About this ebook

He's a Special Forces veteran making his pro hockey debut. She's a dogged sports reporter determined to get a scoop. She's also his best friend's widow . . .

Fans can't get enough of Levi Hunt, the military veteran who put his NHL career on hold to serve his country and fight the bad guys. So when his new Chicago Rebels bosses tell him to cooperate with the press on a profile, he's ready to do his duty. Until he finds out who he has to work with: flame-haired, freckle-splashed, impossibly perky Jordan Cooke.

The woman he should not have kissed the night she buried her husband, Levi's best friend in the service.

Hockey-stick-up-his-butt-serious Levi Hunt might despise Jordan for reasons she can't fathom--okay, it's to do with kissing--but her future in the cutthroat world of sports reporting hangs on delivering the goods on the league's hottest, grumpiest rookie. So what if he's not interested in having his life plated up for public consumption. Too bad. Jordan will have to play dirty to get her scoop and even dirtier to get her man. Only in winning the story, she might just lose her heart ...

In this standalone free romance set in the Chicago Rebels world, a new generation of players take to the ice and learn that all's fair in love and hockey.

4.5 stars I love the Chicago Rebels so I'm so excited to have the next generation of the team having a series. This series kicks off with a bang. I loved Levi. He was in the Special Forces and now starting his hockey career. That right there has me intrigued. It's something different and there is more history when it comes to Jordan. Jordan is a sports journalist. She's a woman in a man dominate arena, but she knows her stuff and now she needs to prove herself she belongs with the big boys. Her story on Levi could make her career. Levi and Jordan have a ton of chemistry, There is humor in the book that I just loved. I devoured this book and it was hard to put down. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.

I really enjoyed this standalone read that is set in the same world as the Chicago Rebels. I found the storyline to be entertaining and it held my attention well. Tension, drama, emotional turmoil, humor, romance and social commentary are woven throughout. I liked Levi a lot. He was a really good guy and quite swoon worthy. I enjoy them broody and that description I feel, fits Levi perfectly. Jordan was spunky, determined and upbeat. I liked these two as a couple and thought they had good chemistry. Both the past and the present are obstacles on the road to a HEA for this couple. This was a very good read and a solid start to this new series.

I am not a fan of hockey or sports players, but I was intrigued when I read the summary of this story. Glad I gave it a try. Levi Hunt joined the Special Forces as a Green Beret, to fight for his country and now is back to the sport he loves. Jordan Cooke, a young report , has been assigned to get a story on Levi. A story that can make her name known in the sports writing world. A world filled with backstabbing and a lot of competition. But what I didn’t mention is that these two have a history. She is the widow of his military best friend, and the woman he kissed the night of the funeral. The plot was engaging, and the characters complex with a strong woman character. I always enjoy seeing that . I am looking forward to what else the author has in store for us in the next book of the series.
