When a scandal forces hockey star Amelia Bennett into a fake relationship with guarded photographer Harper Lane, neither expects the headlines, or the feelings, that follow. What starts as a PR stunt begins to spark into something real, threatening to expose more than just their hearts. *** She's the world's best hockey player. She's a heartbroken photographer with nowhere else to go. And they were never supposed to fall in love. At 24, Amelia Bennett is the most talented hockey player on the planet-chaotic, impulsive, and the last Bennett standing without a ring on her finger. After a very public scandal threatens her sponsorships and reputation, the team's PR crisis plan is simple: clean up her image fast. Step one? A fake relationship. Something that should be easy, right? Harper Lane has no interest in fame, or falling for another golden boy-or girl-with a spotlight stitched into their skin. After catching her long-term boyfriend cheating, she's sworn off chaos and charm. But when her best friend Audrey begs her to stay with Millie temporarily, Harper finds herself in the middle of a media storm-and somehow agreeing to pretend to be Millie Bennett's girlfriend. It's only for the cameras. Just long enough to fix Millie's image. Just enough to keep Harper's ex boyfriend off her back. But fake smiles turn into real moments. Cold shoulders warm under shared blankets. And the girl Harper was warned about-the reckless, beautiful mess, is nothing like the one who makes her tea when she's anxious and kisses her like she means it. In a house built on secrets, one accidental love story is about to make headlines.

Known on campus as the life of the party and the golden girl of Columbia University, Eliana shines in every room she walks into-bold, beautiful, and unapologetically confident. But behind her wild reputation lies a dream she's kept close to her heart: to become a world-renowned fashion designer. Everything changes when she crosses paths with Nate Clarke-Columbia's hockey captain, heartthrob, and self-proclaimed playboy. With a scar that slashes across his eye and a past he's careful to hide, Nate is as mysterious as he is magnetic. The chemistry between them is undeniable, but as Eliana gets pulled into Nate's world of late-night practices, hidden wounds, and unexpected vulnerability, her party-girl persona starts to crack. In a story about love, identity, and the pressure to live up to the names that came before them, Eliana Grace must decide whether to follow the path expected of her-or create one entirely her own.

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.

❝Read me your favorite pieces of poetry while I please you❞ I feel his hardness grow underneath me and watch as his chest begins to rise and fall. His lips part open with heavy breaths.
