She swore she'd never skate again, but the ice has a way of pulling you back-especially when the town's hockey star is watching. When Calliope Brooks loses her mother, her life is turned upside down. Forced to leave behind the familiarity of her old world, she moves to the small town of Lakehurst to live with her estranged father, the coach of the local boys' hockey team, the Lakehurst Sirens. Once a promising figure skater, Calliope has sworn off the ice-until a chance encounter with Grayson Maverick, the Sirens' star player and school heartthrob, ignites something she thought she'd lost. As Calliope finds herself drawn back to the rink, she's thrust into the chaotic, competitive world of hockey. Navigating budding friendships, lingering grief, and her growing feelings for Grayson, Calliope discovers that sometimes the only way to move forward is to embrace what makes you whole-on and off the ice. But as she steps into a role no one expected, Calliope must prove she has what it takes to be more than a fragile figurine-and face the pressures of skating with, and against, the boys who dominate the game. #1 icehockey (19th May 2025) #1 hockey (13th April 2025) #1 figureskating (20th April 2025) #1 coachesdaughter (20th April 2025) #2 greif (20th April 2025)

FIRST BOOK OF THE VELVET & VOWS SERIES ♟️❤️‍🔥! ------------------------ Isabella Romano left her parents with nothing but a dream. Years later, she is a famous fashion designer with her own luxury brand in New York. Power. Money. Success. She has it all. What she doesn't know... is that New York is owned by the mafia. And the man who controls it is Matteo Lorenzo Moretti. Their worlds should never collide. But when they do, there is no escape. Because Matteo never loses what belongs to him. And once he sets his eyes on Isabella... she becomes his obsession. ----------- "Dio, Isabella... guarda cosa fai a me." (God, Isabella... look what you're doing to me.) he murmured, my name falling from his lips like a warning and a confession at the same time. I swallowed hard, my throat suddenly too tight. He lifted his hand, slow enough that I could've stepped back. I didn't. His fingers brushed my waist. Just barely. A ghost of a touch. But it lit every nerve in my body on fire. I exhaled shakily, my voice barely a whisper. "Matteo..." His jaw flexed. His eyes dropped to my lips. Heat rippled through the space between us. And then - completely undone - he whispered, "Fuck it." Before I even realized he'd moved, his mouth crushed against mine. The kiss hit me like a shock - fierce, hungry, weeks of tension igniting in one impossible explosion. His hand slid behind my neck, pulling me into him as if he'd been holding back a storm and finally let it break loose. ------------ #1 gunfights - 01/22/2026 - 01/25/2026 #1 fashiondesigner 01/25/2026 #1 badboy 01/25/2025

My breath hitched in my throat as I registered everything. His eyes no longer had that innocent look they usually did.

I looked at her possessively before grabbing her by the nape of her neck and pulling her closer to me, our lips a breath away. "You are mine. Only mine. Understand?" I gritted out and she nodded slowly. "Good. Because I'll fucking kill any man who lays his hand on you. On what's mine." I said and crashed my lips onto hers.

An internal voice whispered, "Call him." But I chose not to. I dismissed it once more, saying, "He never liked me anyway." Yet the dilemma lingered. "But maybe he does. The way he looks at you... it's different." Out of nowhere, he glanced my way. My heartbeat quickened, sending shivers down my spine. I averted my gaze, pretending to look around. "Has he noticed me?
