Lady Sinners

VEGAS BABY
Lady Sinners Series, #1

As captain of the dance team for the NHL's Las Vegas Sinners, it's Miranda Evans' job to make sure a quality product goes on the ice between periods whether it's choreographed numbers or short scrimmages, but she's not blind. Her squad gets eye rolls and applause in equal measure. The chance to start a community intramural hockey league is her shot at legitimizing the Lady Sinners, but there's a catch. To maximize good press, Miranda has to work with a retired Sinner who's shut himself off from everyone in the organization. He's stubborn, broken, and unwilling to say the least, but in unguarded moments she can see the man underneath, and he might just be worth fighting for.

Ben Collier's NHL career came to a crashing halt a little over a year ago when a monster hit paralyzed him from the waist down. Feeling is coming back at a mind-numbingly slow pace. He's attacking rehab to the point of obsession. All he wants is to be left alone to focus on his three goals: walk, skate, play hockey. He absolutely doesn't need the distraction of the beautiful cheerleader who won't give him a moment's peace, but her optimism rubs off when he's not looking. Despite himself, the glass is starting to look half full for the first time since his injury. And that's terrifying. To love something means to accept the risk of losing it, and he's not sure he can do that again.

READ A LITTLE, BUY THE BOOK

I live in Ohio with my Air Force hubby, and I write hockey romance. I played one season of roller hockey when I was fifteen--it hurt enough that I decided I liked it better as a spectator--and it's been true love ever since! My fictional team is the Las Vegas Sinners, and my real-world team is the Pittsburgh Penguins.

I like strong, capable heroines who bring out the vulnerability in their tough guys.

THE Q&A
ANGI: How often to you get lost in a story?
KATIE:  Every day! Whether it’s a book I’m reading, a book I’m writing, a TV show or a movie, I love getting lost with intriguing characters.

ANGI: Favorite date night…fancy or at home?
KATIE:  Home! Hubby and I are introverts who cherish our little bubble. We’ll order pizza, pick up ice cream, and curl up to watch something funny.

ANGI: Would you put yourself in a Fairy Tale or Action Adventure?
KATIE:  Fairy tale! I’m a hopeful romantic who can’t resist an HEA.

ANGI: What’s your favorite cartoon character?
KATIE:  This is tough because I am SUCH a kid. Any of the 90s Nickelodeon Nick Toons but if I had to pick one, Doug Funnie from Doug. It was refreshing to see an earnest, honest, vulnerable boy in love.

ANGI: Daffy Duck or Donald Duck?
KATIE:  Donald Duck.

ANGI: What’s your favorite thing about your book’s hero?
KATIE:  Normally we see heroines who don’t believe in themselves enough, but it’s switched in Vegas Baby. Ben is very self-conscious, and his esteem has taken a huge hit after a hockey injury paralyzed him below the waist. He’s shut the world out as he’s been rehabbing and slowly regaining feeling, but when he meets my bubbly, sweet heroine Miranda, he finds the courage to open up and let her in—eventually!

ANGI: High Heels or Hiking Boots?
KATIE:  Depends on the occasion! I love to go for nature walks, but I also love dressing up and feeling pretty and sexy in heels.

ANGI: What’s your favorite movie of all time?
KATIE:  I have too many! Home Alone, You’ve Got Mail, Apollo 13, Twister, Father of the Bride, Planes Trains and Automobiles, and Groundhog Day to name a few. I can never pass those up when they’re on TV.
ANGI: Got a favorite song? What makes it special?
KATIE:  Vegas Baby’s official song is “Anthem” by Superchick. It’s a kickass girl power song, and I love it

ANGI: Salad or soup?
KATIE:  Salad

ANGI: Champagne or Soda?
KATIE:  Diet Coke in an IV, please.

ANGI: What’s your perfect day?
KATIE:  Morning picnic on the beach then bouncing between Disney Parks and ending with fireworks.

ANGI: Geek or Jock?
KATIE:  Nerd girl with her nose in a book.

ANGI: Favorite inspiration
KATIE:  In life? Dana Scully from the X-Files. In writing? Rachel Caine J

ANGI: The most daring thing you’ve ever done… Care to share?
KATIE:  I recently leapt into self-publishing. It is a LOT of work, but the ultimate control over my work and the freedom has been so worth it.

ANGI’s GOTTA ASK:  What’s your favorite pair of shoes & why? 
KATIE’S GOTTA ANSWER:  My wedding shoes! They are purple perfection and so, so pretty.

Too Steamy for the Penalty Box ... Period Three

The New Orleans Cajun Rage professional hockey team just won the Cup. No one thought they'd do it: they were a team of shoulda beens, never coulda beens and a star or two. They'd only been in the Crescent City for three years before this year's Cinderella run that had them skating off the ice with the championship. Over the following summer, each player gets to keep the Cup for a day. Nobody knows why, but whoever has the Cup falls in love.

PENALTY BOX BLUES
Robin Kaye
Stryker Gyllenhaal, enforcer on the Ragin' Cajun's, knows that once he hits Boise, his time spent in the penalty box is nothing compared to the payback Karma Kincaid has in store for him. When he finds out she has hired a handler, Trish Reynolds, his old college tutor, he's not sure who the real enforcer is. Karma, because she owns him for an entire week, or Trish, the only woman who knows his secret, and can slam his heart against the boards with a sideways glance. He is so pucked.

BEAR NAKED
Katie Kenyhercz
First Nations defenseman Bear Thompson wants to spend his day with the Cup back home on the reserve, but first he has to convince his childhood sweetheart and current band chief Aria Paul to give him another chance and that letting the media in won't be the end of the world. The last thing Aria wants to do is fall back in love with the man who broke her heart and left her in the dust, but old feelings spark new ones, and when Bear sets his sights on a goal, it's only a matter of time.

The sexiest thing about Bear is his dedication to what matters to him.”


DEEP CHECK
USA Today Bestseller Kimberly Kincaid
Hotshot hockey center Finn Donnelly wants nothing more than to take The Cup to his best friend's grave after the Rage's big win. The problem is, that also means going back to his hometown and seeing January Sinclair, a.k.a., the woman he left behind. Will Finn and January learn to build new trust--or will their ghosts keep them from falling in deep?

"The sexiest thing about my hero is his drive. Finn will do whatever it takes to get what he wants, whether it's the Cup or a shot at proving himself to his heroine, January."



BLOCKED
USA Today Bestseller Heather Long
Archer Durham's career has been defined by his badass attitude both on and off the ice, unfortunately it's biting him in the ass. After one too many unfortunate videos of him turned up on social media, both his fans and the press have turned against him. The win shines spotlight on the whole team and he needs to clean up his act...but what the hell does he know about being a knight in shining armor? 

The sexiest thing about Archer Durham is his loyalty and compassion, two traits he doesn't flaunt but yet drive the choices he makes.
