"The water hears and understands. The ice does not forgive."
They met age five, tiny, stumbling to pull the weight of tiny hockey bags stuffed full with pads and an extra pair of laces, because their parents could never be too careful. Their parents held their carefully taped sticks and met eyes as they climbed the steps leading to the rink. It wasn't a place for magic, this hockey rink; yet Bella would swear, in years to come, that she felt some sign from the ice that they were meant to be best friends. Her parents laughed as she said this; she was cute with her front teeth missing. Not a place for magic, but Winnie certainly thought so, skipping home.
But somewhere along the way, that changed.

Off Ice.
"I'd give it all up for you, Avery," Finn urges. His hands are gripping onto my cheeks and I don't know why I'm letting him get so close to me when I told myself I wouldn't let this happen. All I know is that I could cry at his touch. I miss him so much. "The job, the team, everything," he continues. I swallow the lump in my throat as my eyes dart between his. He seems so desperate and I want to sock myself in the jaw when I'm tempted to wipe the single tear that fell to his cheek. "Because I've seen what it's like to live without you. I know what it's like to see you with someone else, and nothing is worth that. Not even the NHL." The sequel to Ice.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
FROST PLAY
She ran from the ice. But the past always finds a way to catch up. Irina has spent years hiding from the world she was born into : the daughter of a hockey legend, determined to bury both her name and her scars. A new college, a new life and a new name. No one here knows who she really is. Until someone does. When a desperate coach uncovers her secret, Irina is pulled back into the game she swore off, helping a struggling team rise from the ashes. But as old instincts return, so do feelings she thought she'd left behind. Among the players and the ghosts of her past, someone is getting too close, too familiar. The harder Irina fights to stay hidden, the more her walls begin to crack. Because some secrets can't stay buried forever... and neither can the heart. [BOOK ONE IN THE PLAY SERIES]
The Friend Zone
College is a confusing and exciting place. Between classes, sports, and an attempt at a social life outside of class, it's enough stress to make a perfectly sane person lose their mind. But when you're going to college with your best friend, everything seems a little easier. Except when your best friend is an enormously annoying pain in the ass who likes to call you at three in the morning while he's drunk and needs a ride home. Then, it makes a little more difficult and an exciting adventure. Tessa Walters and Taylor McCarthy are best friends, as close as two people can get without ever being involved romantically. For the past four years, they've had each other's backs through every breakup, every championship, every heartbreaking loss that comes with playing the game of hockey. What Tessa doesn't expect their freshman year at Aladine College is Taylor's new girlfriend who seems to hate everything about her. And did I mention she might accidentally fall in love with him along the way?Abgeschlossene Geschichte
Heroine
She never believed in rescue. But then came the hockey goalie who didn't just see her fire-he stepped into it, willing to burn with her. Book 2- Heroine (Book 1 is 'Figurine' go check it out!!) Tessa "Tess" Navarro learned early that heroes don't come for girls like her. In the city, saving yourself isn't selfish-it's survival. With a father who uses his fists to make a point and two younger siblings looking to her like she's the only shield they've got, Tess doesn't have the luxury of hope. Only grit. Only fire. Only the next fight. She doesn't trust. Doesn't flinch. Doesn't break. Not for anyone. Lucian "Luke" Dawson is Lakehurst's star goalie, the backbone of a team built on loyalty and brotherhood. Hockey is more than a sport-it's his escape, his control, his reason to stay grounded. But when Tess storms into his life-all sharp edges, heavy silences, and bruised knuckles-Luke sees the fracture lines she's desperate to hide. She's built for survival. He's built to protect. But she's not some damsel in distress. And he's not the hero she wants. Still, there's something between them. Something electric. Dangerous. Real. But the past doesn't let go easy. And when the line between protector and protected begins to blur, Tess is forced to decide: can you let someone in without letting everything else fall apart? Because in her world, love is a risk. And being someone's heroine... might cost her everything. "He wasn't scared of my darkness. And for the first time in my life, I wasn't scared of someone else seeing it."

"And why the hell not?" "I'm not going to kiss you," My lips graze the shell of her ear. "Until you beg me to." ➳♡➳ Slow burn. Enemies to friends to lovers. Banter like a whiplash.

Tightrope
Becca and Will were once best friends. From immediately clicking at the school bus stop at five-years-old, to bonding over their love for hockey and future ambitions, it was always Becca and Will. Will and Becca. Even as they navigated the toughest parts of their lives, they could always count on each other. Becca had met Will when she had needed him the most, and Becca stood by Will through the times he could barely keep it together with everything going on at home. Nevertheless, as inseparable as they were, Becca one day simply disappeared. She left without explaining or even saying goodbye, and Will never heard from her again. That is, until eleven years later, she showed up at his team's arena, where he was the star player for the Chicago Whispers, claiming she was the new team publicist. Eleven years of silence made Will want nothing to do with her, but still, she pushed and held onto their lingering love for each other, determined to explain everything and get back in his life, even if it means walking the tightrope that hangs between their past life and the present. Still, as time passes and life stories are exchanged, Becca and Will might just realize that they aren't meant to be best friends this time around. Maybe, just maybe, they are meant to be so much more. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED TO @dearrheartbreak NAME Val RAbgeschlossene Geschichte
