I accidentally witnessed a brutal murder. I froze, pretended I saw nothing, hoping I could leave it behind. But my plan backfired, and my life spiraled downward. Now, I’m the target of cold-blooded revenge. Jude Callahan isn’t just a hockey god—he’s a devil no one dares to cross. My existence disrupts his stardom, prestige, and possible serial killer career choice. And he’s set out to make me pay for that moment of silence.

Elijah and I were childhood best friends turned totally love-struck teens who swore we’d elope the summer after graduation. It was supposed to be forever. Then came the photos of him with other girls—posted all over social media. And his sudden refusal to talk about our wedding in public? Yeah, I panicked. So when a mysteriously convenient out-of-the-country internship landed in my lap, I took it. Oh, and I left on our wedding day.

Javier Valdez hasn’t had much luck with nannies, and he can’t imagine this one will be any different. Octavia Klein is all sass to his stoicism, free spirit to his hard work.

But he’s reluctant to admit it. Javier swore off love after his wife died, and Octavia has her own reasons for avoiding relationships.

My name is Poppy St. James, and I am going to kill Lukas Novikov! I've just landed my dream job as the director of public relations for the NHL's newest expansion team, the Jacksonville Rays, but the team owner has only granted me a one-year contract. If I want to stay, I'll have to prove myself. Easy. Public relations is in my blood. But it turns out professional hockey players are a major handful. No one is a bigger pain in my side than party boy defenseman, Lukas Novikov.

Sophie Caldwell might not like asking for help, but help is what she needs if she's going to save her family business from her uncle.

Yeah, fat chance of that happening since she hasn't had a boyfriend in years, and now she can't get her uncle off her ass.

Dealing with his disaster of an ex-wife is bad enough, not to mention delinquent football players and a meddlesome mother. Cam doesn’t have the luxury of time for anything more, especially a relationship. Even if it is Paige Carpino. She's smart and sweet, but at every turn, knocks him on his ass with the unexpected. That’s figuratively speaking of course. Paige might come in a small package, but she makes up for it in spirit. An energetic spit-fire who has some heat to her sauce, she’s dedicated to her new business, her family, and a select group of friends.

James "Law" Lawless is the star second baseman for the Richmond Rogues, the wildest group of free swingers ever to barnstorm their way through the big leagues. So when he hooks up with a seductive stranger at a costume party, it feels like he just hit the winning run of the World Series. Catherine "Cat" May was the hot number in that skimpy Wonder Woman costume.

Single mom Palmer Clark will not be sidelined by the new man in town. Sure, the honey-tongued baseball legend is gorgeous, loves puppies, and has charmed his way into the community’s heart, but Palmer craves stability. Nothing about Cole says forever. So why is he so hard to resist?

Noah Scotch is revered in Boston, a veritable god on the ice. I’m a nerdy, newly minted college professor who would rather color code my planner than hit the club scene.

One hot and intense night with Noah has me second guessing my lack of a dating life. Friends with benefits? He offers, I dive in headfirst.

Our story didn't begin the night I agreed to marry Deacon Kane to help him keep his daughter. It started ten years ago with a hotshot hockey player I couldn't wait to see each summer. He was big, broad, and filled out his board shorts so damn nicely. But holy hell… The memories of teenage Deacon don't hold a candle to the man he is now, the one who makes me melt each time he says, "My wife."

Eishockeystar Kiran Maloney soll bald das millionenschwere Familienunternehmen übernehmen. Dafür fehlt ihm laut Familienoberhaupt jedoch noch die Ehefrau. Als er die kratzbürstige Eve beim Duschen in der Mannschaftskabine überrascht, ist er überzeugt, eine Frau gefunden zu haben, in die er sich keinesfalls verlieben wird.

Former pro baseball player Linc Conner knows exactly where his head's at. Most of the time, he's completely focused on running his community center and focusing on the kids. But when it comes to single mom Emma Henricksen, Linc can't see straight. She's driven, resourceful—not to mention that smart, extra-kissable mouth—and when she's near, he gets lost in a fog of lust. But he needs her help to convince an investor they're engaged.

Life for Emma isn’t good. The world knows her as Princess Anya on Dark Castle, but then her character gets the axe - literally. The cherry on top is finding her boyfriend in bed with another woman. She needs a break, and sanctuary comes in the form of Rosemont, a gorgeous estate in California promising rest and relaxation.

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.

Evans Pemberton has always had a problem saying no - to her overbearing Mississippi Delta family, to her business mentor’s push to expand her thriving pie shop, and to her lifelong crush, Jake Champagne. But Jake chose her beauty-queen cousin three years ago and ghosted on their close friendship. When he comes to her small town in Alabama with a new pro-hockey franchise, Evie fears she’ll lose her heart all over again. Of course, she'll forgive him like the good Southern woman she is, but anything more than that is off the table. So why can’t she stop baking for him?

I have it all. I work my dream job doing animal-assisted therapy, I live with the four best friends in history, and I own an actual pair of Louboutins. I should be content. Right? Except, ever since an adorable toddler begged me to be her momma, I want more, and an insta-family is my only chance at motherhood. Unfortunately, her absurdly hot NFL star dad isn't quite as enthusiastic about me as she is. In fact, if I didn't know better, I'd think he was avoiding me. At least until his nanny leaves abruptly mid-season.

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.

I'm Paxton Wilder - motocross phenom & adrenaline junkie. I have more tattoos than scars. And I've never seen a stunt I couldn't pull off - or a girl I can't get off. Until she walks in. My new tutor is sexy, smart, more stubborn than I am, and 100 percent off limits. That's right - the only rule this semester is "Don't Touch the Tutor". For the first time in my life, I want someone I can't have. She's the girl who obeys every rule. I'm the guy who breaks them. Our biggest risk is falling for each other, but I live for risk...
