Home Ice Catherine Gayle

Publisher Marketing: There's only one person Portland Storm head coach Mattias Bergstrom allows to see his soft side: his sister, who was born with Down syndrome. She lives in Sweden, so he doesn't worry he'll accidentally reveal anything other than the hard-assed defenseman-turned-coach his players know. At least not until his sister's doppelganger leaps for one of his young D-men before the team's charity skills competition and melts Mattias's frozen heart. Paige Calhoun has her hands full with four exceedingly boy-crazy, hockey-loving daughters-three teens and a pre-teen with Down syndrome. Everyday life is a challenge. Taking all four girls to the StormSkillz event with no assistance? The magnitude of her task was daunting enough before her youngest spotted the hockey player of her dreams and barreled through the crowd to claim him. The team's sexy-as-sin coach intervenes, and Paige feels just as boy crazy as her daughters. Charmed by the youngest, he decides to give the girls a weekend they'll never forget. It never crossed his mind that, in doing so, he might end up giving himself an unexpected happy ever after with Paige. When it comes to hockey, Mattias has a Home Ice advantage. But when it comes to life? He likes the look of Paige's arena. Contributor Bio:  Gayle, Catherine Catherine Gayle is a bestselling author of Regency-set historical romance.
