Until her brother's teammate and captain skates into her world, making her question everything. Chase has been hockey's golden playboy for five years, but the game has lost its thrill. He's craving something real, something deeper than puck bunnies who only see his jersey. Just when he's about to give up, he meets Lindsey-his best friend's fiercely guarded little sister.

When sparks fly between the off-limits sister and the reformed playboy, both must decide: Is love worth risking everything? Or will the ghosts of their pasts destroy their chance at forever?

Emory James has always known she doesn't fit the mold her family built for her. While her parents and older sister thrive in courtrooms, Emory's heart belongs to helping animals and finding her purpose in quiet acts of compassion. Her mother and sister have always been supportive, but her father still insists she's "too smart to waste her life on animals." Now, after years of hard work, she's finally graduating as a veterinary technician and is ready to prove that following her heart was worth it. On graduation day, she's running late while also juggling her cap, gown, and nerves as she races through the city's hockey arena where the ceremony is being held. She ends up crashing straight into Callum Bennett, the hockey star of the BrooksRidge Sparks. Callum Bennett has never had trouble getting attention on or off the ice. With a killer smile, easy charm, and enough confidence to fill an arena, he's the kind of guy everyone recognizes and few really know. The son of a retired hockey legend and a brilliant college professor, Callum's been under pressure since he could walk. After losing his older brother years ago, he learned that keeping things light was safer than letting anyone close. Hookups? Sure. Relationships? Never. Feelings just slow you down. A few weeks later, fate intervenes when Emory's clinic partners with Callum's team for a "Paws & Players" adoption event. One glance and neither can pretend their hallway collision was just a coincidence. Between camera flashes and undeniable chemistry, Emory and Callum find themselves breaking every rule they swore to keep. They both don't do relationships. But sometimes, the best kind of love is the one that wasn't in the game plan at all.

They were best friends before they knew what love was. Now, Ivy Cooper might be about to lose everything-including him. Ivy Cooper has grown up in the spotlight. As the daughter of Columbia University legends and New York's golden couple, she's always lived with high expectations, an infamous last name, and a future people think they've already written for her. But Ivy has her own story to tell-and she's finally ready to tell it. Her first chapter? Columbia University, just like her parents. Her second? Falling for her best friend. Luca James-hockey prodigy, son of family friends, and the boy who's always been there-is everything Ivy swore she wouldn't fall for. Charming, loyal, infuriating, and completely off-limits. Their bond has always been unshakable, but the older they get, the harder it is to ignore the way he looks at her... and the way her heart races when he does. When Ivy's assigned to cover Columbia's hockey team for her journalism project, the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur. The pressure of family legacies, early NHL drafts, and old secrets threaten to tear them apart before they've even had a chance to figure out what this is. Because sometimes love plays dirty. And sometimes, the biggest risk is taking the shot you've been afraid to make all along. A friends-to-lovers sports romance filled with slow-burn tension, late-night confessions, and emotional depth, Offside Obsession is Ivy Cooper's bold, heartfelt debut about rewriting your story-and choosing love on your own terms.

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."

Her only escapes are the books she reads and the cheerleading routines she uses to mask the scars of her reality. All she wants is a way out, a chance to live her life on her own terms.

What begins as forced proximity soon becomes something neither of them saw coming-an undeniable connection that neither of them is prepared for.
