Feels like a damn high stick to the heart.

They say journalists should never become part of the story. Someone should've warned me before I locked eyes with six-foot-two of brooding hockey defenseman.

Hockey Rule #1: Keep your stick on the ice… and out of the coach’s daughter. On the ice, I’m a weapon. Hard muscle. Brutal checks. A temper that’s earned me too much time in the box.

For this reason, I trust very few people as I'm used to strangers and so-called friends trying to get close to us for a piece of fame.
