5 STARS!

Be prepared to not want to put it down!  Razor is such a sweet, lovable guy even though he’s supposed to be a big and tough hockey jock … and you can’t help but want to take Tori under your wing and protect her.

Ray Chambers, AKA Razor, defenseman for the Tulsa Thunderbirds was in Vegas for his best friend from his Portland Storm days bachelor party and wedding.  He’s partying with his buddies when he sees her.  He can’t ignore the haunted look in her eyes even as she’s trying to entice him into noticing her.

Viktoriya Dubrovskaya is desperate.  Her father is dead, she’s resorted to every horrible way she can come up with to get money to live on, but when she loses her place in dance school and her student visa, she has hit rock bottom.  When Razor offers to marry her to solve all her problems, she takes him up on it.  It can’t be any worse than where she’s already been.

Razor wants to protect Tori from the past that haunts her and guard her from any further pain.  He insists she see a doctor to try to work through the damage her lifestyle caused her both physically and mentally.  Will there be any future for them? They didn’t marry for love, and she’s definitely a tortured soul .. is there even a glimmer of hope that they can enjoy a life together?
