Phoenix Michaud of the Houston Lonestars cannot get Cara Oliver out of his head, even though the sassy journalist covering the team is funny, stubborn, and entirely unimpressed by him.

His teammate begins treating Cara as fair game, while she suspects Phoenix is hiding a scandal and refuses to date a player or become another puck bunny.
Phoenix remains relentless anyway, and every touch and kiss makes her reasons for staying away harder to keep.
Caught between their all-out rivalry, Cara hates how much she wants Phoenix to win.
