Izzy Thai has always played it safe. With her nose in textbooks by day and dominating the lacrosse field by night, there's never been time for dating-let alone drama. Shy-ish, sweet, and armed with a quick sense of humor, Izzy's life is a carefully balanced game of goals, grades, and going mostly unnoticed. Enter Elijah Jones: captain of the men's hockey team, loud in all the best ways, and impossible to ignore. He's the exact kind of distraction Izzy's spent years avoiding. But when their friend groups cross in the most subtle way, sparks fly faster than a slapshot. She's focused. He's chaos. She's all books and game. He's all heat and energy. When her friend first introduced them, not much happened. So when's a random class they took forces them into a semester-long partnership, sparks fly-but not the cute kind. Petty arguments, eye rolls, and clashing egos become the norm... until suddenly, it isn't. The more they fight, the more they learn. The more they learn, the harder it gets to deny what's building between them. Neither of them saw this coming. But maybe love doesn't always skate in a straight line. 2nd book of the My Kind series

Axel Brown was not particularly approachable. With a cold interior and a deadly stare he'd scare those who get to close away. So what was so different about Isabella June? She was everything he hated in a person. Chatty, loud, full of energy. A walking, talking ball of sunshine. The polar opposite. Well, his first mistake was falling into the traps of her. Falling so hard that he'd do just about anything to have her. His second mistake was burying himself in a void full of darkness and a life full of suffering with no way out other than the help of her. The girl who'd die for him, yet ultimately, live for him. ~~~ WARNINGS This story contains mature themes (strong language, violence, addiction, etc.) Copyright @khampadd 2022 - all rights reserved

Eden McKoy has spent the last three years fetching coffees, fielding tantrums, and fading into the background at SportsWest TV. Her title might read Executive Assistant, but Eden knows she's one photocopy away from a mental breakdown. Still, she'd do it all again if it meant landing her dream job in the film industry. So when she's unexpectedly assigned to direct a high-profile documentary, it feels like the break she's been waiting for. The catch? It stars Noah Thatcher - the NHL's golden boy turned cautionary tale. Noah is every publicist's worst nightmare: foul-mouthed, infuriatingly private, and allergic to cameras. Off the ice, he's as cold and brutal as his slapshot. And Eden? She's the newest thorn in his very expensive side. Thrown into close quarters and forced to work together, Eden and Noah clash from day one. She wants a story. He wants her gone. But as the cameras roll and tempers flare, Eden starts to see cracks in Noah's armor - and he sees someone who might actually understand the weight he's carrying. What starts as a professional disaster spirals into something far more dangerous: tension, longing, and a spark neither of them expected. But when secrets resurface and the past threatens everything, Eden will have to decide what matters more - the truth behind the lens, or the man who makes her want to drop it all. Enemies. Teammates. Maybe something more. In the world of sports and scandal, one rule always applies: play to win - or lose it all. 💌 Perfect for fans of Icebreaker and the Off-Campus series-this slow-burn hockey romance is equal parts spicy, snarky, and heart-wrecking.💌
