Fallon Hayes thought she was dating Colorado's golden quarterback. She didn't know Easton Avery had a wife, three kids, and an entire life waiting for him at home. After ending their relationship and discovering she's pregnant, Fallon's world begins to fall apart - until a sweet NHL player named Luca Bennett unexpectedly steps into her life and shows her what real love looks like.

He's the NHL star with a cold reputation--she's the spark that could melt it all. All Lilah wants to do is keep her head down, finish her online college course, chase her dreams of becoming a baker, and survive. But when a photo caught at the wrong time with the NHL's newest star, Cole Becker, goes viral, she's suddenly thrust into the limelight--exactly where she doesn't want to be. And when the person she tried so hard to escape from resurfaces because of her new popularity, Lilah has no choice to run to the safety of fame and Cole Becker as his fake-girlfriend. Because no one can lay a finger on the newest sweetheart of hockey, can they? But Cole makes her feel things she's never felt before and she wants nothing but to be loved by the boy that makes her feel beautiful and safe. Cole Becker needs an out, and fast. A stupid rumor built on absolutely nothing is threatening to destroy the reputation he's barely built. He's only a few games into his rookie NHL season and already he's been nicknamed the NHL's "Ice King;" scary, domineering, and arrogant. So when Lilah crashes her way into his world, he has no choice but to fake-date her, to both help his reputation, and to help the girl who's already got him wrapped around her finger. He wants to show her she's worthy of love. She wants to be loved by him. And when the lines between real and fake start to blur, Lilah has to let go of the secrets in her past holding her down and let herself love the goalie. But someone is lurking in the shadows, ready to steal Lilah away from the life she's tried so hard to build.

Bella Moore has spent her life running away from hockey. Growing up in a family obsessed with the sport, she watched her father, coach of the Boston Bruins, devote himself entirely to her brother Antony's career, while she disappeared into the background. Now 26, she is a therapist who helps teenagers overcome addiction. All she wants is a quie and simple life far away from hockey. Lucas Moreau is everything Bella is not. He is the NHL's most famous bad boy, a French Canadian enforcer for the Montreal Canadiens. Charismatic, arrogant, and unapologetically aggressive, Lucas loves to dominate, attract attention, and break hearts. When their worlds collide, the rivalry between Boston and Montreal isn't the only source of tension.

It all went downhill the moment she kissed him in the penalty box. Because apparently, that's not something people do casually - especially not in front of a crowd, through glass, while he's supposed to be serving time for fighting. They were supposed to fake date for PR. Stand close. Look convincing. Don't catch feelings. Simple. Except it stopped being simple somewhere between viral photos, very real-looking kisses, and a friend group that has fully committed to planning their wedding like it's already happening. Now they're stuck in something that was never supposed to feel real - but somehow does. At this point, the only fake thing left... is the original plan.

"Nolan..." I say as his lips meet my neck. He gently kisses up and down my neck. "Stop." I say. "You're not my boyfriend, stop acting like it." "Oh kitten." He says while nibbling on my earlobe. I stifle a moan. "When will you realize that you are mine?" // If there is one way to show a boy who's boss, it's to smash them into the boards. Kaelin Summers knows that better than anyone.

All of them have short fuses and bad tempers, and the protectiveness that only someone who belongs to a team can have. Kaelin has to resist his charm. Nolan has to break down her walls. *LOTS OF SWEARING READ AT YOUR OWN RISK*

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.

But life pulled them apart, leaving memories that linger like shadows. Now, fate brings them together again. A chance meeting in Clara's clinic sets off a slow, teasing, and irresistible pull. Friendships are tested, walls are challenged, and hearts are pushed toward a possibility neither thought they could risk. Fracture Line is a slow-burn, friends-to-lovers romance about love that sneaks up when you least expect it, the fragility of trust, and the invisible cracks in our lives that sometimes lead us to the people who can make us whole.
