Duke is a temperamental hockeyplayer who has to go to anger management where he gets to know his best remedy against anger and rage. But something threatens to take it all away. He is tough but also soft and very lovable. A real familyman and good friend.
Lila had a crush on duke even before they met but had a hard time trusting him and letting go of her fears.
The story is beautifully written, with a little bit of humor and a lot of love and fire and passion. You could really feel the pull between the characters and my heart followed the entire story in awe. Just lovely and i believe this isn't the end. I am hoping for a story about Duke's brother Austin in the future or some of his other siblings. (fingers crossed).

Duke Baldwin is so pucking charming…
I’m hockey royalty. The Baldwin name has gotten me far in the NHL.
But after I get suspended for a fight gone wrong, my general manager gives me two options— go to anger management or find a new team.
I don’t believe in therapy. But four months of sitting across from the sexiest doctor I’ve ever met has a strange effect on me.
Lila gets me to talk about the past I keep buried.
She makes me feel things I’ve locked away for a reason.
I don’t keep women around long.
But once our sessions are over, I can’t let her go…
Not when she’s the cure for thawing the ice around my heart.

Excerpt
“One date,” I say against her lips.
“Duke, I don’t know…”
I take her hand and hold it over my heart. “Can you feel that?” Lila bobs her head, and I continue, “I’ve never felt like this about another woman.”
She shakes her head. “This is crazy.”
“And I’m crazy about you.”
Excerpt #2 (in Facebook #2 post)
He bends down to kiss my neck, torturing me as he leaves kisses that burn my skin. A moan escapes my lips. I cover my mouth, hoping no one heard me.
“Keep that up,” Duke says, his voice husky and low, “and I won’t make it until the second date. You should know by now that I like breaking the rules.”
I grin like an idiot. “Who said you’re getting any on the second date?”
“It was implied.”
