Sure Shot is LIVE!
A brand new stand-alone novel in the USA Today bestselling Brooklyn Bruisers series.
On the eve of her thirtieth birthday, successful sports agent Bess
Beringer is ready to make some changes. Armed with a five-year
plan—indexed and color coded—she’ll tackle a few goals in her personal
life.
A big, tall, ripped hunk of hockey player who’s just been traded to
the Brooklyn Bruisers is not a part of that five year plan. Mark “Tank”
Tankiewicz has a lot of baggage. He’s a ride-or-die loner. He’s on the
rebound. He’s also the sexiest thing on two
legs, and for some crazy reason it’s Bess that he wants.
She knows better. But then she falls stupid in love with him anyway. And for a while it seems like maybe he’ll do the same.
Until she asks him for the one thing he can never give her…

Tank: Did you SEE that beautiful goal???
Bess: Yes baby. That’s why I sent you a text last night that said NICE GOAL BABY in shouty caps. Didn’t it come through?
Tank: It
came through. But I just wanted to talk about it some more. Because did
you SEE that beautiful goal? When Castro accidentally passed to nowhere
but I got my stick on it anyway? And before
you could say TANK IS A STUD, I put it in?
Bess: Gorgeous goal, hot stuff! I may have spilled my beer I was so excited.
Tank: Where did you spill it?
Bess: All over my naked breasts.
Tank: Really?
Bess: No. But the purpose of this conversation is stroking your ego, right? So I thought I’d just roll with it.
Tank: LOL! I’ll take it.
Bess: :)
Tank: You were right, by the way. After the game, Castro told me I had to get the Brooklyn Bridge tattooed across my ass.
Bess: Well that’s a good sign. If they’re pranking you it means they like you now.
Tank: I got a goal. They like that at least.
Bess: What did you tell Castro about the tattoo?
Tank: I said, sure, buddy!
Tank:
And, get this, I told him that if we connect on ten goals this season—in
either direction—not only will I put the bridge on one ass cheek, I’ll
put his face on the other.
Bess: OMG. What did he say to that?
Tank:
“Let’s not get carried away.” Honestly he looked terrified, which was
the point. I told him I was just crazy enough to do it. And then I
wondered aloud what the blogs would write about that.
Bess: You are an evil man.
Tank:
Never bullshit a bullshitter. But enough about me. Let’s talk about you.
Specifically, I need to know if you’re naked right now. Please say yes.
Bess: I’m sitting in my office waiting for a conference call. So that would be no.
Tank: Lie to me, baby! I miss you.
Bess: There’s no need to lie. The next time we’re in the same zip code again, you can make your dreams come true.
Tank: Now there’s a plan I can get behind. Literally.
Bess: Indeed. Got to go now! Call starts in two minutes.
Tank:
One more thing, hot stuff. Have you seen Henry again? I keep leaving
voicemails, asking when I can visit. He texts me back, but I can’t get a
phone call. I just want to talk to the old codger.
Bess: Same. I sent him a present but when I asked to visit he shot me down. Now go beat Florida.
Tank: Maybe you should send me a few motivational photographs to improve my game.
Bess: A good workout followed by a protein drink and then a nap would improve it more.
Tank: Says you.
Bess: I am a professional. I know things. Get some rest! I’ll be watching tonight.
