It involves hot hockey player Nils Sten. He plays for the Atlanta Thunder and happens to be my overprotective brother's best friend and teammate.

He's also my secret crush.

Unfortunately for me, Arden wouldn't approve of anything happening between me and Nils. Not now, not ever.

Too bad, because I'm going to make it happen-Nils will be mine, maybe for just one night of fun, or maybe for forever.

***

My name is Nils Sten, and hockey is my life. So much so that I haven't had a serious girlfriend in ages. That's okay; I find companionship when I need it.

And now it seems I'm about to have a whole lot of it. Not in any kind of a romantic sense. More in a roommate sort of way. See, my best friend and teammate's little sister, Ellie, is about to move into my house. Yeah, under my roof...with a bedroom down the hall from mine.

God help me.

It's all my fault, really. I opened my big mouth and offered for her to stay. Now I wish I hadn't. Problem is, Ellie is beyond beautiful. She's smart too. She's really everything I've ever wanted.

Too bad she's off-limits.

Now I just need to keep reminding myself of that...

Nils is the third novel in the bestselling Breakaway Hockey series.
