Description
In the next Chinooks Hockey series by New York Times bestseller Rachel Gibson, it won't be business as usual with wild-child Faith Duffy in charge.
Faith Duffy had a very good life as the wife of a very rich, very old man. So you'd think she'd have an ever better life as a very rich widow. But her so-called friends now want nothing to do with her and she's about to fall back into the world she hated--the world of nobodies. And the icing on top? Apparently she's now the proud owner of a hockey team. But Faith is a fighter and if it's hockey they want, it's hockey she'll give them.
What does Faith know about hockey? That's the question on everyone's minds, especially that of Ty Savage, team captain. All he wants is his championship, and there's no way he's going to let Faith screw that up.
Between juggling the line-up and fighting off their attraction, one thing's for certain: this is going to be a season to remember.

Disaster Number One: Men
Hard knocks and hunger taught Faith Duffy not to believe in love. Still, when she married her very wealthy--and very old--husband, she became the perfect wife. And then he went to that big bank in the sky, leaving Faith with lonely nights, a pile of money, and a total mess of a pro hockey team. Heck, Faith doesn't even watch hockey!
Disaster Number Two: Passion
But most of America and half of Canada is watching Ty Savage. His lethal sex appeal and deadly right hook make him the favorite of fans. For most of Ty's life, he's dreamed of winning the Stanley Cup. The last thing he needs is a bimbo messing up his plans.
Disaster Number Three: Love
Faith loathes Ty on sight, but she can't stop thinking about him all day . . . and night. Then a moment of temptation ends with Faith in Ty's bed, and she begins to see there's more to him than sex appeal. Ty discovers there's far more to Faith than beauty and billions. But a relationship with Faith is impossible, and falling in love--that would be a disaster.

About Rachel Gibson
Gibson, Rachel
Rachel Gibson began her fiction career at age sixteen, when she ran her car into the side of a hill, retrieved the bumper, and drove to a parking lot, where she strategically scattered the car's broken glass all about. She told her parents she'd been the victim of a hit-and-run and they believed her. She's been making up stories ever since, although she gets paid better for them nowadays.
