Checking for Love by Reba Bale

They’re bitter rivals on the ice, but when they become roommates things get heated…

Toni
Despite the fact that Yvonne Volkova and I both come from hockey royalty, we’ve never liked each other. She’s the icy, controlled captain everyone respects. I’m the relentless forward who plays with heart and fire. Now the International Games have put us on the same team… and in the same room. I can handle the competition, but I wasn’t expecting the way the ice queen melts when the walls come down.

Yvonne
I’ve spent my career freezing out anyone who gets too close. Toni Lindstrom is everything I avoid — bold, emotional, and with a sunshine smile that’s impossible to ignore. We’re complete opposites, but Toni is breaking through my defenses. We quickly go from enemies to friends to something more. But when the Games end, we’ll return to opposite sides of the rink — and risking my heart might cost more than losing a game.

One night with a rival was supposed to mean nothing. The problem is, it changed everything.
