"An angsty, sensual tale complete with fast-paced drama both on and off the ice. Sports romance fans who like things on the soapy side will be thrilled." --Publishers Weekly

A novelist with a rebellious streak and a bad habit of turning men into material. A hockey player with a dark past . . . and a shot at stardom that he just might blow.

A summer vacation that heats up with a forbidden attraction strong enough to burn their neighboring Hamptons houses to the ground.

Summer has begun on the East End of Long Island and bestselling author Jessica Riley finds herself unable to deliver on her highly anticipated second book. Her children are demanding. Her husband is preoccupied. With a deadline looming, she fakes a mental breakdown to get away . . . only to find that the house next door is filled with rowdy hockey players.

One of those players is Carter Hughes, a soon-to-be rookie on the New York Rangers, and in Carter and his friends, Jessica discovers a treasure trove of material for her next book. But she quickly finds herself in over her head, as her connection with Carter spirals out of control and his behavior becomes more erratic. Meanwhile, as Carter mixes with the power scene in the Hamptons, one false move could turn what was supposed to be a summer of training and good times into a game he can't afford to play.

Sexy and addictive, Summer Skate is the sun on your skin in a string bikini. It's the sound of skates cutting across the ice of a hockey rink, chasing victory. It's the thrill of finding out: How bad do you want it?
