Описание:
Jonah: I'm the NHL's toughest enforcer, the Body Checker, and I earned that title the hard way. I'm all about the game, a no attachment, no strings kind of guy, so when a puck bunny shows up at my door, shoves a pink bundle into my hands and drives off into the sunset, it turns my world upside down. I'm not cut out to be a family man. I know nothing about babies and I'm the last guy who should be taking care of one. But I do know someone who is equipped for the job-Quinn Reed, my best friend's kid sister. Problem is, she kind of...hates me.
Quinn: Jonah Long...a father? Move in and help take of his daughter? Crazy as that sounds, I agree to the temporary arrangement, for the child's sake. Problem is, living with the guy I've crushed on since forever, is messing with my body as well as my brain. And now, watching him grow as a man, seeing the bond between father and daughter build, I can't help but want this family for myself. But we're just playing house, and Jonah isn't interested in making this ready-made family the real deal...right?

Описание:
Zander:
In the NHL, I'm known as the Hard Hitter but my puck-handling skill isn't my greatest accomplishment. That would be my four-year-old daughter Daisy and I'll do anything to protect her. I'm careful who I let into our lives, but the more I'm around Samantha, my daughter's speech pathologist, the more I'm reminded of how long I've been functioning solely as a dad. I don't want to trust her, don't want to get close. I don't want to fall in love with her or her big, welcoming family but sometimes, don'ts have a way of becoming dos, no matter how hard you fight it.
Samantha:
Getting involved with a client's father is a strict "no," but when Zander shows me how good he is at talking bad, it sets off a firestorm of need hot enough to melt the ice in the rink he plays on. I'm not good at relationships and have basically given up on men, but a brief fling with a dirty talking hockey player sounds pretty good at the moment. I didn't expect to actually fall for him and his daughter, or that it would be so good, but leave it to me to do the one and only thing that taps into his darkest fears and incinerate the fragile trust that's built between us.
