Disaster Number One: MEN

 

Hark 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 perferct 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.

 

*****

 

After reading Nothing But Trouble, I've wanted to read about the other Captain of the Chinooks. And while going bookstore-hopping with Conchi yesterday, I found the book and just have to get myself a copy. Yey! :) And i wasn't disappointed. I enjoyed this one as much as I enjoyed Nothing But Trouble. And it kinda reminded me of a book by Susan Elizabeth Phillips which also inherited a team (though SEP got a football team.. hahaha). Anyways, I guess all of us likes a sassy heroine.. and we got that in Faith and a hottie jock which of course, we got in Ty :).And the ending was funny! A love that bit about Sam ;)
