The Body Checker — Cathryn Fox

Jonah
I'm the NHL's toughest enforcer, the Body Checker, and I earned that title the hard way. I'm all about the game, a no attachment, no strings kind of guy, so when a puck bunny shows up at my door, shoves a pink bundle into my hands and drives off into the sunset, it turns my world upside down. I'm not cut out to be a family man. I know nothing about babies and I'm the last guy who should be taking care of one. But I do know someone who is equipped for the job -- Quinn Reed, my best friend's kid sister. Problem is, she kind of…hates me.Quinn
Jonah Long…a father? Move in and help take of his daughter? Crazy as that sounds, I agree to the temporary arrangement, for the child's sake. Problem is, living with the guy I've crushed on since forever, is messing with my body as well as my brain. And now, watching him grow as a man, seeing the bond between father and daughter build, I can't help but want this family for myself. But we're just playing house, and Jonah isn't interested in making this ready-made family the real deal…right?
