Melting The Ice (A Play-By-Play Novel #7) By: Jaci Burton

      Everything's coming together for budding fashion designed Carolina Preston. Only months away from having her own line, she could use some publicity. That's when her brother suggests his best friend as a model - hockey player Drew Hogan. 

      Carolina and Drew already have a history - a hot one, back in college. Unforgettable for Carolina, but for Drew, just another slap shot. This time, though, it's different. His perfect body would be for professional use only. This time, she could use him.

      Drew is all for it. He's looking forward to the exposure. Plus, it would give him a chance to prove to Carolina that he's changed. If only he could thaw her emotions, convince her to let down her guard and let him in just one more time. 

      I mentioned before that I wasn't planning on reading the Play-By-Play series in its entirety. But I thought I would at least be reading the books I wanted to read in this series in order, that obviously didn't happen as I only realized after the fact that I read book 8 before book 7. Either way it worked out as there wasn't much cross between the two books. And I did end up liking this story enough to read once but not enough to want to read more than once.
