Meet Royce: a brand new contemporary sports romance standalone in the Sidewinders series from USA Today Bestselling Author Kat Mizera

Love gets messy when Royce finally meets his match...

Professional hockey player Royce Lenahan grew up surrounded by chaos, so as an adult he likes things nice and orderly: His apartment, his hockey schedule, even his dates. When his best friend and teammate asks him to take his visiting sister to a rock concert, he isn't expecting the sultry, leather-clad vixen who has his jaw dropping.

Force of nature Kristina Papadakis feels like two separate people sometimes: The demure, proper Greek girl she was raised to be, and the badass rock musician she could be. She's never had a problem keeping her worlds apart until her brother's straight-laced but oh-so-hot teammate stumbles into both of them, creating a collision she wasn't expecting.

As Royce and Tina explore an unexpected but undeniable passion, they soon discover that love isn't always enough. Opposites might attract, but they'll have to learn to compromise if they want to last.
