Slammed
by Victoria Denault
Forever (Grand Central Publishing)
Not every goalie plays it safe...
As a publicist for the San Francisco Thunder hockey team, Dixie Braddock is too busy rescuing the players from trouble to get into any of her own. Except, of course, when it comes to the super hot new goalie. Because when a guy's kiss curls your toes and sets your heart on fire, how the hell do you just walk away? But if anyone ever catches them together, she'll lose her job faster than any slapshot.
Eli Casco is on the brink of having everything he ever wanted. He's finally been called up from the minor leagues to play on a championship team. And he just had the most mind-blowing night with the woman of his dreams. But now that he's an official Thunder player, Dixie is determined to keep her distance. None of the fame and fortune means anything to him without her to share it. If he truly wants Dixie in his life, it's time to throw down his gloves and put everything on the line.
The San Francisco Thunder series: Score

4.5 hockey loving stars!
I must admit... I love sports. So, I love a good sports romance book!
Eli is a goalie who is being called up to play in the NHL. Dixie works for the team whom Eli is about go to play for. Their romance is not allowed per her handbook. She knows it is wrong, but can't seem to stay away from Eli.
I loved this forbidden romance. More than that, I loved Eli and her corny pick up lines, his funny persona and the way her care for Dixie and her family.
This book was more about hockey. It was about the importance of family and for standing up for what you believe in. I thought it was a fantastic read!
