Front Matter
Memphis Mayhem – Book 2
Justine Rupf’s entire life was built around hockey, from her father’s Stanley Cup win when she was a kid to running the hockey themed bar, Sin-Bin, across from the Memphis Mayhem’s hockey center. She thinks of most of the guys as brothers except for the one who stole her heart years ago and has never given it back.
Mark “Matrix” May knows his days as a professional hockey player are numbered, and he wants to spend the final years of his career in Memphis for several reasons, the most important being Justine “Ruff and Ready” Rupf, the girl who has always been the one for him. But last season when Mark was injured, he pushed Justine away in favor of the team owner’s daughter, Avery, a puck bunny who was always looking to hook up with a hockey player.
Now that he’s in Memphis to finish out his career, Mark wants nothing more than to make things right with Justine. However, Mark didn’t make it to Memphis based on talent alone, and now Avery is in town ready to blackmail Mark to get what she wants. She shows up just in time to ruin everything for Mark and Justine, but neither of them is willing to give up on what they’ve always wanted.
After several steamy encounters and a few kisses that are hot enough to melt the ice, Justine and Mark realize they have to do whatever it takes to be together. But Justine isn’t sure if she can compete with sex kitten Avery, and Mark isn’t sure if he’s the man Justine needs.
He has a decision to make, and he knows no matter what he does, he’s going to end up in the Penalty Box, a place known to hockey players as the Sin-Bin.
