Redtails Hockey: Volume 2
(2024)(A book in the Redtails Hockey series)
An omnibus of novels by Stephanie Julian
These hot hockey gods will melt the ice and steam up your nights...
THE ENFORCER
Veteran player Will MacDonald is a tough guy who’s not afraid to drop his gloves in defense of his teammates. But he’s never met a woman who's made his heart pound as hard as a good fight. Until a chance collision with a curvy brunette who dismisses him makes him want more than she’s willing to give.
Jess Gardiner has been around hockey all her life. Her dad taught her everything he knows about the game as an NHL scout, and she believes Will is just what the young Redtails team needs. He brings grit and determination and stability. He's just not what she needs in her life, even if he is huge, hot and hard-bodied. Will is used to fighting for what he wants but winning Jess's heart might be the toughest battle of his life.
THE INSTIGATOR
Derek Flaherty can goad any opponent into throwing down his gloves with a few well-chosen words. Off the ice, he can talk a woman into dropping her inhibitions (and her panties) in seconds. His teammates love him...when they don't want to gag him. From the moment he sees Sophie, Derek discovers what it's like to be struck dumb. For two seconds. Then he does what he does best. He charms his way into her bed. But can he charm his way into her life?
Sophie Tsoukalos is well acquainted with chaos. As a waitress in her parents' bar and favorite aunt of her four sisters' kids, she's used to dealing with drunks and toddlers. But she's never met a man like Derek. His panty-dropping smile entices her to let loose and invite him into her bed. She never expected this playboy to want to stay. But when Derek pushes for more than she's prepared to give, will Sophie give him heart? Or let him slip through her fingers?
