Blurb:
He’s always hit them and quit them...
Xander Richards, a winger for the Wisconsin Wendigos, has a reputation for never sleeping with the same person twice. Some say it’s ‘cause he doesn’t have any heart, but if you asked him at his most honest it’s because his heart isn’t his own: he’s hopelessly in love with his best friend and former linemate, who’s now happily married and traded away to Seattle last season.
Playing the ice has always come easy...
When Xander asks out Jordan Darling, team trainer and massage therapist, he doesn't expect to get shot down. It’s a first, but it only makes Xander that much more determined to make Jordan his. But Jordan wants a relationship, not just the one-night stands that make up Xander’s sexual life.
Just when he thought his heart was on ice, love comes skating in...
What Xander doesn’t know is that Jordan has been nursing an unrequited crush on him for over a year. Lonely without his best friend, when he finally opens his eyes to what is right in front of him, the chemistry is undeniable. And for once, it keeps Xander coming back for more
Is Jordan the other half of his heart? Will Xander put his player days and ways behind him? Or will he push Jordan away to find someone who deserves him?

REVIEW
I love a good romance involving hockey players. And this one did not disappoint.
I love a good romance involving hockey players. And this one did not disappoint.
In the beginning, Jordan has a big crush on Xander, which isn't easy to handle at times since he is a massage therapist for Xander's hockey team.
When Xander asks him out, Jordan says no. He knows that Xander is a big flirt, who sleeps around a lot, and never does repeats. He does not want to be stuck working with Xander after being a one night stand. Jordan is looking for someone to marry and have kids with. Xander is not.
When Xander's friends suggest he just be friends with Jordan, he agrees. And they start to hang out a lot. Eventually, they start sleeping together. Xander still thinks they are just a short term thing. He isn't looking for love.
In the end, he discovers that he is demi-sexual. And now that he has gotten to be so close to Jordan, he is falling in love with him.
I found this book to be very good. It flowed well, the sex was hot, and I was really routing for their relationship to work.
I also really enjoyed the secondary characters, Xander's two best friends. They provided some great humor and insight into Xander's life.
