  Lioness. That's the first word that comes to mind when I see the brilliant redhead selling cupcakes at the hockey arena. 
   
   
   
  With the soul of an artist and the spirit of a nomad, Bea Turner is gorgeous, quirky, and refreshing. She's also my teammate's little sister. 
   
   
   
  As the Tennessee Thunderbolts' Rookie, I should steer clear. I'm here to play hockey and provide much-needed financial security for my family. To do that, I need to avoid distractions. 
   
   
   
  Bea doesn't just distract me; she flips my world upside down. One bad joke has me pursuing her. One date and I crave more. Calling her mine? Well, now I'm dreaming of a future. 
   
   
   
  The life of a hockey player—trades, travel, uncertainty—isn't for the heart of a creative. Bea desires adventure and possibility, not early morning skates and strict exercise regimens. 
   
   
   
  When I'm thrust into a situation at odds with Bea's dream career, I know I can't hold her back. If we're meant to be, we'll make it work. But what if we're not? What if my greatest regret is letting my lioness go? 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.
