A one-night stand turns into a high-stakes game of survival when a dental hygienist becomes the secret lucky charm of a grumpy goalie. -------------------- One night, fake names, and no strings was supposed to be my escape. Now, I'm the last hope for a pro hockey goalie who thinks I'm some lucky charm capable of flipping his abysmal season. As a Type 1 Diabetic, numbers govern my life: glucose levels, carb counts, and the low balance of my bank account. I moved to San Francisco for a fresh start, not to become the "lucky charm" of a professionally notorious grump. After our steamy, anonymous night, I did the sensible thing: I ran. But the universe flexes a cruel sense of humor. My new job as dental assistant for the San Francisco Bears' pro-hockey team puts me face-to-face-and finger-to-mouth-with the man I can't forget. Connor Schmidt's convinced I'm the cure to his career-worst slump. He's closed-off, stubborn, and way too hot for my professional safety. I need this job to survive. Literally. But with the coach hunting for "distractions" to fire, and Connor refusing to let me go, I'm stuck in a game I can't afford to lose. He's playing for redemption. I'm playing for my life. And the more we lose ourselves in his "luck-with-benefits agreement," the more falling for him is the most reckless thing I've ever done. 18 + for explicit sexual content #1 sports, #1 spicy, #1 sweet, #1 chicklit, #1 contemporaryromance #1 hockeyplayer, #1 maturethemes #36 romance Story is complete.

A Forbidden Culinary School Romance At 22, Amara Scott thought she was done with love. Her ex made sure of that-humiliating her in front of everyone at his homecoming party with his new girlfriend on his arm. So she ran. New city. New life. Culinary school. And three rules to protect what's left of her heart: No distractions. No men. Absolutely no Chef Jake Adams.

Because if anyone finds out what's building between them, it won't just ruin her career. It will destroy his reputation too. Jake sees her talent. Amara sees the danger. One wrong move could cost her everything she's worked for. One more rule broken could ruin them both.

Niharika Rajal had never noticed him-Avinash Kale, the rich, confident boy from her tuition class. He was just... there. Until one sudden, unexpected moment, everything changed. Out of nowhere, he became impossible to ignore, stirring emotions she hadn't known existed and challenging the boundaries she'd carefully built around her life.
