Konstantin

I grew up bleeding to survive, so getting paid to play the game of hockey is a life richer than I ever dreamed possible. I’ve got it all, or so I thought until meeting Lucy Cain. My teammate’s sexy sister is a ray of sunshine in my otherwise gray world. Though fighting on the ice is second nature to me, in Lucy I’ve discovered something I’ve never had before—someone worth fighting for. But will she still want me when she sees the beast inside?

Lucy

I’m leaving my life behind. As soon as I get my brother back on his feet, I’ll start over in a little seaside town to escape the dark secret I discovered about my ex. My plan hits a roadblock, though—a six-foot, inked up Russian one. My brother’s teammate Konstantin is more likely to throw a punch than crack a smile, but once I slip beneath his stoic, steely façade, I never want to let him go. As my past closes in, though, Kon and I aren’t just fighting for our future, but for our lives.

 

Easy to fall for and highly addictive! With the fourth book in Brenda Rothert and Kat Mizera’s St. Louis Mavericks hockey series we are getting to know Konstantin and Lucy, but even more important, we are getting to dive back into life with Lucy’s brother Sawyer after his loss of Annie. I enjoyed every minute of this story and always look forward to more to come in the series. Great characters, emotional turmoil and lots of sexy goodness.

Lucy is a sweetheart who was in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong guy and now she’s hiding out and trying to help her brother Sawyer pick up the pieces of his life after the loss of his wife.

Kon is gruff and sexy as all get out and is just a downright sweetheart when it comes to Lucy. I enjoyed their development very much.

I highly recommend this book as well as the rest of the series to anyone that enjoys a close knit hockey family who is always there to love and support each other through life’s ups and downs.
