Showing results for "Crush" in Sports

Luca DiBlanco has known me since I was a kid—and that’s all he’s ever seen me as. Until he shows up in Chicago when my world is crumbling and helps me piece it back together. Moving home to Valencia, Spain should have been a fresh start. Instead, it throws me right back into Luca’s orbit. Only now, the reliable, steady guy who’s always looked out for me… is looking at me. Differently. Closer. Like he’s tempted.

Protecting him is my duty, but falling for him could be my undoing. I’ve spent five years burying my past, leaving behind the violence and bloodshed of my former life as a Bratva enforcer. Now, I’m just Luca—the quiet guy who keeps his head down, working security for a professional hockey team. I don’t get close to anyone, and I definitely don’t let anyone get close to me. But then I’m assigned to protect Max Ryan, the team’s star defenseman, and everything changes. He's my obsession. My crush.

Seems the little girl who had a crush on me is all grown up. She ran away from our hometown a solid decade ago. Now she’s back for her brother’s wedding. For my friend’s wedding. Not gonna lie, I had no intention of crossing the line with her. Not back then. And not now. Until I catch her swimming in her parent’s backyard. Nope. Not even then. I’m determined to keep all thoughts of what she might look like naked at bay. Besides, I have more important things to worry about than how grown up Rory Buchanan is.

Ace Apollon ist der gefeierte Quarterback der Honolulu Hornets. Um ihn zu schützen, engagieren die Hornets eine Personenschützerin, die ihm nicht von der Seite weicht: Alana Amosa. Die Ex-Elite-Agentin ist kühl, distanziert und vollkommen unbeeindruckt vom Charme des attraktiven Football-Stars.

The first rule of hockey PR? Never. Date. A. Player. Which shouldn't be a problem—Tate Foster is the least dateable guy on the team. Logical. Bookish. Allergic to chaos. He hates attention almost as much as he dislikes me, the team's PR rep. But when I rope him into a social media stunt to boost his image, the unthinkable happens: it works. Suddenly, Tate—aka "Sheriff"—is looking like boyfriend material. And those dimples he tries to hide? Yeah… they're messing with my professional objectivity.

I've spent my entire life working for a shot at Nationals, but when my figure skating partner gets an injury right before the biggest season of my career, my chances of making a comeback vanish overnight. Until my dad—a professional hockey coach—forces me to pair up with the last person I'd ever choose as my partner: Leo Anderson. Sure, he's got the whole brooding, bad-boy thing down, but he's also got anger issues that landed him in trouble with his team.

Préparez-vous à embarquer pour l'Australie ! Depuis qu’elle est gamine, Stella a toujours rêvé de mettre les voiles loin de sa campagne natale. Elle aime plus que tout sa mère et ses six sœurs, mais être l’aînée de la troupe n’est pas toujours un rôle facile à remplir. Quand elle décroche ce job de baby-sitter à l’autre bout du monde, elle est aux anges. Lors de ses entretiens, elle a bien compris que la discrétion et la confidentialité étaient de mise. Si elle a fait profil bas pour s’assurer la place, elle a tout de même effectué quelques recherches personnelles.

My best friend was only supposed to be my fake date to a work event in Vegas. But when my ex showed up with another woman on his arm, my friend suggested the ultimate payback: pretending we were engaged. When I accidentally mention my medical insurance issues due to a car accident, he proposes taking our charade to the next level—a temporary marriage until I'm better. I nearly spit out my drink. Yeah, right. Like that won't completely ruin our friendship. But we can't go back now. Our charade worked so well that everyone bought it—even my ex, who leaked our Vegas wedding all over the internet.

I'm the coach's daughter, watching from the shadows as my father's best friend and star player wins the World Series for his team. Trick Lowry is almost twice my age and a bonafide celebrity, and I love him with my entire heart. It's the kind of secret, off-limits crush that feeds wild fantasies and reckless ideas—like sneaking into his hotel room while he's celebrating, just to have a little slice of him to myself. I innocently surround myself with his smell, thinking he doesn't have to know.

Nie wieder wollte ich in meine Heimat zurückkehren. Doch das Schicksal lässt mir keine Wahl. Nachdem in letzter Zeit einiges aus dem Ruder lief, bin ich nach Juno Mountain zurückgekehrt. Hier will ich ein neues Kapitel in meinem Leben aufschlagen und schließe mich den Ice Wolves an - einem chaotischen Haufen Eishockeyspieler mit dem Herz am rechten Fleck. Ich bin nur hier, um wieder auf die Beine zu kommen - nicht, um mich zu verlieben. Doch dann treffe ich Alyssa, die neue Physiotherapeutin unseres Teams. Sie ist klug, schlagfertig und wunderschön.

Last year, defensive end Deacon Harris witnessed the very worst of the Charleston Condors. After everything he and the team went through, he promised himself he'd walk away from football. But before he can retire, the team is sold to the last person he ever expected to see again. Deacon stays because the Condors are going into major rebuilding mode. New owner. New coach. New players.
