Raw and Real Love
Jack Hannen is the face of the NHL. On the surface, he's a ridiculously handsome playboy who just so happens to be a single father to two adorable little girls. But deep down, Jack is a man consumed with remorse, who has been treading water for years. Unable to get past his wife's death, Jack has closed off his heart to love. When Jack meets Caroline, there's instant chemistry, and he finds himself wanting things he doesn't think he deserves. Caroline is sweet, nurturing, and loved by everyone. She adores Jack's two little girls and is the perfect ballet instructor for the spirited preschoolers who don't have a mommy. Caroline would be lying to the world if she said she wasn't attracted to Jack Hannen. But she isn't interested in dating a professional athlete and especially not one with Jack's reputation. She's been burned before and doesn't want the heartache associated with a player, both on and off the ice. One night, when Jack and Caroline end up at a nightclub together, things get carried away, resulting in one very hot night that leaves Jack wanting more. But in order to move forward with Caroline, Jack must face his inner demons and learn to open his heart to the possibility of love. Raw and Real Love is a sexy story about forgiveness, self-acceptance, and realizing that it's never too late to find happiness.
