in which lila and jack happen to meet again, under different circumstances and notice things neither had noticed in the past

Charlotte Evans came to Vancouver for a fresh start - a new city, new career, and a chance to outrun the shadows of the past that nearly broke her. Her only rule? No hockey players. Not after the accident that took her ex's life, shattered her reputation, and made her the girl her hometown loves to blame. But she unknownlingly moved in across the hall from Quinn Hughes - captain of the Canucks and Canada's most beloved hockey prodigy - her carefully built walls begin to crack. Focused, soft-spoken, and maddeningly kind, Quinn is everything she swore she'd avoid... and everything her heart starts to want. He's at the peak of his career, with no time for distractions. She's spent years building armor she swore no man would ever get through. But as sparks fly, tempers clash, and a magnetic tension simmers just beneath the surface, niether can deny the pull between them. When unspoken attraction turns into something deeper, and a painful secret threatens to resurface, Charlotte and Quinn will have to decide whether some lines are meant to be crossed - or if the past will always be one game they can't win.

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.

Once HYDRA's deadliest assets, Bucky Barnes and Kira Valdavia - Госпожа Смерти, the Lady of Death, are forced back into each other's orbit... two weapons, one past. He learned how to suppress the Winter Soldier but she never got the same fate

Evelyn "Evie" Sinclair - a ghost that can vanish into thin air, untouched by bullets and fire alike. Captured as a child and turned into a living weapon, Evie has spent years running from both her past and the monsters who created her. The Super Soldier Serum running through her veins should have made her unstoppable-but it did more than enhance her strength. It set her body ablaze. HYDRA wanted a perfect soldier, but they got something even more dangerous: a ghost wrapped in fire. Now, Nick Fury brings her into the fold, convinced that she's the missing piece the Avengers need. But trust isn't easily earned, especially from a woman who's spent her life being used. As she fights alongside the Avengers, she finds an unexpected connection with Steve Rogers, a man who knows all too well what it means to wake up in a world that's left you behind. But HYDRA isn't finished with Evie yet. And when old ghosts come calling, the Avengers will discover that the past never truly stays buried-and neither does the fire inside her.
