Anton

Hockey Romance with Heart and Steam When Jillian, a thrifty grad student with dreams of event planning, tumbles headfirst at the feet of Anton—a smoldering Russian hockey goalie for the Colorado Crush—she's unprepared for the sparks that ignite. Anton's chiseled jaw, once-broken nose, and cascade of curly blonde hair scream rugged charm, but it's his cool-headed Zen and sharp business mind that make hearts race. A star on the ice, he's destined to trade his skates for a corner office in his family's mining empire, living a life of designer suits, glitzy galas, and high-society expectations. Jillian, content in her vintage thrift-store finds and fueled by coffee, thrives in the background, pouring lattes while chasing her degree. Their worlds collide in a flirty, laugh-out-loud meet-cute, but falling for Anton means stepping into his dazzling, upscale life—and facing his intimidatingly posh parents and a stunning woman who's not ready to let him go. Can Jillian, fiercely independent and leary of a man's devotion, embrace the heat of Anton's world? And can Anton, blindsided by love, prove he's more than his polished exterior? Anton, the fourth standalone in the Colorado Crush hockey series, is a steamy, opposites-attract romance packed with witty banter, electric chemistry, and a happily-ever-after that only a sexy Russian goalie can deliver. No cheating, just passion and a love story that scores big.
