He knows every play in the book. But she's calling the shots.

I'm Maddox Ledger, all-star winger and the reason the Charlotte Strikers killed it in the playoffs. Yeah, the tabloids like to call me arrogant. A real hothead. All I see is a guy who plays to win. Wreaking havoc on the ice, breaking a few hearts—that's all just part of the game. And I'm sure as hell not sitting on the bench.

When my teammate asks me to be in his wedding party, I can't refuse. Lucky for me, the bridesmaid I'm paired with is the definition of eye candy, but she's so much more than that. Lacey Easton is totally irresistible and she makes me want to be a better man. A glimpse of bare shoulder takes me back to a steamy, two-week Vegas tryst I can't forget. One I'm eager to repeat.

Suddenly our one-night stand is turning into the sequel. Still, Lacey's keeping secrets. She doesn't trust me. And maybe I deserve it. But I know more than she thinks I do and there's no chance I'm letting her get away—or letting another guy take what is mine. This time, I'm playing for keeps.
