Parker Heyes has spent her whole life proving she belongs on the ice. At nineteen, the spunky brunette from Victoria, British Columbia is already making waves with Team Canada and the Toronto Sceptres in the PWHL. She's talented, loud when she's comfortable, terrible at talking about herself in interviews, and somehow always one bad decision away from chaos. Macklin Celebrini is Canada's golden hockey star - focused, disciplined, and already carrying the weight of the entire hockey world on his shoulders. Off the ice, though? He and Parker are practically the same person: competitive, sarcastic, stubborn, and incapable of backing down from an argument. After both Team Canada squads strike gold, Vegas seems like the perfect place to celebrate. One night out turns into too many drinks, terrible ideas, and a wedding neither of them remembers until they wake up wearing matching rings and trending all over social media. An accidental Vegas marriage is bad enough. An accidental Vegas marriage between two nineteen-year-old hockey stars? Career-ending PR nightmare. With both their agents demanding they "fix this" before the media tears them apart, Parker and Macklin are forced into damage control - fake smiles, shared appearances, and pretending their marriage might actually work long enough to avoid a scandal. The only problem? The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to remember this relationship was supposed to be temporary. number 1 in #friends june 3rd 26 Started: may 11th, 2026 Finished: june 14th, 2026 final word count: 102,957

Sloan Smith has her life planned around one thing - success. Top grades. Endless studying. No distractions. Especially not hockey players. Macklin Celebrini lives in a completely different world, one of early practices, loud locker rooms, and constant pressure to perform. He's focused. Disciplined. And not looking for complications. They're not friends. They're not enemies either. Just two people who keep crossing paths - until staying out of each other's orbit becomes harder than either of them expected. A slow-burn college hockey romance about pressure, timing, and learning to let someone in.

Ivy Reynolds has her life mapped out-college, future career, and a boyfriend she's been with long enough to feel safe. Then Will Smith walks into her world stealing her coffee, flashing a goofy smile, and somehow making her forget the rules she's always followed. He doesn't know she has a boyfriend. She doesn't know he's an NHL player. What starts as accidental encounters and awkward flirting slowly becomes something neither of them expected. But some mistakes are harder to walk away from than others...

Brooks Devereaux knows exactly how people see her. Pretty. Connected. Untouchable. The girl photographed leaving parties in vintage couture. The almost model with the famous last name and the carefully curated life. In New York fashion circles, she is recognizable enough to be watched and overlooked at the same time. What she is not is taken seriously. So when her talent manager suggests a strategic relationship with New York Rangers star Callan Rhys, Brooks agrees before she can overthink it. A few public appearances. A few staged photographs. Nothing real. Callan has spent his entire life surviving scrutiny. The son of a former hockey legend, he grew up inside a house built on silence, pressure, and impossible expectations. Now one of the most feared players in the league, Callan has a reputation for violence on the ice and absolute control everywhere else. He does not trust easily, does not explain himself, and definitely does not blur professional lines for a woman he barely knows. At first, they are nothing more than an arrangement. She needs visibility. He needs the media distraction. Neither of them plans to care. But somewhere between late night flights, quiet moments after games, and the version of themselves they only seem capable of becoming around each other, the performance starts to crack. Because Brooks is beginning to realize Callan sees through every polished version of her. And Callan is discovering that Brooks might be the first person who has ever looked at him without wanting something in return.

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.

When Jade got a new job at Boston college for the men's hockey team, she was planning on getting paid and going home. But what she didn't plan on, was falling in love with the captain. THE Will Smith.

Sugar's addicting. So is she. Graham Davis has two addictions: Hockey-and Gracie Daniels. (Not that he knows it yet.) At St. Brown University, Gracie Daniels is the golden girl. Blonde ponytail, perfect smile, always saying yes. So when she's asked to manage PR for the hockey team, she agrees-hoping to help thaw their notoriously icy captain. But Graham Davis doesn't melt. He's distant, guarded, and doesn't need help from a pink-sweater-wearing perfectionist... until he starts noticing things he shouldn't. Skipped meals. Covered bruises. Flinches too small to be accidental. Gracie is sweet, bright, and hiding more than anyone knows. And Graham can't stop looking.
