He's hockey's bad boy spending time in the penalty box of life. She's the heart of their charming small town. Opposites don't just attract—they combust. Jake "The Hammer" Riley might be famous for his fists and skill on the ice, but after one too many public brawls, he's been exiled to the snowy, remote town of Pinebridge, Minnesota. He's counting down the days, resigned to hockey purgatory, until he crashes—literally and figuratively—into the town's quiet librarian, Eleanor Vance. Nora guards her peaceful world and meticulously organized library like a fortress. Jake, with his ...

I made a deal with the devil, and he smells like ice and trouble. What started as a transaction ignites into something hotter than any oven in my bakery. Suddenly, faking it feels dangerously real. As the clock ticks down on our fake marriage deadline, I’m terrified that the only thing I might lose isn’t my bakery, but my heart to the hockey player who might be thawing my frozen defenses one stolen kiss at a time. My grandmother always said that good things come to those who wait. Turns out, all that waiting landed me in a financial mess I needed to escape if I wanted to keep my family ...

Sleeping with the enemy was my first mistake. Falling for her was the second. Evan The first time I saw Juliette Lawson, I knew she was trouble. Not the kind you run from. The kind you chase—knowing she’ll burn you alive. Smart. Sexy. A legal assassin in heels. I didn’t know she had a plan. That she was using me. And I sure as hell didn’t see it coming— The moment she’d tear my world apart. Because I fell for her first. And now? I might not survive her truth. Juliette Evan Sinclair is everything I should hate. Sinfully handsome. Recklessly rich. I didn’t know who he was—not ...

Notorious heartbreaker and handsome-as-sin hockey captain, Wolfe Judd is the golden boy on campus. He could have any girl he wants...and he wants me. He sees beyond my surface. The way his stormy blue eyes watch me...I feel beautiful for the first time since my accident. Little by little, he tears down my walls, exposing a passion that leaves me breathless and a vulnerability that could leave me shattered. But all my scars aren’t on the outside, and the ones inside whisper that a guy like him will never fall for a damaged girl like me.

Eva Bradshaw used to have standards. But with bills piling up and a six-year-old daughter to feed, there’s not much the former Olympic figure skater wouldn’t do for some extra cash, even if it means violating her hard limit: hockey players.

I've sworn off women because I caught my fiancee with my brother. Now, they're both dead to me. They represent an ache so deep, I might never recover. I've never known a goal I couldn't score - or a girl I couldn't score with. Until I see her curled up in a sexy ball in my hospital room. She's off-limits. Julia Wales is lush, smart, more determined than I am, and 100 percent taboo. For the first time in my life, I want someone I can't have.

My life's defined by my long career as a quarterback. I'm determined to have a great season because I'm not sure how many I have left. But when I slam into gorgeous reporter Kelsey Cole on the sidelines, my focus on the game takes a backseat to my fascination with her. She's tiny, smart, fierce, and makes me feel young again. There's only one problem: she hates football—with good reason, too. Still, you don't become a champion quarterback without learning how to fight for what you want. Football's always come first, but Kelsey might be the one to change that.

The day Shane boarded the plane for basic training, I was happy for him. He escaped a life we both despised. Then he was killed in action before I had the chance to tell him I loved him. Now I write letters he'll never read. Talk to a cold gravestone, heard only by the wind...and maybe that guy in a baseball cap I only glimpse before he disappears.

Yes, I’m a single dad who needs a nanny for the summer. But hiring the stranded runaway bride who shows up on my doorstep in a wedding gown with no references, no skills, and no experience? No one is that desperate.

Marrying Beckett Coleman is the best idea I've had in years. I can grant my sick dad’s wish to walk one of his daughters down the aisle, and Beckett has my help solving a custody situation with his daughter. Our plan is to spend a year together, then part ways. Easy, especially since I'm not his type, and he's not mine either. He’s too quiet and too serious. And while he’s distractingly gorgeous, he’s also my brother’s teammate. Beckett is fake husband material, not the real deal. I just have to remember that.
