About this ebook

Meet Royce: a brand new contemporary sports romance standalone in the Sidewinders series from USA Today Bestselling Author Kat Mizera
Love gets messy when Royce finally meets his match...

Professional hockey player Royce Lenahan grew up surrounded by chaos, so as an adult he likes things nice and orderly: His apartment, his hockey schedule, even his dates. When his best friend and teammate asks him to take his visiting sister to a rock concert, he isn’t expecting the sultry, leather-clad vixen who has his jaw dropping.

Force of nature Kristina Papadakis feels like two separate people sometimes: The demure, proper Greek girl she was raised to be, and the badass rock musician she could be. She’s never had a problem keeping her worlds apart until her brother’s straight-laced but oh-so-hot teammate stumbles into both of them, creating a collision she wasn’t expecting.

As Royce and Tina explore an unexpected but undeniable passion, they soon discover that love isn’t always enough. Opposites might attract, but they’ll have to learn to compromise if they want to last.

This is book #10, in the Las Vegas Sidewinders series. This book can be read as a standalone novel. To avoid spoilers, and to enjoy and understand the series, I recommend reading this series in order. Royce is a professional hockey player who likes things to be just so. What he never sees coming is the little sister of his best friend. She is all woman and he has no problem taking notice. Kristina is a proper Greek girl, at least some of the time. Other times, she is a real rock guru and future star. She notices Royce after an incident that they both barely make it through. She also notes how much more of a gentleman, and what a caring individual he can be. This was such an amazing book. I loved getting to know these characters. No one expects either of them to come out of their comfort zones - so it was awesome to read about! There are some familiar characters you will see in this story as well. Never disappointed with this great series. ***This early copy was given in exchange for an honest review.

This is another great book in the Las Vegas Sidewinders series. Royce and Tina are complete opposites. Royce loves everything organized and complete control of his life. Tina has an artistic heart and loves to let go and enjoy life. You would've think these two would work, but they do. I fell in love with these two instantly. They helped balanced each other out. I did feel for both of them. Royce had a hard time letting go though he really needed to (I loved the conversation his dad had with him) and Tina had a hard time always sticking to Royce's orderly needs. It broke my heart when they couldn't keep their relationship going, though I think the time helped. As usual the secondary characters were wonderful and really added dimension to the story. I love that this team tries to help each other out when they can. I loved meeting Casey. She was a great friend and so down to earth. Great story! Looking forward to more (especially Zaan's story cause he sounds interesting).

Royce likes things just so and on time and likes being completely in control of things. Tina is a free spirit who on the surface seems to be a bit chaotic. When Royce's best friend asks home to take his sister Tina to a concert in Vegas the 2 strike up an unlikely friendship seeing things in each other that others have missed. Tina isn't jumping from job to job as her brother thinks but saving to open her own travel agency. Royce's OCD becomes more apparent and could ruin everything unless he admits that it is an issue. An unlikely pairing that could be amazing or a total disaster. Loved this story as it shows that things aren't always as they seem

About the author

 USA Today Bestselling and award-winning author Kat Mizera is a South Florida native. Born in Miami Beach with a healthy dose of wanderlust, she's called Los Angeles, Long Island, upstate New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Atlanta home. She's never been able to pick which locale is her favorite, but if pressed, she'd probably choose the west coast.


A typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max), Kat can usually be found scrapbooking or indulging in her second love (after writing) - traveling. Greece is one of her favorite places in the world. She loves that Athens is a big city with a small-town feel. The food, beaches and culture keep her going back as often as possible. 

Kat's been a working freelance writer for nearly 30 years. She sold her first article--a review of a rock concert--for $10 in 1985. Since then she's been an entertainment journalist, waitress, bartender, legal assistant, food critic, magazine editor, substitute teacher, and sports writer. She also spent some time working at A & M Records in Los Angeles.

As you can guess from her Las Vegas Sidewinders series, Kat loves hockey and occasionally writes articles about her favorite team, the Florida Panthers. The rest of the time, she writes novels: sexy, romantic fiction that she hopes makes you as happy as it makes her. There's something enticing about hockey players and romance...
