Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I need to get my head in the game... Shane I'm a goaltender in a slump but, when I meet a redhead who raises more than my blood pressure, it's game on. One steamy night with Bliss and I'm winning games again. Our affair is on fire and and so is my game. But we both know it can't last. I want to move up to the NHL, and Bliss has her roots planted in a small town. Not let my heart call the shots... Bliss I'm not looking for a relationship, especially not with an intense, driven athlete who's chasing his dreams. My ex's need for control nearly made me his emotional slave. I'm never going to give another man that kind of hold over me again. But a one-night stand with a hot hockey player who won't be around forever? Absolutely. But Shane's off-beat humor and killer smile might be more than I can withstand. And when Shane gets the call he’s been waiting for his whole life, I realize I've been fooling myself about giving him up. And Shane isn't giving up without a fight. This is a first-person retelling of THE BRICK WALL.

Download or read book The Joe written by Detroit Free Press and published by Triumph Books. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In December 1979, a Detroit tradition began when the Red Wings took the ice for the first time at their new riverfront home, Joe Louis Arena. Named after former heavyweight champion boxer Joe Louis, the stadium that became affectionately known as "The Joe" saw the renaissance of the Red Wings franchise, including four Stanley Cup championship seasons and a 25-year run of advancing to the playoffs. The Joe: Memories from the Heart of Hockeytown takes a look back at the storied history of Joe Louis Arena in this, its final year. The arena has witnessed many stories, recounted with admiration in The Joe. Red Wings greats from Gordie Howe to Steve Yzerman to Nicklas Lidstrom skated on The Joe's storied ice, and time-honored rivalries, such as those between the Red Wings and Colorado Avalanche, were played out in dramatic fashion. The stadium has spawned such personalities as Al the Zamboni driver, who twirls octopuses overhead, the Knitting Lady, the Guy in the Orange Hat, and Mo Cheese. The Joe also hosted a number of unforgettable non-hockey events, from Ronald Reagan's nomination at the 1980 Republican convention, to the start of Prince's Purple Rain tour in 1984, to N.W.A.'s controversial concert in 1989, to Bob Seger joining Kid Rock on stage during Super Bowl week in 2006. The Joe offers a comprehensive tribute in words and pictures to hockey's last old-time arena. Learn about the history of the Red Wings and The Joe and the unforgettable games played there, as well as a number of key events in Detroit's history. For anyone who has cheered on the Red Wings over the past three-plus decades, this book is not to be missed.
