Baltimore Banners defenseman Randy Michaels has a reputation for hard-hitting, on and off the ice. But he's getting older, and his agent has warned that there are younger, less-expensive players who are eager to take his place on the team. Can his hare-brained idea of becoming a "respectable businessman" turn his reputation around, or has Randy's reputation really cost him the chance of having his contract renewed? Alyssa Harris has one goal in mind: make the restaurant she's opened with her three friends a success. It's not going to be easy, not when the restaurant is a themed sports bar geared towards women. It's going to be even more difficult because their sole investor is Randy Michaels, her friend's drool-worthy brother who has his own ideas about what makes an interesting menu. Will the mismatched pair be able to find a compromise as things heat up, both on and off the ice? Or will their differences result in a penalty that cost both of them the game?… (meer)

NHL defenseman Randy Michaels needs to revamp his reputation to prolong his career. He invests in a restaurant and becomes interested in the chef, Alyssa Harris.

Lisa B. Kamps’ Body Check is an entertaining and enjoyable read.

I liked Alyssa. Some of her food creations sounded delicious, making my mouth water. I liked that she was open to trying Randy’s suggestions even though he does not have a culinary background. I also found her first hockey game experience amusing; not to mention, Randy’s “hockey lessons” after the game.

I enjoyed Randy’s character. He grew a lot throughout the story. I was not, however, a fan of Randy’s agent.

The plot was well-written and believable. The characters have their difficulties. I thought it was interesting that the restaurant’s business plan did not quite end up as the women envisioned. I appreciated the epilogue; it was a fun conclusion.
