Bess is new employee working for an established sports agency.  With her birthday coming up, her boss invites her to dinner with some new clients.  She figures it will give her experience, so why not go?

Mark AKA "Tank" is excited to be chosen to work with the team in New York.  He was more than pleased to meet such a sexy woman at dinner too.  Maybe they should get to know one another?

This was a quick jaunt into the lives of some very talented characters.  I was pleased to get to read their "meet cute."  Right from the beginning they are attracted to each other.  The fact they are intelligent only adds to the attraction.  We see these amazing characters again in the current book Sure Shot. 

This is book #4, in the Brooklyn series, & #7, in the Brooklyn Bruisers series.  This book can be read as a standalone novel.  For reader understanding, and to avoid spoilers, I recommend reading these great series in order.

Bess is coming back to live in New York.  She had been here before for a brief time.  Where she met the sexiest man she had ever met.  Now, her plans are her focus.  To build hre business and keep her future on track.

Mark AKA "Tank" has come back to New York as well.  He has not planned the messes that keep him following him.  Newly single, he has to get used to a new team, and try not to feel like his reputation is falling apart.

This story was full of surprises.  I would read, turn the page, and be surprised again.  With an incredible series to keep up with, I was overjoyed this was a book that moved me deep down to my soul.  I loved the banter.  The friendships are sold, and the pace was nice and steady.  All around a solid and great read.  I give this a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

Hockey player Leo Trevi has spent the last six years trying to do two things: get over the girl who broke his heart, and succeed in the NHL. But on the first day he’s called up to the newly franchised Brooklyn Bruisers, Leo gets checked on both sides, first by the team’s coach—who has a long simmering grudge, and then by the Bruisers’ sexy, icy publicist—his former girlfriend Georgia Worthington.
 
Saying goodbye to Leo was one of the hardest things Georgia ever had to do—and saying hello again isn’t much easier. Georgia is determined to keep their relationship strictly professional, but when a press conference microphone catches Leo declaring his feelings for her, things get really personal, really fast....

In high school they were the perfect couple—until the day Georgia left Leo in the cold...
