He was the boy she used to hate. She was the girl he never forgot. Years ago, Harper Jones dismissed Quinn Hughes as just another arrogant athlete. He, on the other hand, memorized every scathing word she ever said to him. Now, they're trapped in the same wedding party. The old rivalry instantly reignites with sharp jabs and unresolved tension-until a sudden career-threatening injury sidelines Quinn. Forced to slow down, he finds that Harper is the only person who actually sees him, not just the NHL jersey. As the line between teasing and tenderness blurs, old fears and lingering exes threaten to ruin their second chance before it even begins.

"If you feel it too... then maybe we were never just friends." Luke Hughes has never come home without Bailey Parker waiting. Michigan summers were always the same: Luke, Jack, and Quinn flying back the moment the NHL season ended. Lake days. Late nights. Inside jokes that never faded. And Bailey-his childhood best friend-right there in the middle of it all. She was his constant. His safe place. His. But not in a way that complicated things. Until this summer. A lingering look by the bonfire and a sudden shift in the air change everything. Suddenly, the boundary they spent a decade building feels fragile. As the summer heat turns friendship into something consuming, Luke has to decide if he's willing to risk the most important relationship in his life for the one thing he's always secretly wanted.

𐙚𓏲⋆ ִֶָ ๋𓂃 ⋆ It all started at an afterparty. The Outer Banks premiere had wrapped, and the night was alive with music, chatter, and the hum of celebration. Kaia Russell didn't expect much-just drinks, laughter, and catching up with her friend, Madelyn Cline. And then he showed up. Drew Starkey, with his easy smile and the kind of presence that's hard to ignore, joined their conversation. For a moment, it felt like everything paused-like the universe shifted just a little. But was it just that-a moment? A spark that would fade into the noise of the night? Or was this the beginning of something neither of them saw coming? One meeting. One night. And who knows-maybe one love story waiting to unfold. ۶ৎ real life x social media start: 12.12

With no one to turn to, she's left with only one person who understands her pain- the one she despises most. Will this be the start of a new world for Addie? Or was betrayal inevitable all along? - He tenses, eyes flashing, but he doesn't fight back right away. Instead, he leans in slightly, lowering his voice just enough that only I can hear. "Easy, sweetheart," he murmurs. "At least let me buy you dinner before you try to kill me." I tighten my grip on his shirt and jerk him forward-not enough to actually hurt, just enough to keep up the illusion. "Shut up and make this convincing," I mutter. He grins, a devilish glint in his eye.

Everyone knows the number one rule in the locker room: Don't even look at the coach's daughter. But Maddie Blake has never been great at following rules. After years of living in her dad's shadow, legendary head coach of the NHL's top team, she's finally back in town, older, bolder, and completely over hockey... or so she tells herself. Then she meets Levi Hunter. Captain of the team. League MVP. NHL's golden boy. And the one guy her dad has literally warned every player about. He's cocky, charming, and stupidly gorgeous. And for some reason, he won't stay out of her way, or her thoughts. What starts as innocent flirting turns into stolen glances at practice, late night texts, and a spark that threatens to become something deeper. In a world where the game comes first, falling for him might just be the riskiest play Maddie's ever made. And in hockey, one wrong move can cost you everything. *closed door romance*
