Thin Ice, Book 2
Renee Lavoie did not become the best sports journalist in the league by falling for surfaces. She has watched Ben Kowalski charm every room for eight years, and she knows the grin is armor. He is the Portland Wolves' funniest player, their emotional backbone, and the saddest person nobody notices. When a story that could end both their careers forces them together, Renee has to decide what matters more: the truth she was trained to chase, or the man she was never supposed to want.
