Blurb:
Life was so much easier for Margarite Lancourt before she had set
eyes on Petro Shevenko. Her diploma to teach hearing impaired children would be
in her hand within a year. Then she would find the right man, the right
neighborhood, and bear the right children. Her deafness was not going to get in
the way of her aspirations. But were they her dreams or her mother`s?
Now that she has met Petro, the Wildcats sexy new acquisition who
has an unquenchable thirst for the wild side of life, Margarite`s nicely mapped
out life is in chaos. Can she tame this unruly Russian Wildcat? Or will his
family demons drag him, and Margarite, back into the darkness the couple have
struggled to break free from?

Excerpts
PG:
I had to smile when I saw what had lured him from
our bedroom. Breakfast. Of course. Well, at least it hadn’t been booze or some
trashy bimbo. Since I had been here, he had been remarkably well behaved. He
attended AA meetings weekly. He never missed a training session with Clarkie,
Bernie, or Schultz. He ate well, worked hard, stayed sober, and kept his pants
zipped. Aside from last night. Olaf swept us into our chairs, talking as she
served bowl after bowl of her homeland’s delicacy. I thought that athletes who
were training as hard as Petro was were supposed to eat chicken and pasta. Most
of the Wildcats had a strict nutritional, as well as personal, schedule.
Morning skate of twenty to forty minutes to loosen up, light stretch or bike,
home or hotel for the biggest meal that is usually around lunch, then a nap
followed by a return trip to the arena about two hours before game time.
Perhaps because it wasn’t in-season he didn’t feel the need to be so strict.
I poked at the heavy foods laid out before me. Petro
ate his fill and then some. I made a small sandwich out of one slice of dark
rye, or “black bread” as Olaf called it, folded over to hold some scrambled
eggs with a fat slice of ham and butter. I suppose the bread counted as his
carbs, although ham certainly wasn’t as lean as chicken. The coffee was thick,
strong, and invigorating. I stirred some sugar into my coffee as Petro and Olaf
fell into a rather animated conversation. She sat down beside me with a huff. I
peeked at her over my cup of coffee. The hot brew trickled over my tongue.
“So, when wedding?”
Danny Thomas would have been impressed with my
spit-take. Petro shook his head then growled something at his grandmother. She
waved the man off with a strong hand. I grabbed a handful of napkins to dab at
my chin, my dish, and the table.
“Bad news no wedding. Back in Chatsky if couple
found naked gooey together, they make vows. But.” She threw her hand into the
air dramatically. My shirt was wet with spewed coffee but I could not pull my
sight from Olaf. “This is America, land of free and funny TV shows. You two
make me great-grandmother, you get married. End of discussion, “she spat at her
grandson who must have been retaliating verbally.
I was so mortified I couldn’t move. Coffee soaked
through my shirt.
“So,” the rumbling Russian tank said her steely eyes
back to me, “Petro say he makes good with you. I like this match. You make good
player out of him, keep him on narrow path. Walking the line, yes?”
Petro slapped the table. My stunned sight
jack-knifed over to him. He was smiling widely. Olaf grinned at me, shoved a
platter of potato pancakes at me then pinched my hip. I jumped in pain. This
morning was just going so well.
“You need more meat. When I coached women’s team, I
make players get more muscle. You too skinny, thighs too thin. Eat more.”
My mind was completely overwhelmed. Coached women’s
team? What women’s team? My thighs
were fine. Now my ass on the other hand…
The touch of Petro’s warm fingers on my arm startled
me. My head whipped back in his direction. His fingers slid down my arm to my
wrist. Far more gently than one would think, he lifted my hand to his lips then
tasted my palm.

A moment later I stood outside the Wolverines’
locker room, my eyes fastened to the sign barring anyone except authorized
personnel. Placing my purse back on my shoulder, I turned the knob slowly. The
aroma of stinky pads, sweaty skates, soap, unwashed man, and old socks hit my
nose. I hurried to close the locker room door. If Petro were in there, he could
stay in there. Rubbing at my affronted nose, I glanced back the way I came. Something wet hit my arm. I jumped in fright. Spinning around I saw him,
leaning on the doorway of another room minus his skates and jersey. I threw a
glare at the wet washcloth he had chucked at me. Then I grabbed it off the
dirty floor and flung it back at him. It missed by ten feet or more. Petro
laughed then stepped back into the open door behind him. Down the hall I went,
my purse slapping my hip, my hair bouncing, my eyes locked on my goal.
I slammed into the training center. Massage tables,
cold plunge tubs, and whirlpools greeted me, as did the Russian Romeo. Petro
was shucking off his padding. The door drifted shut. He threw his shoulder pads
to the floor. My mouth filled with saliva. I swallowed roughly then stood
there, rooted to the spot, as he worked on divesting himself of every damn bit
of gear he had on. When he got down to his compression shorts, my legs grew a
little rubbery. Down they came, as did his cup. I ogled his ass. He gave me a
sly look over his shoulder before he walked toward a whirlpool. He took just a
moment to turn the jets on then he stepped down into the frothy water. His cock
hung down the inside of his thigh, growing fatter and longer as I looked at it.
“Come,” he called over the rumble of the whirlpool.
I chewed my lip with indecision. Dare I?
Dark eyes smoldering, prick now rising to the task,
he called to me yet again. I ran back to lock the training room door, and then
scurried past the six massage tables. This rink was bare compared to the new
training facility at the Houseman, but that whirlpool seemed to be in fine
shape, as was the nude man waiting for me with foam and hot water swirling
around his knees. I couldn't undress quickly enough. My eyes roamed over him as
I shimmied out of my panties. His hand took mine. Petro pulled me against him
as soon as my feet were on the bottom of the whirlpool. My fingers took hold of
his sweat-soaked hair. Down I pulled his mouth. His lips roamed over mine. His
cock was pinned between us, hard yet soft. The taste of him was divine,
sinspirational even. The smell of him? Gross. I broke the kiss then tried to
wiggle free. He cocked an eyebrow as if to ask what was wrong. I pinched my
nose shut. The man lifted up one arm to smell his pit. Oh God. Even he made a face. I was then yanked
downward into the hot, bubbling water, his arm never moving from around my
waist.
I slithered free once our skin was wet. He leaned back,
arms on the side of the tub. His head dropped back as his eyes drifted closed.
My legs were resting over his. I decided to do as he had done. My head rolled
back as well. My lashes fluttered closed. There we sat, letting the hot jets
work their magic. I cracked one eye open when Petro slid out of the whirlpool.
His ass and legs were simply amazing. Muscles flexed and rolled with each step.
Water ran between his tight buttocks. My mind filled with wicked thoughts of
nipping that ass repeatedly. He unlocked the door then left. I sat up stiff as
Nana’s back, my hands over my wet breasts. What kind of game was he playing?
Enough time had passed that I was seriously contemplating getting out when his
naked form filled the doorway. He had a bar of white soap in his hand and that
erection that made my mouth water. He stopped only long enough to shut and lock
the door. I was all over his fine ass when he lowered himself back into the
whirlpool.
