When our fate changed and our paths crossed again, nothing prepared me for the punch to the heart when I saw him...or his anger and bitterness. He was no longer the boy I once knew but a hardened Olympic swimmer with life goals that no longer aligned with mine. All because I lied. But sometimes, hiding the truth was necessary, especially when it freed someone you loved to reach their aspirations and dreams. It’s said that time heals all wounds, but I found was that it can also create an enemy.

Ever heard of impostor syndrome? Well, if you look it up in the dictionary, you'll find my picture beside the definition. I've been living in my older brother's shadow since the day I was born. Anyone would struggle to live up to the legacy of the great Jaxon Slate, hockey superstar and face of the league. But it's worse for me. Everyone expects me to be Jaxon 2.0, and I'm nothing more than an off-brand imitation. When I'm out and about, people see me and glance over my shoulder, hoping he's with me. Until her.

Ryder Malloy. Selfish. Arrogant. Self-absorbed. Prick. An epitome of manliness. Six-foot-three, all hard, chiseled muscle. My brother's ex best friend, and my new client. Four years ago, he took my innocence and left - without a word. Today, he's the star quarterback who needs an image makeover, And I'm his publicist, who doesn't quite believe him. Task at hand: Swallow my hate for him and concentrate on the job at hand - making Ryder look like a real life knight in shining armor. Complications: I'm falling for him all over again.

Heißer Eishockeystar trifft auf kühle Eisprinzessin. Ryder Steel spielt gegen die Zeit. Wenn er bis zu seinem College-Abschluss keinen Profi-Vertrag in der Tasche hat, muss er seinen Traum von einer Eishockey-Karriere aufgeben. Deshalb kann sich der Stürmer der Colorado College Varsity keine Ablenkung erlauben. Doch dann zieht die geheimnisvolle Eiskunstläuferin Bella Wynn in das Haus nebenan und weckt mit ihrer faszinierenden Ausstrahlung das Interesse des selbstbewussten Playboys. Dabei war das nie ihre Absicht.

Sobald sie aufeinandertreffen, fliegen die Funken. Endlich ist Blaire Calloways großer Tag gekommen. Monatelang hat sie darauf hingearbeitet, ihren Traum zu verwirklichen: die Cupcake- und Cocktailbar Buttercreme and Booze. Doch dann muss sie feststellen, dass direkt nebenan eine rustikale Sportsbar eröffnet - und dass der ebenso attraktive wie unverschämte Besitzer Ronan Knight zum Problem werden könnte. Schafft er es doch, mit seinem Charme und seinem umwerfenden Lächeln ihre Kundschaft abzuwerben. Aber das lässt sich Blaire nicht gefallen!

I always knew I’d marry my first everything, Declan Yaeger, the Southern boy with Irish roots. That was before he became my first heartbreak, a NHL superstar with a playboy reputation I no longer recognize. The summer he left our small Tennessee town, to pursue his hockey dream is the summer my life changed. That was seven years ago, before he became a defenseman for the Boston Hawks. Before I became a hardened, desperate woman, trying to survive. To protect my grandfather's legacy, I agree to marry my oldest childhood friend, Henry.

Jake Fischer has been here before: pitching for the Oakland Elephants, hiding his worries behind a smile, hoping to win it all. Ten years ago, it didn't turn out the way he wanted. Nothing in his life did. But now he's back—and so is the one teammate tied inexorably to his past. It doesn't matter how many times catcher Alex Angelides replays that moment during the Fall Classic over in his mind, the outcome never changes. He's not sure what happened to make that pitch glance off his glove, or what happened with his relationship with Jake—and he's not going to be the one to ask.

I’ve signed numerous players to my family’s agency - I assumed winning over my next client would be just as easy. The last thing I expected was to run into the boy who took my first kiss and broke my heart: only now Drew Bowman is all grown up. Sexy. Scandal-tainted. Second-string. The crush I never got over. aI tell myself work is the reason I can’t get him out of my head. I tell him his talent far outweighs his position, and I know I can help. I lie and lie, because admitting that I want a second chance at my first love is impossible.

I just don't love you anymore, were the last words Colton Winters said to me before he walked away and stayed gone for five years. Imagine my surprise when I meet the Atlanta Fire's new quarterback, and it's the man who broke my heart. Colton immediately starts his campaign to win me back, but I just don't know if I can trust him not to run again, but the more time I spend with him—those feelings I've pushed aside return with a vengeance. What's a girl to do?

Maisy Moore is not looking forward to the holiday season. As owner of the only hair salon in Gamble, Alaska, she'll be run off her feet helping her clients get dolled up for parties. Parties she'll never be invited to. But that's not the worst of it. As a single mom, she knows she still won't be able to give her seven-year-old son, Jack, the kind of magical Christmas his classmates get. If only she could give him what he really wants—to know who his dad is. The last thing Maisy needs is for NHL star Chase Evans to come waltzing back into town like he's God's gift to women.

Camile is tired of being overlooked because she's shy and plus-size. She's ready to reclaim her life, and she intends to start with a kiss from a legendary MMA playboy. Unfortunately, his grumpy teammate, Leo, has other plans.
