Red Rocket: A Hockey Love Story
About this ebook
They call me The Mad Russian for a reason.
—Viktor Demoskev, VEGAS CRUSH
My reputation as an Enforcer was earned one game at a time. Fighting on the ice for my team is something I take very seriously because I came to the USA to play hockey, not be a celebrity.
Unfortunately, this logic has my public image taking a beating—not that I care very much how others think of me.
Except for her.
Scarlett.
A woman as gorgeous, and fiery, and sexy, as that long red hair of hers. Which would look even more stunning spread out on my sheets with my hands tangled in it all night long w̶h̶i̶l̶e̶ ̶n̶a̶k̶e̶d̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶c̶o̶u̶r̶s̶e̶.
It is unfortunate that she also works for the team. In Public Relations...
So yeah, the no-fraternization policy is an issue, but hardly my main concern. The biggest hurdle is Scarlett thinking I am part of a gambling ring for the Russian Mafia.
Crazy, right?
I can deal with setting her straight about her ridiculous suspicions, but cracking through that hard shell she has built around her broken heart? This is my real challenge.
But oh how I love a good fight.
Winning is everything to me.
Especially when the prize is the Las Vegas beauty I named the Red Rocket...
**RED ROCKET can be read as a complete standalone sports romance. Each book in the Vegas Crush series is about a different couple.

About the author
Raine Miller is a New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal bestselling author since 2012.
Before that, she spent two decades teaching kiddos to read–something she’s most proud of. These days, writing steamy romance stories pretty much fills up the hours. . . for which she keeps pinching herself to make sure she’s not dreaming.

She has a handsome husband, two amazing sons, and two very bouncy Italian greyhounds to keep her busy the rest of the time. Her boys know she writes romance books but gratefully have zero interest in reading even a single one. Thank God!
When she’s not writing she’s likely deep into a hockey game cheering on her beloved Vegas Golden Knights and dreaming up a new book. The greyhounds are likely to be in her lap while she writes the books or watches hockey—both dogs at the same time.
She loves to hear from readers and chat about the characters she’s created.
You can connect with Raine on Facebook in her group, Raine Miller Romance Readers. Stop by any time. “My readers are the heart and soul of what keeps me writing the words.”

Brit DeMille is the alter ego of NYT Bestselling author, Raine Miller, having an absolute blast writing books quite different from what she writes as Raine.
Stories about sexy billionaires [millionaires make the cut too] who fall in instalove with young women who may or may not be virgins, and then go on to make adorable babies together are her favorite themes. In addition to the billionaires, hot hockey players are at the top of her list of favorite heroes, along with royals and ex-military bodyguards.
Most important when she writes a story is a happily ever after. But during the actual writing of the story, the most important thing is a cup of hot tea with a splash of milk (and don’t forget the stash of cherry Jolly Ranchers).
A dog or two will likely be in between her and the chair at any given moment, which is very handy because they are the ones who approve everything she writes.
