Il penultimo anno a Maple Hills si prospetta particolarmente duro per Henry Turner: a causa della sua cronica attitudine alla procrastinazione è finito nel corso dell'insegnante che detesta, che subito gli ha dato un pessimo voto. Ma ora che è capitano della squadra di hockey non può permettersi in alcun modo di fallire. Un aiuto sembra arrivargli da Halle Jacobs, timida studentessa modello, aspirante scrittrice e animatrice di un book club. Henry ha bisogno di una mano per preparare l'esame, lei di fare nuove esperienze per scrivere il suo romanzo: la base per un accordo perfetto.

Football is my everything. I live, eat, breathe the sport. But when I transfer to McKee University to escape the distractions that nearly cost me my future in the NFL, I’m faced with another consequence: retake and pass the writing class I failed at my last college, or lose any chance I have at making it big. That’s where fellow senior Beckett Wood—gorgeous, stubborn, and just my type—comes in. She’s the key to my success in this class… but the price of her help is a fake relationship, and I never do things halfway.

Grumpy meets Sunshine on Ice. Seit ihrer Kindheit träumt Anastasia Allen davon, es ins Team USA und somit zu den Olympischen Spielen zu schaffen, und dank ihres Stipendiums an der University of California sowie eines strengen, aber perfekten Zeitplans ist die Eiskunstläuferin ihrem Traum so nah wie noch nie. Doch plötzlich muss eine der wenigen Eissporthallen des Campus geschlossen werden, und kurz darauf fällt auch noch Anastasias Eiskunstlaufpartner aus.

Hockey is my life, and I need to make this last season count. But when I’m forced to transfer to rival school McKee University for my senior year, I risk pissing off the captain, who happens to be the older brother of Isabelle Callahan: the gorgeous beam of sunshine I messed around with in secret this summer. Rekindling our fling could risk her brother icing me off the team—not to mention the fact that my scarred past makes having a real relationship impossible—and yet the moment I see Isabelle again, all my wild, burning feelings come rushing back.

As a pro-bound college athlete with a good-time reputation, I usually have my pick of puck bunnies. But lately, I’ve been in a dry spell that feels more like a curse, and the stress is affecting my game–the one thing that can’t happen if I’m going to keep building my case for a future in the NHL, starting with making team captain. Enter Penny Ryder. She’s my coach’s daughter, but the moment she pulls me into that ice rink closet and lets me have my way with her, she’s the one thing on my mind besides hockey.

Der TIKTOK-Megahit geht weiter! Als Henry Turner zum neuen Captain des Eishockeyteams ernannt wird und ausgerechnet im ultraschweren Kurs seines meistgehassten Professors landet, wird klar, dass das neue Semester an der UCMH alles andere als ein Spaziergang werden wird. Doch Henry hat Glück im Unglück: Nachdem er aus Versehen den Buchclub von Halle Jacobs crasht, bietet die akademische Überfliegerin ihm an, ihm Nachhilfe zu geben - für einen Preis.

It’s my final season to prove myself before the MLB Draft. The last thing I need is a distraction–and especially not one as tantalizing as Mia di Angelo. She’s the drop-dead gorgeous astrophysicist-in-training who ditched me the moment I wanted to take us from casual to committed. Yeah. Ouch. But when she needs somewhere to stay for the summer… well. I offer her my place. Being roommates shouldn’t be so hard. Not distracting at all. Not the least bit challenging.

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.

Maren and Locke both exist in the same world of professional golf—he's the number one player in the world, while she just takes his picture. Never mind that Locke unintentionally leads the press to believe that he and Maren are dating, because when she confronts him, he couldn't care less. Add in a reality show Maren is unfortunately a part of with her now ex-boyfriend, the number two golfer in the world, and she finds herself propositioning Locke to teach her how to quit caring... about everything.

Paisley: One minute I'm sitting at the ballpark chatting with a handsome stranger, the next his lips are on mine and sparks are flying, while the whole world watches us on the kiss cam. As the daughter of a former professional baseball player, I know what it's like living in front of the lens. Which is why I chose a career behind the scenes and away from the spotlight. Post-kiss, I never expected to see Cameron Taylor again and certainly not playing for my team. I might want him more than my next breath, but I'm not willing to jeopardize either of our careers.

Parker: Of all the hot guys in the club, of course I find myself tangled up with a baseball player. Our chemistry is out of the park, igniting as his athletic body moves next to mine. I know exactly who he is, but the infamous Holden Bailey has no idea who I am, or my connection to the team. I prefer it that way. I give in to one dance with Holden and send him home alone. He can have any woman he wants, but for some reason, he wants me. His pursuit is relentless. He wrote the playbook on being a player, though. Giving in could cost me my heart.

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.

Sammy Braun, star goalie for the Vermont Vipers, is stuck. He's got the skill but can't seem to seal the deal—not on the ice nor with Harper, the team manager he's been crushing on. When I agreed to coach him, it wasn't just about sharpening his game. It was about helping him get his life together. But the more time I spend with him, the clearer it becomes: his real challenge isn't his slapshot or his crush. It's his heart that's holding him back. And maybe mine is what's at stake.

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.

After a nasty breakup with my ex, his dad takes pity on me and offers to drive me home. But when a snowstorm strands us in the middle of nowhere, we're forced to find a roadside motel with nothing to do… but each other. There's only one tiny bed... and he's huge. We wake up the next morning tangled like pretzels.

Die Person, die dir begegnet, ist die richtige. Jeder Moment, in dem etwas beginnt, ist der richtige Moment. Mit dieser Weisheit ihrer indianischen Vorfahren macht sich Grace auf den Weg nach New York, um ein neues Leben zu beginnen. Eigentlich hatte sie dafür der Männerwelt abgeschworen, doch sie hätte sich denken können, dass das nicht gutgeht. In ihrem neuen Job, als Osteopathin bei den Footballern der Tigers, hat sie es schließlich mit den heißesten Typen der Stadt zu tun.

My irresponsible mother strikes again leaving me with a surprise sibling. I need the money in my trust fund to take care of this baby, fast. The only way to get it? I have to be married. Enter Brett Ratcliff, star player for the Vermont Vipers and my ridiculously hot client. He's all charm, easy smiles, and bad decisions. He offers to marry me. He thinks marriage is a fun game; I think it's fraud. Moving in with him is supposed to be temporary. But there's something about the way he holds the baby… and me. This fake marriage is starting to feel way too real.

Griffin: All it takes is four days to change my carefully planned-out life. Four days to fall for Peyton Monroe. Four days to convince her to give me . . . us a chance. Before her, baseball was the center of my world. Being the best. Getting a full-ride scholarship. Getting drafted. Going pro. But from the moment my frisbee lands at her feet on the beach, I can't stop thinking about her. She's beautiful, funny, smart . . . and lives thirteen hours away. Long-distance love is a complication I should avoid, but staying away from Peyton is not an option.

I stupidly agree to allow a handsome hockey player to rent a room upstairs. Am I crazy? Maybe. Desperately broke? Most definitely. So imagine my shock to discover he's the cute hockey guy I kissed at my best friend's wedding last year. He still calls me princess and is unfairly gorgeous. And now I have to see him. Every. Single. Day. I'm trying not to trip over my own feelings—for the sake of this team and my job as the team's community relations manager.

Patineuse artistique star de l'équipe de Maple Hills, Anastasia Allen vit pour gagner.
