Penalty Kill — Alicia Sparks

Book 1 in the Memphis Mayhem Series Becca Bramlett finished her Ph.D. and flew to Vegas to celebrate with a friend. She had no idea the Stanley Cup Championship was being played in Sin City or that the hotel where she'd be staying would be swamped with loud, obnoxious hockey players. One in particular caught her eye and irritated her beyond belief when he and his buddies decided to party in the hallway at 3 am. As soon as she confronted him, jabbing her finger into his sexy chest, she knew one touch would never be enough. And God, could the man touch! Nothing had prepared Becca for Axl or the hot weekend they'd spent together. What they did together in bed would be burned in her mind forever. But, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas â€" or so she thought…. Ten years later - Nick Hartijay's team, the Memphis Mayhem, is poised to become media darlings, a success story of an underdog NHL team who makes it to the Cup. The only problem is - Nick's temper is getting the better of him. With heavy fines and suspensions, it's difficult to focus on his game. The team's owner has a solution to the problem - bring in a fresh face, someone new to the hockey world that can help the team with their media image. Becca is that person. As soon as Becca sets eyes on Nick, she realizes he's THE ONE from so long ago, the guy who set her on fire and left her wanting more - Axl. Why does he pretend he doesn't know her? Or was the weekend not as memorable for him as it was for her? Confused by her feelings, the new job, and the sexual longings running through her body, Becca knows the only way to keep her sanity is to stay away from the handsome blue-eyed coach. The only problem is - the harder she tries to stay away, the more she wants to end up in the penalty box with him! *Content Warning: May content adult scenes and graphic content.
