ON GOOD READ SO YOU CAN ADD TO YOUR COUNT Mackenzie "Mac" Weaver has spent almost two years perfecting the art of being low-maintenance-quiet, accommodating, and easy to love. As an international student from Australia studying design at Frostford University, Minnesota, she's built what she thought was a stable life: a solid relationship, a carefully curated apartment, and the promise of a future that won't fall apart like her parents' marriage did. But when that carefully constructed life shatters in a single afternoon, Mac finds herself with nowhere to go and everything to lose. Her student visa depends on staying enrolled, her budget can't handle living alone, and going home isn't an option. Enter Maya Laurent, Mac's fiercely protective best friend, and her older brother Jace. A charming hockey player for the Frostford Wolves with a reputation for being as smooth on the ice as he is off it. What starts as a temporary 'crash on their couch' becomes something more complicated when Mac officially moves into their spare room and finds herself pulled into the loud, chaotic world of college hockey. As Mac learns to take up space instead of making herself smaller, she'll discover that sometimes the people who see you best aren't the ones you bend yourself into shapes for-and that finding your voice might mean letting go of everything you thought you needed to be. A story about healing, finding your strength, and learning that being soft doesn't mean being weak.

Every morning, Serenity shows up to the office before anyone else - including Ezra Langford, her infamously cold, calculating, and annoyingly attractive boss. She brings him coffee, not because he asks, but because she wants to - always with a handwritten quote on the cup, something cheesy, optimistic, and completely not his style. Or so she thinks. Because while Ezra never says thank you, never even cracks a smile... he's kept every single cup lid with her notes. Hidden in the bottom drawer of his desk, they're the only bright spot in his otherwise grayscale life. But when Serenity's warmth starts to get under his skin - and into his heart - he'll have to decide if he's brave enough to step out of hiding and tell her the truth: She's not just his coffee girl. She's the only reason he still believes in good things. »»-------¤-------«« "So, uh... any regrets on the merger yet?" "Only that Chase ordered shrimp from that place on 8th again." I laugh, too hard and too quickly. "You didn't like it?" "It tastes like regret." I grin. "That's what he said about your budgeting spreadsheet." Ezra's mouth twitches. Not a smile, not really. But close. I should say something professional. Something normal. Instead- "Do you really read them?" I ask softly. He looks up. "The quotes," I clarify, nervous now. "Do you actually read them, or... just collect them?" His eyes hold mine. There's no teasing in them. No cold, hard CEO mask. "I read them," he says. »»-------¤-------«« Word Count: 26, 074

After a one-night stand flips a grumpy hockey goalie's bad luck, he pursues his team's new dental assistant to rebound his abysmal season. One night, fake names, and no strings. Just a reckless escape from the numbers that dictate my life. Now, he thinks I'm his lucky charm. Transplanted to San Francisco, I'm free to steer my life's ship. But with Type 1 Diabetes, every day is a new challenge for normalcy, and a year of sleeping on my sister's boyfriend's couch, getting bitten by kids while cleaning their teeth, is not living. One last bite tips me over the edge. I don't want a plan. I want a distraction. Enter the broody, stranger at a hotel fundraiser-the perfect one-night release until morning comes, and I flee in panic. Forgetting him is challenging, but my luck turns when I land a specialist dentist's assistant job. It's for the San Francisco Bears, a pro hockey team, where, unfortunately, my steamy one-night stand is actually the team's notoriously grumpy goalie. He's in the middle of a career-ending slump, and his sexist coach is looking for any reason to fire the "distraction" in the dental office. I need this job to survive. To afford life-saving medicine. Connor needs me to win. He's convinced that our night together broke his losing streak. Now, he's haunting my dental chair, insisting I'm some key to turn his season around. He's stubborn, obsessive, and looks way too good in a jersey. But the Coach and GM are watching. My professionalism is hanging on by a thread. If our secret gets out, my new life will be the next thing to crash and burn. I have to prove that luck has nothing to do with it... before I lose my job, my health, and the one man I was never supposed to see again. 18 + for explicit sexual content #1 sports, #1 spicy Updates every Friday PREVIEW: full story is available on Radish: https://radishfiction.com/stories/31711

-- "You think you're so tough hm?" He says, getting closer to me. Both of our eyes lustful, deep and glued to each other's. "I am" I certify the one standing in front of me, our proximity making me nervous, but I'm refusing to show any signs of it. "You're testing my patience, princess." He admits as his hands lay lazily on my neck, I smirk at his sentence. "You're either leaving this place with a black eye or a hickey" He announces. "You wouldn't dare to kiss me." I bark back, his smirk growing as mine fades away. "Try me, Rora." He states, with the goddamn nickname. ---------- !! - It does contain mentions of sexual references, mature themes and strong verbiage.
