Synopsis (Goodreads):
Everyone knows the girl is off limits. But it's so good to be bad.

There's this girl...
Heidi and I have been trading hungry looks all year, and everything she does makes me smile. But I don't do girlfriends, and I certainly can't get involved with the league commissioner's daughter. I need shots on goal, not a hookup and a widely misunderstood paparazzi photo.
Can I resist her, though? The way she teases me should be a game penalty for interference with my libido.

There's this guy...
Jason wants me, but he won't admit it. That man looks at me the way a hockey player eyes the lunch buffet after practice--and I love it.
But when victory is finally within my grasp, I blow it and humiliate myself. Even then I can't even avoid him--as the team intern, I'm in constant view of his hard body and cocky smile.
I need another chance. Jason Castro is about to learn the true meaning of an overnight sensation.
Thoughts on Overnight Sensation: Oh man. Heidi was the bouncy intern in Rebecca's book and her...enthusiasm, let's say, was kind of funny when seen through Rebecca's filter. The thing is, Heidi IS enthusiastic and very much a team player and she's just...I don't know. She's determined. And fun-loving. And desperate to stick it to her father with the way he's trying to force her into a direction she doesn't want to go.

I LIKED HEIDI. I liked her bravery in telling Jason what she wants. I liked how she muscles through everything asked of her with a single-minded determination. I liked how she tried to stay upbeat even when life was working pretty hard on holding her down.

As for Jason, he's struggling as the year opens. He wants Heidi, but he doesn't do relationships and he's pretty forthcoming about that. Imagine his surprise when the seal breaks and they do the deed only for Jason to realize once isn't going to be enough.

Hot looks, fast cars (HA to Heidi showing Jason how to handle his car, btw), one disapproving hockey commissioner, and some STEAMY times between the sheets. Jason and Heidi worked for their time together (and poor Silas got an eyeful or two. WHOOPS!) and I'm ONE HUNDRED PERCENT loving them.
