I haven't seen him since our high school graduation, long after we stopped being friends. Now I'm transferring to Henley, and working as a student medical assistant for the hockey team. For the first time in years, I'll be around Logan... The boy who broke my heart without ever realizing it was in his hands. ****The Henley Boys is a series of standalones.

What happens when the guy you can't stand becomes the solution to all your problems? --- Xavier Cole is a man-whore. A womanizer. A complete player. And on most days? A walking red flag. Unfortunately for me, he's also charming, reckless, and very publicly unattached. The kind of guy no one would ever question suddenly having a girlfriend... and the last person anyone would expect to be faking it. Which makes him the perfect solution when my ex shows back up in town, convinced he deserves a second chance. I didn't mean to kiss Xavier at the annual hockey team New Year's Eve party. I really didn't! But it happened. And now everyone thinks we're dating. That he's my boyfriend. Which might be my fault too... because I may have told people we were together. And he might be going along with it. The problem? Xavier Cole and I don't flirt... we spar. And apparently, we're supposed to be convincing as a couple. Which means we're going to have to make this work. Because if our cover gets blown, I'm screwed. - A fake dating, enemies-to-lovers hockey romance at Henley University - ****The Henley Boys is a set of standalone novels.

Sterling Carter's life is built on control-perfect grades, perfect form, perfect trajectory straight to the Olympic volleyball team. At twenty-two, she's the star outside hitter at the University of Michigan and top of her class in dentistry, the golden product of an old-money family that only loves success. One game, one bad landing, and one opponent's foot hidden under the net is all it takes to blow it apart. With a torn ACL and PCL and a nine-to-twelve-month recovery, Sterling's dream is suddenly on life support. The scouts stop calling. Her parents pull away. For the first time in her life, there's no plan she can grind her way through, no version of "try harder" that will fix what's broken. Enter Maddox King-twenty-four, captain of Michigan's D1 hockey team, human freight train on the ice, and soft-hearted menace off it. He has everything Sterling doesn't: a loud, loving family, a stupidly loyal group of friends, and the unshakable belief that people are worth more than what they can do. When a twist of timing and one overinvested best friend pull Sterling into Maddox's orbit, he becomes the one person who refuses to treat her like she's ruined. As the season she was supposed to dominate turns into a year on the sideline, Sterling has to learn how to exist without the one thing that's always defined her-and decide whether letting Maddox in is one more risky play she can't afford... or the first choice she makes entirely for herself.
