PRE-ORDER COMING SOON!

When you gamble on love, sometimes you lose. Or sometimes you win big.
 

Beckham
I have a problem. I’m an arrogant asshole. Well, that wasn’t a problem until recently, considering I’m also hot as hell and the best goalie in the NHL. Women tend to overlook my ego. Unfortunately, Celena Bernacki isn’t one of those women, and that’s a problem because I want her in my bed, but my ego is blocking every shot I take with her.

My usual tactics don’t work on Celena, so I’m resigned to taking things slow, making her get to know me and want me. I haven’t dated anyone since college, though, and my social skills are…rusty. I don’t trust people or their motivations, but the more I get to know Celena, the more I realize I have another problem: I want something from her beyond a one-night stand.
 

Celena
I have a problem. My best friend is working with Connecticut’s new NHL hockey team, The Hartford Hydra, and my attendance at a fundraiser puts me on the radar of the team’s hot-as-hell, six-foot-seven goalie. Why is that a problem, you ask? Because he’s also an arrogant asshole, and I don’t suffer assholes. 

Beckham Kingston III won’t give up, though, and the more I get to know him, the more I want to give in to his slow seduction. Unfortunately, I have a gambling problem, and when Beck takes a run at an NHL record, I give in to bad habits to dig myself out of an old debt. It’s a move that could have dire consequences for us both, and I need to decide if I’m willing to gamble on love instead of money.
