Max Kingston is the oldest of the 9 Kingston siblings. He took over control of the NFL Philadelphia Kings and Kings Corp when his father died suddenly. He is the soul of the family.
Tired of living in his father's shadow, he grabs the opportunity to purchase the Philadelphia NHL team to mold it into a winning franchise, making the Kingston name even more powerful.
Daphne Brenner is the 21 year old daughter of the man who sold the jockey team to the Kingstons. She was blindsided about the sale of the team that was owned and cherished by her grandfather and her mother before she died.
Daphne is Max's assistant, and there is an immediate attraction. They work together to change the culture of the team while falling in love.
This is one of the better books of the several published series about these interconnected families. I recommend it.

About the author
Fall in love with the Kingstons all over again
RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ STEAM: 🔥🔥🔥.5 Max Kingston has taken over the Revolution hockey team. Handing over the Kings football team to be run by his sister Scarlet made more sense, so it looks like he has a fledgling hockey team to turn into NHL champions. Too bad not everyone is on the same page, including the former owner's daughter Daphne Brenner. But Max can't shake her off easily, especially since she is on contract to remain as his assistant for twelve months. But that's the least of his worries because he cannot seem to shake off his attraction to his new and sassy assistant. I thought Cade and Scarlet's story was going to be so hard to surpass, but Bella Matthew keeps raising the bar, especially with Max and Daphne's story. Max has always intrigued me since I started reading about the Kingstons. The patriarch who had to claim the head of the family too early, he has always had to live in his father's shadow and raise his brothers and sisters. He did so with little complaint and handled the organized chaos that is his extended family with strength and grace. I love that Daphne throws him off his guard. The normally stoic Max is shaken by this sassy, fearless, and kind woman who is years his junior. She is not what he expects, and he finds himself liking it a lot. I also love that she stands her ground not just with him but also with other men around her. They respect her as they should because she is smart, hard-working, and witty. Their chemistry is just off the charts. Even their adversarial start set fire to my Kindle. The tension is absolutely sizzling. The Kingston family could find 50 more siblings, and I would read them all. Each one brings a certain charm, and I love their interactions. They keep each other in check, they support each other unconditionally, and it is abundantly clear that they love each other very much. Even their significant others and children integrate well into the family and have their siblings' backs.
