Adalyn

I’ve been planning my trip across the world for years. So, imagine my surprise and utter disappointment when unforeseen circumstances leave me with no travel companion and a wallet too empty to reschedule. Far too stubborn to cancel, and left with little options, I turn to the only person who just so happens to have the entire summer free.

Cooper White is my older brother’s best friend. He’s the fixer. The sweet one with all the right words. I expect him to be boring and quiet. But with each day we spend together, I’m learning that there’s more to him than meets the eye. We quickly become best friends, but one drunken night is all it takes to change everything.
And now . . . now he’s my husband.

Adalyn Hutton is an enigma. I never expected us to grow so close so fast, but she’s impossible to keep at a distance. Each day spent with her slowly chips at the wall I built between us until there’s nothing left of it but rubble.

Considering my friendship with her brother, accidentally marrying her should be the mistake of a lifetime. But it feels like the opposite. There’s no turning back now. One glance at my ring finger and I’m reminded of the promise we made to one another, and I can’t seem to look away.

I’m the face of the NHL. The golden boy with quick hands and a million-dollar smile that the fans adore.

My contract is up at the end of the season, and with playoffs starting, I have to be on my best behaviour. Keep my head down and respect the press when they shove their microphones beneath my nose. This isn’t my first rodeo, so it should be easy. Right?

No. Not this time. One bad call and I’m the poster boy for poor decisions.
I haven’t seen my childhood best friend since the day her father betrayed me and she broke my heart. Now, eight years later, she’s back. And she’s my fake girlfriend for the next two months.

Some wounds never heal, and the moment I see Braxton Heights, I know mine have not. But she’s the only shot I have at saving my reputation and securing my new deal, and while I might have lost her all those years ago, I refuse to lose hockey.

I just hope I’m strong enough not to fall for her all over again in the process.

Everyone knew the rules.

Gracie Hutton was off-limits.
But Tyler's never been one to follow rules.
And now she's about to become his ultimate sin.

Tyler Bateman doesn't know what easy means. He's never had an easy day in his damn life. Everything he has he's worked for. Blood, sweat, and tears.

Hockey is his escape, a passion he never knew he could possess. He wants to succeed. He wants to prove that he's worth something.

He wasn't expecting her to matter. He didn't want her to. But she had other plans, and now his best friend's sister is about to ruin his life.

And he might just let her.

Adam White has been called many things but single dad was not one he expected.

At twenty-three Adam’s life changed forever – suddenly he was the father to a son he never knew existed – but he’s spent the past ten years managing to raise his son and juggle his business. White Ice Training is now one of the best hockey training facilities in Vancouver. But when he recruits a new hockey trainer, she lights a flame inside of him that he thought had long since burnt out.

One terrible game was all it took for Scarlett Carter to lose everything. After a career-ending injury destroys her chances of ever playing professional hockey again, she finds herself lost in a mess of broken dreams. Moving back home to Vancouver was never in the playbook.

Scarlett wants to forget about the world that broke her, but a new job at White Ice won’t let that happen. The more time she spends with Adam, the harder she’s finding it to resist him.
She can’t help but wonder why he cares so much about her. And more importantly, why can't she bring herself to skate away?

OAKLEY

I have one goal. To be drafted into the NHL and make my father proud. I've never been interested in dating, not when all of my spare time is spent at the rink perfecting my craft. There's no time for distractions. I can't afford them.

But she came out of nowhere. Octavia Layton, the girl with the pretty smile and the broken heart. One night spent talking beneath the stars and now she won't get out of my head.

I never expected to see her again, but now she's here in this new city, with ties to my new team, and I don't think I'm strong enough to fight against her pull.

I hate hockey players. After a nasty breakup, I've sworn them all off for good. Or so I thought.

We met when I had puffy eyes and a broken heart, but I didn't know who he was until he shows up in my city months later as a new member of our local hockey team. The sweet guy who so easily made the ache in my chest go away with lame jokes and a swoon-worthy smile is here, and he wants me.

Despite everything I said I wouldn't do, I can't seem to stay away from him. But dating a future NHL player isn't the life I imagined for myself, and as things keep going wrong, I'm starting to wonder if maybe the best-made plans aren't always the ones you expect.

Tinsley Lowry is my obsession. Tinsley Lowry could be my downfall.

I've known Tinsley since we were children, two souls tangled in a bond that defied explanation. Her name echoes in my mind like a song. The world sees me as a rockstar, but it's her who sees the parts of me I've kept hidden from everyone else.

When Tinsley joins me on my tour, and we travel from city to city, a nagging feeling grows that someone is lurking in the shadows, watching her, waiting for her. The protectiveness I've always felt for her is driving me to insanity.

With each day that passes, it becomes clearer that I want more. My need for her has erupted into a raging inferno. I'm not seeking redemption; I'm embracing the darkness that defines me in an effort to keep her safe.

Can my obsession protect her against what I can feel coming, or will it become what devours us both?
