Amelia Promise has spent her life just one treehouse away from the Evermore brothers. Growing up next door, she and Cole Evermore have been inseparable best friends since childhood- midnight talks, icecream Fridays, and shared dreams under the stars that hovered over their backyard hideaway. But everything changed when high school hit and Cole became a different version of himself-popular, charming, and within the fading memories of childhood, Amelia realized she developed a huge crush. Enter Chase Evermore-Cole's older brother. Quieter, more observant, and maybe too good at seeing through Amelia's walls. While they're all home from college for summer, he offers to help her get Cole's attention. It seems like the perfect plan. But as long days blur into long nights, Amelia finds herself working through complicated feelings. Now caught between the boy she's always wanted and the one who might actually see her, Amelia must figure out where her heart truly belongs before the summer ends.

He plays to win. She plays to roast him on live TV. Christmas is about to be a full-contact sport. When locker-room reporter Faith Langley asks a star forward one brutally honest question, she doesn't expect to go viral-or to get permanent access to the one man she cannot stand. Gabriel Saint is every headline she swore off: cocky, stupidly hot, and allergic to playing it safe. Forced together for holiday segments, charity events, and a very public bet before the Christmas Classic, Faith and Gabe spend December sniping into microphones, snarking under the mistletoe, and pretending the chemistry crackling between them is just "for the cameras." Then a snowstorm strands them in the arena overnight. Then a hot mic catches Gabe admitting she's the only reporter he cares about. Then one stupid, reckless kiss turns into something neither of them can laugh off. With Faith's dream promotion on the line, Gabriel's season under a microscope, and the entire league watching, keeping their hands off each other might save their careers... but cost them the only thing that's ever felt real. When the lights go up on the Christmas Classic, Gabriel is done hiding how hard he's fallen. One game, one grand gesture, one hat trick of a proposal- And if Faith is brave enough to want both love and the life she's built, this Christmas might just end in sudden-death happily ever after.

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.
