She swore she'd never skate again, but the ice has a way of pulling you back-especially when the town's hockey star is watching. When Calliope Brooks loses her mother, her life is turned upside down. Forced to leave behind the familiarity of her old world, she moves to the small town of Lakehurst to live with her estranged father, the coach of the local boys' hockey team, the Lakehurst Sirens. Once a promising figure skater, Calliope has sworn off the ice-until a chance encounter with Grayson Maverick, the Sirens' star player and school heartthrob, ignites something she thought she'd lost. As Calliope finds herself drawn back to the rink, she's thrust into the chaotic, competitive world of hockey. Navigating budding friendships, lingering grief, and her growing feelings for Grayson, Calliope discovers that sometimes the only way to move forward is to embrace what makes you whole-on and off the ice. But as she steps into a role no one expected, Calliope must prove she has what it takes to be more than a fragile figurine-and face the pressures of skating with, and against, the boys who dominate the game. #1 icehockey (19th May 2025) #1 hockey (13th April 2025) #1 figureskating (20th April 2025) #1 coachesdaughter (20th April 2025) #2 greif (20th April 2025)

Willow Harrison has spent her entire life trying to be perfect. As the eldest child, she's the reliable one-naturally smart, painfully polite, and a textbook people pleaser. Her straight-A record and color-coded planner aren't just for show; they're armor in a world where failure isn't an option. Because if she wasn't the perfect golden child, who else would she be? Enter Oliver Clarke-sharp-tongued, independently brilliant, and the middle child with a chip on his shoulder and a constant need to prove himself. Overachieving isn't just a goal for him; it's a reflex, something ingrained. He doesn't just want to win-he wants to win louder, faster, and more noticeably than everyone else in the room, always fighting for his place in the spotlight. Because if he wasn't, he wouldn't even be half as good as his older brother. They've been academic rivals since the fifth grade, always neck-and-neck, always at odds. But when a high-stakes competition and looming college applications force them into an uneasy partnership, their flawless records aren't the only things at risk. Because the only thing more dangerous than their rivalry and hatred for each other... is what might happen if they ever stop. What happens when the line between hate and love begins to blur? When hate feels like love?

18+ | 2026 WATTYS SHORTLISTER | First Draft | Not edited. |"You gonna sit there all night?" Luka glances at me, smirking. I glare back. "I was enjoying the last few seconds of peace before having to spend an evening pretending to like you." "That's funny," he says, unbuckling his seatbelt. "Why?" I snap. "Because I was thinking the same thing." | The rules? Easy enough. 1. Pretend to be the perfect couple. 2. Keep it professional. 3. And whatever you do, don't. catch. feelings. Simple, right? Sofia Calloway never planned on going viral for throwing a drink in Luka Mikhaylov's face. But one video, one pissed-off hockey star, and one furious university later... she's suddenly stuck in a fake relationship with the guy she can't stand. He needs to clean up his image before the NHL draft. She needs the free tuition that comes with the deal. All they have to do is smile for the cameras, hold hands at the games, and act like they don't want to strangle each other. Then come the late-night arguments that last too long. The stolen glances that feel too dangerous. The moment where "pretend" starts looking way too real. Because when you break the rules, someone's bound to lose. And this time, it might be both of them.

Everyone knows the number one rule in the locker room: Don't even look at the coach's daughter. But Maddie Blake has never been great at following rules. After years of living in her dad's shadow, legendary head coach of the NHL's top team, she's finally back in town, older, bolder, and completely over hockey... or so she tells herself. Then she meets Levi Hunter. Captain of the team. League MVP. NHL's golden boy. And the one guy her dad has literally warned every player about. He's cocky, charming, and stupidly gorgeous. And for some reason, he won't stay out of her way, or her thoughts. What starts as innocent flirting turns into stolen glances at practice, late night texts, and a spark that threatens to become something deeper. In a world where the game comes first, falling for him might just be the riskiest play Maddie's ever made. And in hockey, one wrong move can cost you everything. *closed door romance*

|STEAMY ROMANCE| 18+ "Oh, how bad I want to corrupt you, ruin you. But you're not ready for that." As much as I want her beneath me, writhing, begging me to stop. There is a time and a place for all that, which now is not the time nor place. A blush forms on her cheeks as she looks away. I put my finger under her chin and gently lift her face. "Look at me, my love. I want to see those beautiful cherry cheeks of yours." I love how responsive she is to me. Seeing her blush and shy away from me is one of my favorite things about her. "Stop, Ansel," she giggled. "You can't just say things like that and expect me to remain unfazed". I find it amusing that she is completely unaware of the power she has over me. God, if we didn't have to leave, I would've shown her what she does to me. "I'm not going to apologize, my love. You make me want to give you the world, yet corrupt that innocent aura you have. Let's go, darling, we are going to be late." I take her hand and guide her to the passenger side of the door, opening it, allowing her to climb into the car. Walking to the drivers' side, I get in making sure she is buckled, before buckling myself. Once I see her buckled, I start the car, putting my hand on her thigh. When Emory Miller attracts Ansel Dubois' attention, things are destined to happen.

Sloane Casey came to college hockey for credits and clinical hours. Nothing more. Nothing complicated. Malachi Dixon doesn't believe in "nothing complicated." He's the team's star player, a seemingly arrogant ass, and a problem everyone else is used to adjusting around. Sloane treats injuries. Not egos. Malachi treats everything like a challenge. Especially her. Until one accident changes the dynamic between them completely. And somewhere between forced proximity and constant arguments...that line between irritation and something worse starts to blur. Now Sloane is inside the system she was only meant to observe. And Malachi has someone in his space who doesn't treat him like he's untouchable. From opposite sides of the same tension, neither of them is prepared for what constant proximity does to control. Arguments become routine. Awareness becomes unavoidable. And distance starts to feel less like a boundary and more like a challenge. In a sport built on impact, nothing stays unaffected for long. Because some forces don't just pull you in. They alter everything around them.
