He carries a big stick. And he's not afraid to use it.
On the ice, Kellan Carter is the powerhouse enforcer for the Charlotte Strikers. Off the ice, he's just a regular guy trying to avoid the groupies chasing fame and fortune. What Kellan really wants is a woman who knows how to enjoy some good, clean fun -- and maybe a little not-so-clean fun, too. The kind of woman he'd never let go.

Kristen Robinson is exactly that woman. A gorgeous, down-to-earth bartender who's caught Kellan's eye, she finally agrees to go out with him -- and their night ends with the most electrifying kiss of his life. But then Kristen pulls away, insisting they can't see each other again. Kellan knows that kiss meant something to her. What he doesn't know is that Kristen is hiding a dangerous secret.

Kellan has already proved that she can trust him with her body and her heart. But as her past resurfaces, he'll have to prove she can trust him with her life. And he might have to get his hands dirty to do it.
