Dalton 'Cage' Booker is the number one goalie for the San Diego Scorpions. Most people describe him as willful and stubborn-sometimes even difficult to control. More often than not, words fly out of his mouth without the benefit of passing through his brain first. And women love him. Karen LaGrange, little sister of former enforcer for the Scorpions, lives in Canada, where she works with special needs children. After losing her job to redistricting, she makes an extended visit to San Diego, forming a friendship with the errant goalie. Through frequent reminders that they are friends without benefits, Karen struggles to keep their relationship platonic, but the more she shuts him down, the more he wants her. Can Cage convince Karen to slip under the sheets with him, or is he destined to be firmly entrapped in the friend zone?
