Pucking Wild

by Emily Rath.

My name is Tess Owens and my life is officially on fire. I never thought dancing at my best friend Rachel’s wedding would be the match to ignite the flame. But with one lingering touch, one longing look . . . and one sneaky caterer with a camera phone, my almost ex-husband is ready to torch me, professionally and personally.

So I do what I do best: run. Straight into Rachel’s arms in Florida, where she’s the team doc for the NHL’s Jacksonville Rays. Star forward Ryan Langley is out with an injury and in need of a place to rehab. I get the surprise of my life when he shows up at my door—declaring himself my new roommate.

I came here with six weeks to launch a new business and fight for my freedom. Now I have to fight my mutual attraction to this charming All-American sweetheart too. Did I mention Ryan is ten years younger than I? He doesn’t need my drama. But it’s getting harder to deny the way he makes me feel. Wild. Fun. Free.

I want to believe that our pasts don’t define us forever. But first, I have to face my fears. Because with one innocent dance, it was Ryan who helped me start this fire. What if, together, we’re meant to burn?
