Description

Purple wig, red lips, and a flirty smile-those are the only things Austin Blakely remembers when he wakes up tied to his bed... It's Austin's job as the enforcer for the New York Rangers hockey team to strike fear in the hearts of grown men. But if Manhattan's notorious gossip magazine, The Whisperer, catches wind of his dating fail-or worse, took a picture of him in his compromised state-his reputation and career could be ruined. Magnolia Cross is still running from rumors that robbed her of the interview of a lifetime... Intern reporter for the Madison Square Garden news affiliate isn't Magnolia's idea of a dream job. She doesn't even like hockey. But it's experience on-air, and that's what counts. After a prank-gone-wrong leaves her stripped of her Valedictorian title, she loses her initial chance at making it big. But now she's stronger and smarter, and won't let trust issues screw her out of her chance for success-again. One bad interview and two million YouTube hits later, Magnolia is a media sensation-for all the wrong reasons... Stupid Austin Blakely with his cocky smile and hockey lingo gibberish. After he embarrasses her on national television in the name of harmless flirting, Magnolia vows never to interview him again. Except avoiding Austin is easier said than done. It isn't long before Magnolia discovers the real source of Austin's fears. It's all about the seductress in the purple wig-unless it's about the pictures she stole that could change all their lives forever...
