Blurb:
Silver Delgado has gained control of The Dartmouth Cobras—and lost control of her life.

Hockey might be the family business, but it’s never interested Silver. Until her father’s health decline thrusts responsibility for the team he owns straight into her hands. Now she has to find a way to get the team more fans, and establish herself as the new owner. Which means standing up to Dean Richter, the general manager and the advisor her father has forced on her. The fact that their ‘business relationship’ started with her over his lap at his BDSM club shouldn’t be too much of a problem. Their hot one night stand meant nothing! But how can she earn his respect when he sees her as submissive? Can they separate work and the lifestyle she’s curious to explore?

Balancing her new life away from Hollywood, living among people who see her as the selfish Delgado princess, has her feeling lost and alone until Landon Bower, the Cobras new Goalie slips into her life and becomes her best—and only—friend. The time they spend together makes everything else bearable, but before long his eyes meet hers with more than friendship, reflecting what she feels. Which could ruin everything.

Two Dominant men who see past her pretty mask and the shallow image she portrayed to the flashing cameras. A gentle attack from both sides that she can’t hope to block unless she learns how to play.

But she’s getting the hang of the game.

Review by Penelope:
In this the second of the ‘Dartmouth Cobra’ series I started reading it knowing that Silver Delgado, the absentee stand-offish sister of Oriana Delgado, would be getting her story.  To say that I wanted to see Silver fall on her face in humiliation and shame would be an understatement.  It would take a VERY convincing story line for me to become a Silver Delagdo fan.  She had too many strikes against her to think I would forgive or forget her actions in the previous book.

WOW!  The author did it.  The many issues that were problematic for me were explained in such a way that I quickly forgot my resentment issues and started to read and appreciate this story as written.  The dynamics and dialogue between the characters had me believing these were real people, rather than fictional characters, working to build a relationship that could endure. The flaws, poor judgement, and problems each character had were not only endearing but showed that people are never perfect and mistakes are made. But with commitment, communication, and give-and-take relationships can grow and thrive for the long haul.

While I loved the story line, I was amazed at the hockey and BDSM elements. The hockey was rough and intense, with players fighting and getting injured on the ice, but still having that euphoric feel that scoring and winning make it all worth while. The BDSM scenes stayed true to core principles with a darker intensity and erotic feel that won’t disappoint. But be warned, reading these scenes are not for the faint of heart. Silver and her men have scenes that were not only HAWT, but satisfyingly orgasmic, and include the use of caning, wands, and breath play.

Yes, I recommend this book. It’s a contemporary BDSM menage read with a hockey theme. There are so many story line twists and turns that will challenge you to predict what direction the story is going in until the very end which ends with a cliffhanger that sets the stage for the next book in the series.
