New York Times bestselling author of the Briar U series Elle Kennedy’s first hockey romance, Body Check, is now released in an expanded version, with both new and enhanced scenes by the author! More story, more hockey—and more heat!
After a childhood spent being dragged around the country by her hockey coach father, Hayden Houston intends to take some time to figure out her future. Whether that future will include her currently off-again boyfriend remains to be seen. What it certainly won’t include is the for-one-night-only guy she just met at a bar.
It seems hockey star Brody Croft did not get the memo about being temporary. Big, bold and driven, he’s dedicated in everything he does. Up till now, that’s been his team—the one owned by Hayden’s dad. But his night with Hayden has sparked something he didn’t expect. The two of them are good together. Really good. There’s a connection he’s never experienced before, one he knows they’d be wrong to ignore. Even with a game-fixing scandal testing both their loyalties—to teammates, to friends…to family.
Part of Hayden wants to turn tail and run. A complicated relationship with a bad boy hockey player is exactly what she never wanted. But when it comes to Brody, Hayden is realizing that people can be so much more than what they seem.

My Review: 4/5 Stars
When Hayden comes to Chicago to support her dad, she never expects that she’ll let her friend convince her a one night stand is a good idea… and realize a few days later that the man she took home is a hockey player on the team her dad owns. Things just got complicated. Hayden just wanted one night, no stings, but Brody is making that very hard with how nice, how hot, and just a pretty great guy he is. But she can resist…right? Brody has never felt this way about someone before. But the moment he meets Hayden, he knows she is different. But can he convince her to give them a real chance? It will take everything he is to prove to her that he wants more from her. But there is a lot going on around them. Hayden’s dad is going through a divorce and there is a scandal brewing that he was bribing players on the hockey team to throw games. What is true and what is false? And it is only a matter of time until Hayden and Brody are thrown in the crossfire. Though this probably isn’t my favorite Elle Kennedy story, I did still enjoy it! Plenty of hockey and romance and swoon worthy hockey players, it’s definitely worth checking out at the very least!
