He's a professional hockey player trying to survive on his new team. I'm just trying to survive. I'm down to my last dollar.I live day-to-day in a world that doesn't care.Despite my bad luck, I'm a fighter.I never give up. I never stop trying.Ryan Parker's wealth and generosity, sets him apart from anyone I know.Yet, I don't trust him.It's nothing personal. I trust no one.But when my bad luck takes a turn for the worse, one person shows up.Ryan Parker. I do not understand why he bothered because the guy has enough of his own issues to deal with.But I don't have a choice.I need him. It's a matter of survival.His friendship changed everything.It changed me.I started to believe in myself.I allowed myself to trust. And for the first time, in a long time, I felt my heart beat again.In the game of love, winning is harder than it looks.I don't know the rules.I don't know how to win.But I'll play my heart out until the whistle blows.Home Game: Who's got your back when the puck drops?Read all the Guilty Series Navy SEAL romances:1.

Krista leaned forward. “You know that horror movie, where the scary dead chick crawls out of the TV and kills people?”

“Ryan,” she gasped. Her arms snaked tightly around my neck.

“I never got to teach you to skate,” I said. “Wrap your legs around me.”

I felt her legs tightly squeeze my waist. With my hands on her little ass, I hauled her further up.

I zigged. I zagged. I whipped around people and even skated backward. In my ear, her laughter was breathless. I couldn’t get enough. She smelled so good. Like strawberries or something fresh.

“I think I’m in love with you,” I blurted out.

His eyes crinkled as he smiled. “That’s good.”

“That’s good?” Disbelief traced my voice. “That’s all you got?”

“I’ve been in love with you for months. So, yeah, it’s good that you finally ’think’ you’re in love with me.”
