My name is Dax Monahan and hockey is my passion. And if you want to succeed in this sport you have to bust your ass 24/7. I’ve never had a hard time focusing on my career, but when my past comes knocking, no amount of training can prepare me for what lies on the other side of the door.
Regan Miles was always like a sister to me. When a shared tragedy brings us face to face after several years, I’m shocked to see just how much she’s changed. Gone is the shy, awkward little girl that always used to chase me and her brother around. Instead, I’m faced with a gorgeous woman who makes it damn hard to concentrate on anything but her.
Turns out, she’s in trouble, and the only way out is to get married.
I surprise myself when I tell her to marry me. Order her, actually. And most shocking of all, she doesn’t even hesitate before saying yes.
So it’s settled. We’re getting hitched and she’s moving to Arizona with me. All platonic, of course.
The catch? I never knew I’d fall so hard for my best friend’s little sister.

From the moment I finished Legend I was dying for Dax and man this one did not disappoint

Yes, the marriage of convenience trope is a common…. No, this book is not common; Yes it WORKED big time!

Vengeance Player, Dax Monahan meets his match in Regan Miles; the sister of Dax’s deceased best friend.

Regan is so much more than Dax remembers from their time growing up together. I adored how it was very clear from the moment they meet again that Dax felt something he has never felt for before. For me that is so key to getting the reader to believe a “confirmed” bachelor has found his forever happy!

Regan’s backstory which I will not share as it unfolds beautiful to the reader had me rooting for her to grab a hold of what was in front of her… Dax and his love!

The book will pull the reader further into the Vengeance world as Tacker Hall continues to spiral and Dominik Carlson the Team Owner well… I won’t give anything way but yes you will want his happy too!

Dax’s sister Willow was such a great character and the use of the whole Monahan family made this book so much richer.

Dax and Regan’s happy is one built from loss and shared grieve and from friendship and some very well written chemistry. Ms Bennett makes it clear these two are perfect for each other!

Ms Bennett I need more in the series fast….in need of a happy for Tacker and then to witness Dominik chase what he wants  ♥️

ps yes I really need Tacker… NOW …lol 🏒
