RYAN
She's a distraction, that's what she is.
I'm the newest Captain of the Devils, Chicago's NBA team, and the last
thing I needed this year was for Indy Ivers, my sister's best friend,
to move into my apartment. She's messy, emotional, and way too tempting.
But when the team's General Manager vocalizes his blatant disapproval
of my promotion to Captain, referring to me as an unapproachable lone
wolf with no work-life balance, I can't think of a better way to
convince him otherwise than pretending to date my outgoing roommate.
The only problem? Faking it feels far too natural.
Having a fake girlfriend wasn't supposed to be messy but having Indy
under my roof and in my bed is complicated, especially when she wants
all the romantic parts of life that I could never give her.
INDY
I never imagined I'd be living with my best friend's brother, NBA
superstar Ryan Shay. Even more unbelievable? He needs me to act as his
loving girlfriend who's suddenly changed him into a friendly and
approachable guy.
Because, well . . . he's not. He's controlling of his space and
untrusting of others.
Our arrangement isn't one-sided, though. I'm in a wedding coming up,
one where every one of my childhood friends, including my ex-boyfriend,
will be in attendance, and there's no better date than my ex's
celebrity hero.
Blurred lines make it almost impossible to separate real from fake.
Falling for my roommate was never part of the deal, especially when
Ryan is quick to remind me that he doesn't believe in love.
I'm a romantic and can't help fantasizing that he'll change, but soon
enough, I find myself questioning if sharing a roof with my best
friend's brother was the right move after all . . .
The Right Move is the second book in the sensational Windy City series
which has gripped over a million readers across the world. But don't
worry if you're new round here, you'll still love it as a standalone!
What is wrong meets what feels right in this romance set in Italy by
the Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author of Deep End.
Maya Killgore is twenty-three and still in the process of figuring out
her life.
Conor Harkness is thirty-eight, and Maya cannot stop thinking about him.
It's such a cliché, it almost makes her heart implode: older man and
younger woman; successful biotech guy and struggling grad student;
brother's best friend and the girl he never even knew existed. As Conor
loves to remind her, the power dynamic is too imbalanced. Any
relationship between them would be problematic in too many ways to
count, and Maya should just get over him. After all, he has made it
clear that he wants her gone from his life.
But not everything is as it seems - and clichés sometimes become plot
twists.
When Maya's brother decides to get married in Taormina, she and Conor
end up stuck together in a romantic Sicilian villa for over a week.
There, on the beautiful Ionian coast, between ancient ruins, delicious
foods, and natural caves, Maya realizes that Conor might be hiding
something from her. And as the destination wedding begins to erupt out
of control, she decides that a summer fling might be just what she
needs - even if it's a problematic one.
HALLIE
When I was eleven, my family moved next door to his.
When I was thirteen, he was my first crush.
When I was sixteen, we fell for each other.
And when I was nineteen, we broke each other's hearts.
Six years later, I've landed an internship with a big-name interior
designer in a new city. Unfortunately, that city just so happens to be
the one he plays hockey for.
I thought Chicago was big enough to avoid him, until I get the surprise
of a lifetime and unknowingly move in right next door. Even worse? The
renovation project I'm assigned to in hopes of turning that internship
into my full-time dream job...
It's his house.
But how am I supposed to update his bachelor pad into a family home
when we can't even stand to be in the same room?
I may have loved Rio DeLuca once, but I'm not that same girl anymore.
RIO
I never thought I'd be the only single one left in my friend group. But
after years of trying to find love, I've concluded it may not exist for
me anymore.
That is, until I accidentally hire Hallie Hart to renovate my house and
our jaded history has me rewinding memories I've kept secret for years.
You see, there's something that my friends don't know.
That connection I've been looking for since I moved to Chicago, that
one person some search their entire lives to find . . . I had already
found her when I was twelve years old.
And now the only girl I've ever loved is moving into the house next
door.
Again.

standalone!
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Emily McIntire comes an angsty survivor romance full of secrets, and the final interconnected standalone in the Sugarlake series.

When Mason's past catches up to him, putting Lily and her son's life in danger, he knows he has to do something major to keep them safe.
Even if it means breaking both their hearts and losing them for good.

seriously. When a particular smoothie precedes Scott's breaking his
on-ice slump, he’s desperate to recreate the magic…and to get to know
the sexy, funny guy behind the counter.

fruit, but he never let himself imagine being invited back to Scott’s
penthouse. Or kissed with reckless abandon—and more. What goes on
between them is hot, incredible and frequent…but also only on Scott’s
terms and always behind his closed apartment doors.
Scott needs Kip in his life, but with playoff season approaching, the
spotlight on him is suddenly brighter than ever. He can’t afford to do
anything that might derail his career or the public’s image of what a
hockey captain should be. Kip is ready to go all in with Scott—but how
much longer will he have to remain a secret?

He's a wild card. She's a seasoned pro. Together, they might just be the perfect match in this sweeping romance between a figure skater and hockey player from the bestselling author of Collide. 'A perfect balance between wholesome and spicy, with two fleshed out and complex characters that you can't help but root for until the very last page' Stylist If you loved Icebreaker by Hannah Grace, you'll love this... Sierra Romanova was an Olympic figure skater before a life-altering accident left her with panic attacks every time she enters the rink. Now, back for her final year at Dalton University, she's ready to reclaim the spotlight. Kicked off his hockey team for reckless behaviour, Dylan Donovan has little to no chance of making it to the National Hockey League draft. But Dylan's whole world revolves around the ice so, if hockey is forbidden, at least there's figure skating. When Sierra finds herself in desperate need of a new partner, the only person who can match her skill is none other than the cocky hockey player who refuses to cut her any slack. On the ice, their chemistry is electric. But can they stand the heat off the rink?
The streets run red when you touch what’s his―and She. Is. His.

Because something in his eyes calls to the broken pieces in mine. Now I’m wondering if surrendering to him might be the first real choice I’ve ever made.

first place…

Theo and Kit have been a lot of things: childhood best friends, crushes, lovers and now estranged exes. After a brutal breakup on a flight to their dream European food and wine tour, they exited each other's lives.
Time apart has done them good. Theo is a bartender and aspiring sommelier with a long roster of lovers. Kit graduated as the reigning sex god of his pastry school and now bakes at one of the finest restaurants in Paris. All that remains is the unused voucher for the European tour that never happened. Four years later, it seems like a great idea to finally take the trip. Solo. Separately.
It's not until Theo and Kit board the tour bus that they discover they've both had the exact same idea, and now they're trapped with each other for three weeks of the most romantic sights and sensuous flavours of France, Spain, and Italy. But, it'll be fine as long as they agree they're absolutely over each other.
So, when Theo suggests a friendly wager to see who can sleep with their hot Italian tour guide first, Kit is game. In fact, why stop there? Why not a full-on European hookup competition?
But sometimes a taste of everything only makes you crave what you can't have.
