Rosie Moving to New York was my fresh start, a chance to get away from my disaster of a hometown, and maybe learn how to breathe on my own. Romance? Not on the itinerary. So when I meet a charming, overly confident guy at a bar with golden-blond hair and too many dimples than should be legal, and way too much flirt - I don't expect to see him again. Then I do... on the ice, the very next night. Dylan I've met plenty of girls in bars. Most of them know who I am, Rosie didn't. And maybe that's why I couldn't stop thinking about her. She was introverted and blunt and completely unimpressed with my attempt at a pick up line, which was honestly kind of refreshing. Seeing her in the stands at my game felt like fate. Running into her again afterward? Game on. A sweet, slow-burn hockey rom-com about unlikely connections, quiet confidence, and falling for someone who sees past the spotlight.

I've always known him...my best friend's older brother, Zane. Tall, impossibly handsome, weirdly he has always hid his tattoos from me and untouchable. I shouldn't notice him. I shouldn't want him. But every time we're in the same room, every accidental brush of his hand, every silent glance...I can't help it. When our worlds collide in one tiny apartment, everything I thought I knew about boundaries disappears. And suddenly, I'm learning that some love stories don't need words-they're written in silence. 𝐙𝐚𝐧𝐞'𝐬 𝐏𝐎𝐕... I can't speak, but I feel everything. Watching May has always been like standing too close to sunlight-warm, impossible to ignore, and just out of reach. Now we're forced together in the same apartment, and I can't hide what I feel any longer. Every glance, every touch, every unspoken moment is a risk...but I'd rather risk it than stay silent anymore. Between laughter, arguments, stolen moments, and quiet confessions, living together isn't easy...but it's a lot harder to ignore what's been there all along.

And Basgiath has no idea what it just dragged in.
