Crushed Ice

"When Liam Belanger gets a professional tryout with the Miami Caimans, he's hoping to land a roster spot that'll keep him from bussing tables. If he can make the team and score a tryout in bed with Russ Lyons, the veteran defenseman who's appointed himself Liam's mentor, that would be the icing on the sweet hockey cake. Living life by a strict set of rules has worked out well for Russ. He has a great career, great friends, and a great family, even if they do keep setting him up with hometown honey traps. But he can't stop time, and now, despite all his planning, he's looking at his last year with the Caimans before the uncertainty of free agency. Maybe that's why he finds sunny, free-spirited Liam so attractive. He's still not going to sleep with his rookie. Probably. Liam starts the season in the minors, but it's not long before he gets a shot at the Big Show. His year is shaping up to be a dream come true -- even before Russ picks up on Liam's passes and proves defensemen can score too"--Back cover.
