Hook 'em Hard

Maeve Carter, the Boston Bucks' team physiotherapist, is the definition of beautiful.
As a former model, her stunning looks have defined her-just ask the paparazzi or the stalker who made her life miserable. But I see more. Want more. And she can never know that.
You see, she's my oldest teammate's daughter, and I can't touch that with a ten-foot hockey stick. Until a single mistake puts her in my bed, turning everything upside down.
You know what they say about the best laid plans-pun intended.
I should walk away. I need to walk away. Except now that I have her where I've always wanted her, I'm hooked...hard.
But then we have to fake a relationship to appease my meddling mother.
Only problem is, I don't want to fake it anymore.
What do you think I should do about that?

I've been reading romance novels for as long as I can remember. I just never thought I'd be writing them. In fact, I graduated from university with a business degree and started working in the Finance Department of Environment Canada...shiver. A few years into my career, my hubby, who's a meteorologist, got posted up north, population 800. I quit my job and went with him. At first all the spare time was great, then I got bored so I started to read. Day and night. When I ran out of books to read I decided to try writing one. After all, how hard could it be. Ha!! Well, you guessed it. It was hard!
Many years later I discovered Romance Writers of America and have learned a great deal since joining my local chapter. My journey to publication hasn't been smooth sailing, but with the support and guidance from the wonderful writers at RWAC, it's been a lot easier. And a lot more fun!
I'm very fortunate to have a husband and two children who have been supportive in every possible way. On those frustrating days when I'm banging my head against my desk I look up to see a heart shaped sticky note on my computer that says I love you because you naver give up.
