[actively editing] With her nose in books and his brawn getting him nowhere on or off the ice, they find themselves drawn together, sharing their baggage and learning what it might mean for each of them to love again. Jake Bryers is no stranger to the pressures of being a professional hockey player. It's something that he's dealt with consistently for the past fifteen years. Throughout his career, he's experienced it all-the electric thrill of winning divisions and conference titles, and even making it to the Stanley Cup Finals on more than one occasion. His dream was always to skate the cup at least once, but as he enters the late stage of his long, tumultuous career, he finds himself struggling to perform like he once had as a younger, inspired player. Harper Clark has been proficient at one thing throughout her life-constantly moving forward without really going anywhere. After having moved to the Big Apple to pursue a better life outside of the dangerous one she found herself leading in the Midwest, she finds herself stagnating after getting her degree from Columbia. She quietly enjoys her job at the public library, treading water while the undeniable feeling of discontent grows stronger within her. It's nothing short of fate when Jake and Harper happen to cross paths at the library, and though their lives couldn't be any more different, they find themselves inexplicably drawn to one another as they try to navigate mending each other's wounded hearts.

Ace Pierce was a typical, cocky college guy trying his best to get through his life, living in the shadow of his older brother, Spencer. Ace had been with a couple of girls, but none compared to the girl he was obsessed with. Caroline Manick. Ace has had his eyes set on her since the moment he saw her. He never had a chance to make a move until he met her best friend, Kiara Del Marco. Kiara was nothing like Ace. She always played it safe when it came to anything. Her past played a big part; she never tried to step out of her comfort zone, so she never had the guts to tell Spencer Pierce how much she liked him until she met his brother. The two decide to make a deal with each other that will either end in complete chaos or help them win the two people they were rooting for.

First book 🏒. Starting college was supposed to be Violet Vale's escape plan. New country. New city. New campus. And then there's Ethan Maddox-tattoos inked like warnings, that infuriating smirk, and a six-foot-five presence that fills every room like he owns it. Her brother's best friend. Her worst enemy. And now? Her accidental shadow at Northbridge University. Violet's spent years trading insults and eye-rolls with Ethan, ever since he became an honorary part of her family. But there's nothing brotherly about the way he looks at her now-or the way her pulse reacts when he calls her Vi like it's some kind of challenge. He's cocky. Infuriating. One year older. And the only person on campus who makes her feel anything at all. They're not friends. Definitely not something more. But the line between hate and something far messier is starting to blur. And when hearts get tangled... Someone's going to fall. Warning: May contain profanity and sexual content.

«Και, υπόκλιση!» Τα νούμερα της Ίριδας είναι πολύ συγκεκριμένα. Είναι μόνο τρία: το ένα, το πεντακόσια και το σαράντα-πέντε. Ούτε μισό παραπάνω ή λιγότερο. Αυτή την πραγματικότητα έχει δημιουργήσει και δεν την αφήνει πίσω. «Το μπλε είναι το αγαπημένο μου χρώμα» «Απεχθάνομαι το μπλε» Ο Παγκόσμιος διαγωνισμός φαίνεται σαν μια ακόμη δοκιμασία. Η Ρωσία, ωστόσο της επιφυλάσσει τον μεγαλύτερο χορό που θα κάνει ποτέ. Τα δεδομένα αλλάζουν, τα νούμερα αλλάζουν, τα χρώματα αλλάζουν (;), ομοίως και εσύ. Ίρις-Άλεξ ||2023-2024||

"Της άρπαξα τον καρπό και την ανάγκασα να γυρίσει εκατόν ογδόντα μοίρες ώστε να με αντικρίσει. «Με πονάς»παραπονέθηκε. «Θέλω να ξέρω ένα πράγμα και μετά θα σε αφήσω» είπα και εκείνη προς απάντηση έκανε να πάρει το χέρι της από το κράτημα μου. Άδικος κόπος «Άφησε με» είπε σχεδόν συλλαβιστά τις λέξεις και με κοίταξε με εκείνο το βλέμμα που μόνο αυτό δεν εννοούσε. Δεν άντεχα να είμαι τόσο κοντά της και να μην μπορώ να συνθλίψω τα χείλη μου στα δικά της." ...

Οι ισορροπίες ετοιμάζονται να διαταραχθούν το ίδιο και η φιλική σχέση μεταξύ τους...

"You'll come back?" I just wanted him to assure me that he would be safe. He was strong yes, but I was conflicted. "Always, tulip." He gently stroked my hair as he extended his pinky finger.
