Connell (Carolina Reapers Book 3)

I’m famous for two things—being one of the best defensemen in the NHL and my classic pranks.<br />My teammates always said one of my jokes would bite me in my Scottish arse one day, and they were right.<br />After a prank goes wrong, I’m sentenced to six weeks community service under none other than the sexy, rule-abiding, smart-mouthed city clerk of Sweet Water—Annabelle Clarke.<br /> <br />Lucky for me it’s offseason.<br />Unlucky for me?<br />I want Annabelle like I want my next breath.<br />She’s smart, luscious, and wound-tighter than a Scottish drum.<br />Och, I’d love to be the one to help loosen her strings.<br /> <br />She’s made it clear that while I’m under her employment, she won’t be under me.<br />The white-hot chemistry we can’t deny must be ignored at all costs.<br />But bantering with her is soon my favorite pastime<br />And she’s the sweetest forbidden fruit I’ve ever tasted<br /> <br />As we grow closer, one thing is absolutely clear<br />A summer with Annabelle Clarke can only end one of two ways:<br />Satisfaction or surrender.<br />And I can only hope we can weather the storm when the sky inevitably crashes down on us.<br />
