A novel by

 
 
She’s there to make the rules. He’s determined to break them.

Bree Morgan has never watched a hockey game in her life.

Now she has one season to drag a struggling Buffalo team into the playoffs. Pull it off and she’s the youngest partner in her firm’s history. Fail and she’s the analyst who bet everything on a sport she doesn’t understand.

Her plan in simple. Trust the data.

There’s just one problem. Jake Paxton.

The team captain is thirty-two, six foot four and out of contract at the end of the season. He plays hockey on instinct and has no intention of taking orders from a woman who thinks a spreadsheet can win a championship.

She thinks he’s arrogant and reckless. He thinks she’s all numbers and designer shoes.

So why can’t they stay away from each other?

One strict no-fraternisation policy stands between them. Her career. His contract. Everything they’ve both worked for — against the one thing neither of them saw coming.

Bree can predict every outcome.

Except falling for Jake Paxton.
