Aria Evans has a plan-and it doesn't include distractions. As a sophomore in college, Aria keeps her world small and focused. Between long shifts at a Manhattan café, late nights perfecting her fashion designs, and chasing the dream she's had since she was a little girl-to build a business just like her late mother-there's no time for parties, chaos... or love. At least, that's what she tells herself. Enter Trey Adams. Junior. Hockey captain. Campus favorite. And everything Aria has spent her life avoiding. When Trey and his friends unexpectedly collide with Aria and her tight-knit circle, her carefully structured world starts to blur at the edges. He's persistent, charming, and far too good at breaking down the walls she's spent years building. And no matter how hard she tries to ignore it, the connection between them is impossible to deny. Trey is used to going after what he wants. And this time... it's her. With her friends urging her to take a chance and her heart pulling her in a direction she never planned, Aria is forced to face a question she's never allowed herself to ask- What if she doesn't have to choose between love and her dreams? In a world of ambition, late nights, and unexpected feelings, Aria might just learn that the biggest risk... is not taking one at all. - Book 1 of the Empire State Love Series

Caden Connelly is hot. Dumb. And possibly cursed. Every girl he dates ends up falling for someone else-usually one of his teammates-and he's sick of being the universe's personal punchline. So this semester, he's got a new plan: fake date someone completely undateable. Someone so immune to hockey charm, the curse won't stand a chance. Enter Raven Alore. She's too smart to fall for a himbo goalie and way too busy trying to win a cutthroat sports media internship, take revenge on her ex, and survive living with her backstabbing roommate. She has exactly zero time for Caden's golden retriever energy or his abs of distraction. But when fake dating him gets her: a viral PR case study a shot at the internship and her ex shaking in his cleats... Well, she's in. With conditions. No feelings. No flirting. No shirtless selfies. (Okay, maybe one shirtless selfie.) But the longer they fake it, the messier it gets-because Caden's actually... not that dumb? And Raven's not that heartless. And this whole thing? Might not be fake at all. By the time the puck drops, someone's gonna catch feelings. Let's just hope it's not cursed.

No one expected the two people who hated each other most to fall in love. After never ending arguments, fights, and unexpected events they slowly fell. They were the type of people to hate each other so much but yet again desire each other. They were so similar but so damn different, at times they would lock into each other's beautiful hazel eyes and remember how much they need each other. How much they truly mean to each other. They would say I hate you but really they can't live with out each other. They always tried avoiding one another and separating but it never worked, they always ended up with each other. Even if they did hate each other. They never expected to slowly fall for each other. ఌ "I hate you" my blood boiled with rage, I felt like punching him or scream at him. My heart beat like a drum. A drop of sweat slowly rolled down his temple. "Say it again" he clenched his jaw and got closer to me. "I fucking hate you. Did you hear me! Did you hear what I said?! I hate you?!" I felt his hand around my throat. He looked into my eyes as I looked into his. "I hate you" I said softly feeling his hand run down my chest. "I despise you" he left walking away leaving me with want and hate.

Eliana James and Nate Clarke burn hot and fast, unable to stay away from each other for long. Ivy Cooper and Luca James turn childhood friendship into something deeper, softer, and impossible to ignore. And Harper Martin and Mason Cooper-who grew up together-carry pieces of every love story before them, wrapped into one. These one-shots revisit stolen moments, unseen scenes, and the love that lives between the pages of their original stories. Some moments are tender. Some are messy. Some are unforgettable. But they all prove one thing: love looks different for everyone-and every version is worth telling.

In a town where the high school football team rules the school, Amelia is just another face in the crowd. Sure, her dad is the football coach but Amelia's idea of "Friday night lights" revolves around studying until lights are out. Trying to impress her father who only knows football and her mother's high expectations, Amelia puts her head down and tries her best to satisfy them. After accidentally ending up at a party one night (without her mother's permission of course), Amelia finds herself thrown into the world of the infuriatingly gorgeous yet arrogant Zack Darrington. Zack was never part of a crowd. He's king of the city: the best running back in the state- if not the entire country. Flirtatious, cocky, and a skilled player in all senses, Amelia is not the type of girl he typically surrounds himself with. Everyone knows Zack Darrington. No one knows Amelia Hayes. Football is his world while she wishes it wasn't a part of hers. At first glance, these two couldn't be more different but deep down, they may be more similar than they think.
