Ben and Olivia are either laughing or at each other's throats-there's no in-between. To the outside world, they're chaos and charm. Banter and barbs. But underneath the teasing nicknames and constant one-upping, there's something deeper neither of them dares to name. Olivia hides her feelings behind sarcasm and a smile that rarely reaches her eyes. She cries in the shower, keeps people at arm's length, and refuses to let anyone see the cracks-especially Ben. Ben, the guy who masks his anxiety with bravado and charm. The one who's terrified of being alone and finds comfort in the noise... even when that noise is Olivia yelling at him. They weren't supposed to fall. Not for each other. Not like this. But sometimes, love doesn't arrive quietly. Sometimes... it collides. It tangles. And sometimes, it clashes.

Logan Romano didn't just enter the NHL. He tore through it. Dark. Brooding. Untouchable. With brutal talent and a reputation as cold as the New York winter, Logan dominates both the ice and every room he walks into. He doesn't lose. He doesn't bend. And he certainly doesn't fall in love. Not after the last time. Not until November Levine crashes into his life like a beam of sunlight he never asked for. She's warmth where he's storm clouds. She's soft where he's jagged edges. A walking contradiction to everything Logan swore he needed. When a deal forces the polar opposites under one roof, tensions ignite fast. Teasing turns to feuds. Feuds turn into something dangerously close to desire. And Logan is forced to confront the one promise he's never broken. Because once you step into the light- it's impossible to return. ✩ Grumpy x sunshine • forced proximity • slow burn Will the hockey captain cross that line? ✩ "Nova." I whisper, my voice low and hoarse against her neck. "Stop it." "Stop what." She whimpers back innocently as her thighs tighten around my hips. My teeth nip at the skin on her jaw in warning. "Either stop teasing, or put me out of my fucking misery." November pulls her head back from mine, resting it against the wall, and bats her lashes up at me. "Say please."

LAST CHANCE TO READ !! It's getting published on kindle so i will most likely remove this story from Wattpad !! -- They're the golden pair everyone swears should be together-he's the football captain, she's the cheer captain. On paper, Theodore Grayson and Olivia Thompson are the picture of campus royalty. In reality? They can't stand each other. Theo is cocky, reckless, and infuriatingly charming, the kind of guy who never hears the word no. Olivia is sharp, unshakable, and has zero patience for his smug grin or his legendary reputation. He thrives on provoking her. She swears he's the last person she'd ever fall for. But when their worlds keep colliding-on the field, at parties, through friends they have in common.. lines begin to blur. Hate turns into something hotter, sharper, and far more dangerous than either of them expected. Because the only thing worse than despising Theodore Grayson... might be wanting him.

Tyson Reed is hockey's golden boy-talented, charming, and a notorious manwhore. He's used to getting whatever (and whoever) he wants. But when he meets Sophie Carter, the no-nonsense, commitment-phobic woman who wants nothing to do with him, he's thrown off his game. Sophie isn't impressed by Tyson's cocky grin or his flirty reputation. She's focused on her career and has no time for a player like him. But Tyson doesn't take no for an answer, and soon he's determined to prove that he's more than just a manwhore. One night of passion turns into something neither of them expected, but when morning comes, Sophie walks away, convinced a relationship with Tyson is a mistake. Tyson, however, isn't used to losing. He wants more than just a fling, and he's willing to fight for it. As the sparks fly and their worlds collide, Sophie must decide if she's willing to risk her heart on a man who's spent his whole life avoiding commitment. For Tyson, this game is for keeps.

Completed • First Draft - not edited. || "You gonna sit there all night?" Luka glances at me, smirking. I glare back. "I was enjoying the last few seconds of peace before having to spend an evening pretending to like you." "That's funny," he says, unbuckling his seatbelt. "Why?" I snap. "Because I was thinking the same thing." || The rules? Easy enough. 1. Pretend to be the perfect couple. 2. Keep it professional. 3. And whatever you do, don't. catch. feelings. Simple, right? Sofia Calloway never planned on going viral for throwing a drink in Luka Mikhaylov's face. But one video, one pissed-off hockey star, and one furious university later... she's suddenly stuck in a fake relationship with the guy she can't stand. He needs to clean up his image before the NHL draft. She needs the free tuition that comes with the deal. All they have to do is smile for the cameras, hold hands at the games, and act like they don't want to strangle each other. Then come the late-night arguments that last too long. The stolen glances that feel too dangerous. The moment where "pretend" starts looking way too real. Because when you break the rules, someone's bound to lose. And this time, it might be both of them.

She was supposed to leave him behind. Instead, he followed her home - with a grin and a proposition she can't seem to refuse. • • • Leon Collins has an uncanny resemblance to temptation - and Charlotte Hudson knows better than to touch it twice. As maid of honour to her best friend and sister-in-law-to-be, Charlotte's only job is to keep the wedding week flawless. But that's easier said than done when the best man is Leon: her brother's best friend, her best friend's brother, and the one mistake she swore she'd never make again. They danced too close once - too drunk, too messy, too young - but there's always consequences to dancing with temptation and Charlotte has paid the price. One she promises herself she won't ever revisit. But now they're walking down the aisle together, tension simmering under every glance, every brush of skin, every drunken confession that never should've left her lips. When the week ends, Charlotte thinks she's leaving the past - her young and stupid mistakes - and him behind for good. She's wrong. Because Leon Collins just got traded to her new team. Now he's in her office, in her space, and in her head - all charm, smirks, and a proposition that shouldn't sound as tempting as it does. One rule. No feelings. Just a physical arrangement to burn off the heat neither of them can seem to ignore. But desire this dangerous doesn't play by the rules. And the closer Charlotte gets to Leon, the more her carefully built walls begin to crack. She promised herself she'd never fall for him again. But Leon Collins has always been the one risk she can't resist.

Matteo is a reserved and introverted hockey player with a quiet demeanor who hides his natural sweetness and understated charm. He's the kind of guy who speaks through his actions, offering silent support and genuine kindness to those he cares about. Beneath his stoic exterior lies a deeply empathetic soul, making him the kind of person others instinctively trust. Rovena, on the other hand, is a vibrant extrovert who lights up every room she enters with her humor and effortless charisma. Sweet and caring on the surface, she exudes confidence and warmth, drawing people in with her lively personality. However, deep inside, Rovena harbors a storm of sadness and anger that she hides from the world, burying her pain behind her radiant smile and sharp wit. Together, they are a study in contrasts-Matteo's quiet strength complements Rovena's bold spirit, creating a dynamic connection filled with unspoken understanding and unguarded moments.

Wren Ashby doesn't go to Cole Reid's games. She doesn't wear his colors, doesn't know his number, and she definitely doesn't think about him. Except she does. She just wishes she didn't. He's the captain of the wrong team, her brother's biggest competition, and the last person she should want anything to do with. But he also sat with her on a cold concrete floor and gave her his jacket without being asked. And she's still not sure what to do with that.
