Calling the Shots
Alerding, Kathy
Senior trainer for the Omaha Hawks hockey team, Elaine D'Arte was accustomed to dealing with macho males. Until Roland Pantier, "The Panther," skated into her life and broke all the rules. At thirty-eight, the Edmonton Oilers star was nearing the end of his career -- on loan to the Hawks as talent scout and player coach. But he was clearly determined to score with her! Furious at her own burning response, Elaine tried to ice the relationship. But Roland melted her resistance, sweeping her into his arms for a secret affair. How long could love last when she needed to be cherished for a lifetime and he wanted to be free?
