***A Coach's Daughter, Enemies-To-Lovers, Steamy Hockey Romance***

When the rising star center forward for The Hawkeyes farm team gets a chance to move up to join the major league ranks, Penelope has to do everything in her power to keep her deep-seated grudge out of view.

The puck bunnies might all be swooning over the new tatted-up player sitting on the home bench, but she won't be fooled.

He's a wolf, disguised in a Hawkeyes jersey.

Penelope has never shared the heart-wrenching details of her and Slade's past with anyone, let alone her dad, but Slade's sudden appearance threatens to unravel her carefully guarded disdain.

Slade Matthews, her father's protégé and her college bully are one and the same. She thought she'd never have to see him again, but with a new opening on the team and time of the essence to fill it, Slade gets his chance to move up.

Now she has to hide her six-year-long grudge against the charismatic player who won't stop trying to win her over as if he forgot what he did to her all those years ago.

As Slade makes a play to win Penelope, she's torn between the past and the future.

Just when things couldn't get more complicated – an old love interest comes back into the fold, a person she met in one of the college's tutoring chat rooms that up and disappeared on her years ago has returned.

Now, with her emotions skating on thin ice, Penelope finds herself in a tangled web of attraction, heartbreak, and rediscovered connections.

Will she decide to let go of her grudge and finally let Slade in? Or is this an opportunity at a second chance with the pen pal who got away?

Loved it!

I’ve read every book in this series and they are all on the top of my love list and this one is no different!
I do love a good groveling and it did not disappoint. Slade is the best and can we talk about the tattoo he got for her when she hated him not mention how he punished himself for 4 years just to make up for what he did?! That is a man in love!
Penelope was always one of my favorite background characters in all of the other books so I was so excited to get to her book. It was well worth the wait in my opinion. No book in this series is to deep but that is why I love them. Super engaging and I never lose interest.
I do think a lot of their problems could have been solved with a bit more communication but I did enjoy the back and forth so it didn’t bother me at all.
Overall I highly recommend this book and this series!
