They call me The Mad Russian for a reason.—Viktor Demoskev, VEGAS CRUSH My reputation as an Enforcer was earned one game at a time. Fighting on the ice for my team is something I take very seriously because I came to the USA to play hockey, not be a celebrity.Unfortunately, this logic has my public image taking a beating—not that I care very much how others think of me.Except for her.Scarlett.A … beating—not that I care very much how others think of me.
Except for her.
Scarlett.
A woman as gorgeous, and fiery, and sexy, as that long red hair of hers. Which would look even more stunning spread out on my sheets with my hands tangled in it all night long while naked of course.
It is unfortunate that she also works for the team. In Public Relations… So yeah, the no-fraternization policy is an issue, but hardly my main concern. The biggest hurdle is Scarlett thinking I am part of a gambling ring for the Russian Mafia.
Crazy, right?
I can deal with setting her straight about her ridiculous suspicions, but cracking through that hard shell she has built around her broken heart? This is my real challenge.
But oh how I love a good fight. Winning is everything to me.
Especially when the prize is the Las Vegas beauty I named the Red Rocket…

You can read this as a stand alone! You do see characters from the previous books.
Scarlett seemed to know what she wanted in life, she could hold her own when it came to certain things. Viktor is her weakness!
Viktor is a character tell you what. He has no filter really and he will tell you what’s on his mind. Oh and his dirty mouth!
Scarlett and Viktor have great banter, even when Viktor doesn’t understand American slang. It was funny to read. I could hear the Russian accent as Viktor spoke, the sarcasm when Scarlett would explain certain things. Not only did they have great banter, their chemistry was off the hook.
The story line was great, have some tissues ready because I did get a little teary eyed.
I can’t wait for the next book!
Where was hockey romance before authors like Raine Miller and her Vegas Crush series? Red Rocket is the 3rd stand-alone book in the series, and I just adored Scarlett and Viktor’s story.
Viktor is an intimidating and at times, stand-offish hero, but his lack of experience with flirting with women and the words that get lost in translation with him, I found to be completely endearing! He quickly became a favorite of mine and was oh so sexy!
I wanted Scarlett to be loved by the right man after the sad ending with her ex, Stephen. She deserved an HEA, and boy did the Mad Russian love her right!
Raine Miller is such an easy author to recommend because she always writes captivating storylines and endearing characters. Red Rocket was no exception and I swear if it’s ever made into an audiobook, I will be listening to the sexy Russian accent over and over again!
One-click Scarlett and Viktor’s story, as well as the other books in the series (Crushed, Sin Shot) NOW!
This is the first book I’ve read in the series and I can’t wait to go back and read the others from the series.
A combination of hockey and a steamy romance is right up my alley! I loved Viktor and Scarlett. They seemed like total opposites but the two of them together were combustible!
Scarlett is skeptical of starting anything with Viktor. Sure she’s had a crush on the strapping Russian but with her past, she’s a little leary with getting involved with any man, much less a hockey player for the Vegas team she works for. She finally finds a place that feels like she belongs and with the company’s no-fraternization rules, she’s trying to stay away from the sexy Russian.
Viktor can’t stop watching the fiery redhead who works for the team. There is just something about the woman that he can’t shake. But he’s about to leave for Russia for the summer league and he has a general rule to stay away from women. But after a weeklong party where the two of them are attending. Like I said these two are smoking hot together and Scarlett starts to let her guard down and tries to just be in the moment.
I love Viktor. Even though on the outside he seems to be all tough. He was a big softy inside when it came to Scarlett.
I really loved the story and how these two eventually come together. It was a fun, easy read that was full of really sexy, steamy moments.

Hockey hotties & a Russian with a dirty mouth! RED ROCKET is a sexy new sports romance and the latest standalone in the Vegas Crush series from Raine Miller. Available now in Kindle Unlimited!
I absolutely loved Red Rocket, and devoured it in one sitting! This super steamy love story had me hooked from the start. Scarlett’s and Victor’s chemistry is off the charts, but her past, and the Crush’s no fraternization policy, make her a bit wary of the Mad Russian. Viktor may be the Mad Russian on the ice, but he is a sweet guy out of the rink, and is looking for more than a puck bunny to settle down with. Their story takes us from Vegas, to Tahoe, to Russia, with a perfect HEA. It was great to catch up with the other 2 couples from the series, and to get to see what the players do in the off season. Britt has “crushed” it with the 3rd book in the Vegas Crush series. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series, Puck Money. I recieved an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Viktor is the enforcer of the Vegas Crush, he is big, surly and Russian. Scarlet is one of the PR girls of the team and she has intense chemistry with the big Russian. However the team rule is you can’t fraternize with each other or can you? It is an entertaining sweet story. Can they surly teddy bear, tame the sweet feisty red rocket. I honestly volunteered to review this arc.
A fun and steamy read. The perfect enemies to lovers sports romance. LOVE!

They both are so opposite you would never think they could have anything in common. What starts as a crush and lust relationship soon develops into more.
I found the journey of these two characters engaging. As they build trust and understanding for each other, they are able to share more and more of their past. This is a journey of love as they both become each others safe place. This is a lovingly romantic story.
I am voluntarily reviewing this book. Thanks to the author for sharing a copy with me.
