Lucky Shot

Six weeks. That's how long my editor gave me to update my book from a baseball romance to one about hockey. A complete rewrite. Which is how I found myself in Montana, a thousand miles from home, researching hockey and preparing to meet a local expert.

There's one small problem. Or rather, a big one. A big, grumpy problem. My expert is none other than Nick Galaxy, the single dad and hockey captain I ran into minutes after landing in Montana and made a . . . Well, let's just say I didn't make the best first impression. Neither did he, for that matter. Deciphering his grunts will be nearly as hard as rewriting my entire book. No matter; I'm up for the challenge.

Oh, but there's one other teeny, tiny thing. Minuscule really. Nick has no idea his dad volunteered him to help me--and offered to let me stay in his guest cabin . . .

Tropes include: grumpy/sunshine, single dad, forced proximity, and found family.
