Roughing — Kristine Allen

This is Kristoffer's story... third book in the Iced Series. Roughing: Called when a player strikes another opponent in a minor altercation that the referee determines is not worthy of a major penalty. I'm Kristoffer Halvorson, right wing and team captain for the Austin Amurs. Roughing is my penalty. It's not like I plan to do it, but hockey is a rough sport. Hockey is everything. From the minute my four-year-old feet hit the ice, I was all in and it hasn't changed since. Nothing else matters as long as there's a stick in my hands and a puck in my sights. Until Zoey. She was my friend's girl, and even though he's gone, she should be off-limits. Except I took her into my home, married her, and promised to take care of her. Little did I know, she came with more baggage than either of us expected. Now I'm mixed up in something so dark it may end not only my career, but my life. I'll pull out all the stops to protect what's mine. Things are about to get rough, but I'm not letting her go.
