When photography student, Willow Kennedy, gets offered an internship with her college's renowned ice hockey team, The Michigan Wolverines, she anticipates three things: 1) Her twin brother being an unbearable and over-protective nightmare. 2) Her photographs not making any real impact whatsoever. 3) The team completely shutting out the curly-haired girl pointing a camera in their faces. What Willow didn't take into account, however, was the Wolverine's team captain. Rumoured NHL first draft pick, dreamboat and total game changer- Tate Wilder. With his infectious dimpled smile, sparkling green eyes and addictive personality, Tate quickly turns Willow's internship into a life-changing and eye-opening experience- one filled with love, friendship and opportunities. Willow didn't meet the Michigan Wolverines looking for love, and funnily enough neither did Tate, but love soon found them. ********* "Pretty please?" Her lip juts out in an irresistible pout and you'd almost think she was a sweet innocent flower judging by the puppy dog eyes she's flashing me. But that image is little tarnished by the hand she has dipped into my boxers. I can feel my Adams apple bob as I reply. "O-okay. Fine, you win this time." The smile I get in response is absolutely blinding. A full, mega-watt grin with teeth, crinkled eyes and blush on the apples of her cheek. I'll let her win everything if I get that fucking smile in return.

On dit que le cœur a ses raisons que la raison ignore... mais peut-on seulement les ignorer l'un et l'autre ? La raison voudrait que Léo Mazier se concentre sur la saison de hockey qui l'attend. Les Phœnix viennent d'être promus dans la meilleure ligue du pays et rien ne devrait le détourner de la glace. Du moins, c'est ce qu'il croyait... parce que son cœur, lui, ne pense qu'à Héloïse Aernout, la petite sœur de son capitaine et meilleur ami. De retour à Rouen après sept ans d'absence, Héloïse n'a qu'un but : faire briller l'équipe sur les réseaux sociaux. Si son arrivée réjouit les joueurs, sa raison la pousse à tenir son cœur à distance pour protéger les secrets et les mensonges qu'elle a ramenés avec elle. Cette tâche s'avère plus compliquée que prévu... car malgré les années et la distance, les sentiments que Léo éprouve pour elle n'ont jamais disparu. Cette année, il ne se battra pas seulement pour le titre : la victoire dont il rêve le plus ne se joue pas sur la glace, mais dans le cœur d'Héloïse. ⚠️ Merci de bien lire la note d'auteur et de prendre connaissance des trigger warning avant de débuter votre lecteur.
