High-powered attorney Sinead O'Brien is a workaholic with high stress levels causing lack of sleep and migraines, but she is extremely good at her job. This is why Sinead is selected to represent the Blade's defenseman Adam Perry and his assault charges. Sinead is confident she can help Adam, but she doesn't know one end of a hockey stick from the other and is relying on him to share his knowledge. Unfortunately, getting Adam to talk about his situation is like pulling teeth. Adam Perry was hired as Captain of the Blades hockey team for his leadership and fierceness on the ice. During a game, he does what he does best and knocks an opponent unconscious during a routine body check, then finds himself charged with assault. Adam knows his hit is within the rules, so he is confident the charges won't stick, but dealing with an attorney and the Blade's suits are a necessary evil. What Adam isn't ready for is Sinead O'Brien and the sparks that ignite between them. ICEBREAKER is the 10th book in the Blades series and doesn't disappoint with cameo appearances from your favorite characters and a story that warms your heart. A fabulous read!

SUMMARY

Good thing high-powered attorney Sinead O' Brien has a rule about never dating clients. Because Adam Perry, the newest star of the New York Blades-and her newest client-has her headed for the penalty box. If only she could prove he's just another jock... Adam's been charged with assault after a borderline hit on another star player, but off the ice he's a private, no-nonsense guy who knows the Blades are his last shot at Stanley Cup glory. Assembling her case, Sinead tries not to get distracted by Adam's dazzling good looks or strong work ethic, but she quickly discovers that there's a wounded man under that jersey, and she's starting to fall for him-hard. Now Adam's having trouble focusing on the goal with Sinead in his sights. And Sinead is tempted to break her 'no dating clients' rule. Can they play on their newfound feelings without penalties?
