The Detroit Pirates #4.5
Here Be Dragons
When the league's players go on strike, the Detroit Pirates' team owner sends in the best negotiator he knows: his sister. Ava Foster always gets what she wants, both in the board room and the bedroom. In fact, she finds negotiating with men – professionally and personally – to be quite rewarding, but when she’s done with them, she’s done. Her life is too busy to make things complicated with entanglements of any kind.
Shane Taylor takes his job as the captain of the Cleveland Dragons seriously. But with the players locked out, he's taken on a new role as part of the union's negotiating team. He intends to get a deal that’s fair to the guys he represents, and the new lawyer that the owners have sent in will have no effect on him getting what they deserve.
Except the owners' new lawyer is a force to be reckoned with. She's hot, she's smart, and her brother owns Cleveland's biggest rival. Oh, and Shane slept with her. It was a one-time thing before he even knew who she really was. But how will he ever be able to tell the players that he's falling in love with the enemy?

Short and entertaining
While the storyline involves hockey players, it’s most about Ava and Shane who start out having a one night stand at the contract negotiation meetings. She’s the secret weapon her brother sent in to help end the stalemate and get the hockey season underway. Ava is a confident, intelligent and sexy attorney and she goes after what she wants. Shane Taylor doesn’t know she’s the sister of Detroit Pirates’ owner, but she knows he’s the captain of the Cleveland Dragons.
The storyline is entertaining and engaging from beginning to end.

To the point in the best way
It was a good, easy read. Shane and Ava were exclusive. They didn't say super cringy, overtly lovey dovey things to each other within two seconds of meeting. There wasn't a convoluted overdramatic plot twist thrown in at the final hour.

A great quick read
For a short book it was a fantastic read. The author was able to bring out the personalities of the characters while keeping it a slow burn with plenty of tension.

Classic
I like when feel the love and it isn’t just sex. You can feel that in this novel. This makes all the difference in the world to me.
