Excerpt from Crashing the Boards by Jami
Davenport
Party crashing was
an art—if done right.
Isabella Maxwell
should know. She’d been crashing parties for years, at first to get a decent
meal and later—much later—as a part-time profession with her three younger
sisters. She’d never crashed a party she didn’t take from dud to memorable in
minutes.
Tonight she might
have met her match.
She’d done her
research and knew the obstacles and challenges, but nothing prepared her for
the scene awaiting her on the party deck of the Washington Queen, a local tour
boat rented by the Seattle Sockeyes hockey team for an evening dinner cruise
around Elliott Bay.
As security checked
invitations at the door, Izzy snuck past them and peeked in the doorway,
scoping out the scene inside—DJ in the corner, empty dance floor complete with
mirror ball and flashing lights, not a dancer anywhere. Hockey players were
slouched in chairs clumped around tables, reminding her of pimply faced
preteens at a junior high dance. Only these boys weren’t preteens or pimply
faced. They were a formidable wall of broad chests, muscular thighs, and
determined expressions. Each one mirroring the other, but she’d done her
research. There was one man she needed to win over to salvage this party, and
he hadn’t arrived yet.
Her sisters had
already boarded the boat, managing to sneak past security, every one of them
dressed to kill or at least to charm a professional hockey team, Bethany in her
plunging Vera Wang gown and deadly high heels. Emma and Avery, the youngest at
twenty-one and identical twins, looked every bit like giddy hockey groupies
who’d managed to snag an invite to the party. Standing near the buffet table,
they giggled and whispered as they stole glances at the players. Several
players stared right back. Nearby, Bethany engaged the team play-by-play
announcer in conversation, while he stared at her boobs, but men always stared
at Bethany’s boobs.
The stage was set.
Time to get this
party started. The Sockeyes were going to have the time of their lives if she
had to threaten bodily harm with their own hockey sticks.
“Ma’am, I need to
see your invitation.” A security guard with a receding hairline, the waist of
his polyester pants pulled up to his armpits, and a determined set to his
skinny jaw, stepped in front of her before she could enter through the double
doors.
“Oh, that.” Izzy
made a show of digging through her saddlebag of a purse, not exactly in keeping
with her little black sheath, but it served its purpose. “I know it’s in here
somewhere.”
The security guard
wasn’t the least bit impressed. He tapped his toe on the floor and took a ready
stance as if he expected her to run any moment. Just what she needed, a SWAT
team wannabe. She batted her eyes at him and continued to dig in her purse.
“I’m sorry. I know
it’s here somewhere.”
“Ma’am, you’ll need
to leave the boat until you can find it.”
She laughed and
rubbed one perfectly manicured finger across his name tag. “Now, Carl, you just
hold on one teensy bit. We’ll get this straightened out.” Izzy slipped into her
fake Southern drawl; it brought most men to their knees.
Not Carl. In fact,
not one hair quivered on his mustache. “My orders are strict. No one, not even
the governor, gets in without an invite.” He wrapped scrawny fingers around her
arm and pulled her none too gently from the doorway. He might look like a wimp
but the guy was surprisingly strong.
No matter. She’d
switch to Plan B.
“My boyfriend will
be here any moment. He must have the tickets.”
As if on cue, her
target for the night walked up the ramp and onto the boat. Cooper Black. The
captain of the newly christened Seattle Sockeyes, and the most outspoken man on
the team especially when it came to the team’s move and current situation,
which he hated—the very man Izzy needed to tame tonight for this situation to
turn around.
Judging by the
stubborn set of his jaw and those steely blue eyes, this wasn’t going to be
easy.
