been trading hungry looks all year, and everything she does makes me smile. But I don't do girlfriends, and I certainly can't get involved with the league commissioner's daughter. I need shots on goal, not a hookup and a widely misunderstood paparazzi photo.
Can I resist her, though? The way she teases me should be a game penalty for interference with my libido.
There’s this guy…
Jason wants me, but he won’t admit it. That man looks at me the way a hockey player eyes the lunch buffet after practice—and I love it.
But when victory is finally within my grasp, I blow it and humiliate myself. Even then I can’t even avoid him—as the team intern, I’m in constant view of his hard body and cocky smile.
I need another chance. Jason Castro is about to learn the true meaning of an overnight sensation.

4 “Sensational“ Stars
With a name like Heidi Jo you can almost picture her before you meet her. Bubbly rich girl, who calls her daddy “Daddy” and wants for nothing. On first impressions she fits the stereotype, and admittedly I fell for it hook, line, and sinker. I wouldn’t be only one guilty of making those assumptions of her as it seems members of the Brooklyn Bruisers also came to the same conclusion of her, but it’s nothing being in her company for few minutes didn’t fix.
It’s glaringly obvious how much of a hard worker Heidi is. Strong willed to the point of stubborn, she’s determined to be appointed the position of Office Manager for the team. Her father being the NHL commissioner does not believe it’s a suitable job for his Princess and goes out of his way to assign her roles he hopes will make her reconsider and return to her education.
Her days are long and hard, which is where Jason Castro enters the picture. Heidi has a shameless crush on Castro and none too wisely propositions him whilst under the influence of tequila. Given his dedication to single life and his attraction to Heidi a harmless hook-up looks likely, that is until the hook-up that never was appears to potentially harm his career.
The forbidden element to their friendship was both hilarious and sweet torment. They became a great little duo, intimate in all aspects of their lives but carnal. As the story developed so too did the depth of their affection for one another, and the weaknesses they kept well-hidden became the glue that cemented the transition from friendship to much more.
With a story that has been a long time coming, Castro is anything but an Overnight Sensation. He’s poetic and grounded, and humble in a manner of ways. I enjoyed getting to know him and loved what he brought on and off the ice.
Along with the well-loved members of the team I found it hard to fault any of the characters. The Brooklyn Bruisers series is one that delivers time and time again. I’m hoping Silas’ book is up next up for the Sarina Bowen treatment.
