Pine River was supposed to be a new start for me. And it was, especially attending school with my three overprotective cousins, who were the triplets at the top of the social hierarchy. Except they weren’t alone there, and the first day when I came to school, I saw him. Scout Raiden. Tall. Lean. Tattooed. Mesmerizing. He was a golden god with dark and piercing eyes—looking like he wanted to eat me up. The feeling was mutual, and that was a problem.

In the heart of Barker University, a bond as strong as steel forms between Clara Lowe, a girl with a heart full of kindness and resilience, and Liam Russell, a rising hockey star with a steadfast sense of loyalty–until a betrayal shatters it, leaving Clara broken. When fate intervenes, bringing Liam back into Clara’s life, she stands at a crossroads: can she give their friendship a second chance, or is the damage already done?

Their parents being family friends, American/English aristocrat, Blake Sharp, and Scottish playboy Alasdair Wallace were thrust together all through their childhoods. Blake thought Dair was a filthy, obnoxious, little boy bully. Dair thought Blake was a spoiled, prissy wee miss. Then Blake grew up to be a beautiful, loving woman who took care of everyone and made amazing pistachio muffins. And Dair grew up to be a protective, fun-loving, hard-living professional rugby player. In the meantime, they’d both been deeply betrayed by lovers.

Hockey is my first love. And I’m coming off the best season of my life. In the process of scoring the winning goal that gave us the Stanley Cup I tore my MCL, and I’ll need to spend the next few months recovering. Eloise Gable, the team’s new physical therapist, has been sent to Rosewood River to help me heal and get me ready for the new season. Yet, she doesn’t seem all too happy about the situation.

Hockey prodigy Nat Taylor should've followed his father and brother to the NHL, but a dream-shattering mistake cost him his career. Now at thirty-five, he's desperate to give his teenage daughter a better life while struggling to hold onto his job as a Zamboni driver for the failing Day River Dingoes. But when a spicy meet-cute with the Dingoes' new captain sparks something far hotter than friendship, Nat finds himself worrying about more than just his daughter's college fund.

At a party on a rival college campus, I drunkenly stumble into a bathroom just as a tall, muscular man steps out of the shower...naked. Instead of fleeing, I stay put and end up having the hottest bathroom hookup with someone whose name I don’t know. Because I’m still in the closet, I don’t talk about what happened that night, glad that it was with a guy who doesn’t live in the same town. But come Monday morning, the naked man from the bathroom strolls into the locker room and locks eyes with me.

As the assistant to the coach of the River City Renegades, my life is a whirlwind of schedules, crisis management, and saving the day when things go sideways. I love my job, but sometimes I wonder if there's more for me out there. Then, I discovered my dad needs help. I'll do anything to support him—even if it means stepping out of my comfort zone. So when the team's publicist decides Ollie Decker, my long-time friend and the Renegades' star defenseman, needs a fake girlfriend to boost his image, I volunteer. After all, it's just pretend, it pays, and who knows Ollie better than me?
