Hulking ex-rugby player Spencer Carlisle has crushed on Daffodil McGregor since high school. On the field he knew the moves. Off, he was a clueless clod who never gained an advantage. Rejected and rebuffed, his infatuation finally cooled - like ice. Now, it’s impossible not to feel the chill - since he’s the best man and she’s the maid of honor at their siblings’ wedding.
