Grace Kensington has been my secret crush since we were kids.

Though she is definitely all grown up now.

Long blonde hair, big blue eyes, and curves that could bring even the toughest hockey player to his knees. She's the full package, too—smart, funny, and as real as they come.

One might go as far as to say perfect. Except for one tiny detail: Grace is my coach's daughter.

And she just walked back into my life. Apparently she's doing an internship for the team.

The last thing I should do is get close to her again.

So the plan is to keep my distance.

But that plan flies out the window the very first time we run into each other…and I'm naked in the locker room.

It was supposed to be a simple assignment: stake out the golden boy hockey player Cole “Mac” Mackenzie as he exited the arena after a Los Angeles Blades game.

Follow him.

Get dirt on his personal life—something salacious to please the money-hungry gossip rag I worked for.

But I missed the moment Mac left the building. Or so I thought…

Twenty minutes later, I saw actual Mac exit after the media left. Apparently, he'd used a decoy to throw off the press—waiting until everyone left to make his getaway in private.

I started following the real Mac, and got more than I bargained for.

He led me to a mystery building tucked away in the middle of the suburbs.

Turned out, he was going to… a private club.

A club that wasn't for the faint of heart—as I'd soon find out after sneaking in.

I wasn't expecting to connect with Mac inside. Nor did I anticipate him to invite me back as his personal guest.

What started as a simple assignment turned into something much more—my biggest fantasy I never knew I had.

This wasn't about the tabloid story anymore. I lied to my boss, told him there was nothing to see.

Meanwhile, I kept returning to the club.

I was addicted to unraveling the mysteries of Mac's world.

Addicted to the man who lit a fire inside me.

But—with my own secret—it was only a matter of time before I got burned.
