"It was because I fell in love with you and I was scared."
"How can you be scared of falling in love? Especially when I gave you everything I had an all you did was throw it away. You never cared, did you?"
~
The stereotype for the offspring of a hockey legend is that they get everything handed to them. With Madison Gretzky it is quite the opposite. Not only is she the middle daughter of "The Great One" Wayne Gretzky, former captain of the Edmonton Oilers, but she's also carving her own path in her hockey career. With her being a girl it makes everything ten times harder, but they always say you'll find a way to make something happen, right?
Through her ups and downs of fighting through the tears and the heartache Madison meets Connor McDavid who is suffering through his own personal issues. The two don't exactly "click" and it certainly wasn't love at first sight. Although the two argue constantly and often chirp every now and then, the hatred quickly begins to fade.

CLAIMING HUGHES - Quinn Hughes
Book 2 of the Quinn Hughes Series __________________________________ "You chose him. You always choose him." Those words shattered what was left of Eleanor Klein's world. Four years later, the pieces still haven't fit back together - and neither have the Kleins and the Hughes. But life has a funny way of forcing reunions, especially when Quinn Hughes and Matthew Klein both find themselves drafted to the same NHL team: the Vancouver Canucks. Meanwhile, Jack Hughes is busy living the dream (and distracting himself with a new girlfriend), and Luke Hughes... well, he's mostly just along for the ride, armed with snacks and sarcasm. When Eleanor crosses paths with Quinn again, the years disappear - and so does all their carefully built distance. Old feelings crash into new realities, and suddenly, "where the wind takes them" feels a lot more complicated than it sounds. There's chemistry, there's chaos, and there's definitely still heartbreak lingering under the surface. As Eleanor and Quinn figure out if the timing is finally right, Jack and Eleanor awkwardly rebuild the sibling-like bond they once had - because ignoring the past isn't an option anymore. Especially when your brother, and your not-so-secret crush all play for the same team. Love, hockey, and history collide in this funny, messy, and addictive second installment where sometimes the only way forward... is to finally claim what's been yours all along.
Living Proof (NHL)
Kolby Ryan Bair's(Bear), mom left the day after she was born. With nothing but her purse and a Walmart bag full of clothes, she vanished. Kolby's dad, David Bair, had too juggle a new born while being in the NHL. He did it on his own until he met Justin Read. Justin Read was a new player on David's team and well, you could call it love at first sight. No one on their team, the LA Kings, judged their relationship and it took 3 months for them too get hitched. For Kolby, life was good. Ever since she could walk, her dads had her on the ice and by the time she was 6, she was known as the ice queen. She practiced with her dads and their team every time she was allowed to. Hockey came natural to her. Tragedy stuck when Kolby was 10 and it felt like her life would never be the same. It was hard too believe a 10 year old wasn't happy and you could say, depressed. Finally when Kolby was 12 she got back to hockey and kept playing till she was 16, when she got pregnant with her daughter, Lily Shay Bair. Not being able to deal with her daughter's dad, Kolby and her dad moved from LA to Hershey, Pennsylvania. From there, her life takes off. People may not think a girl can play in the NHL but in the end, she's Living Proof. --- Sorry guys, this is a pretty long description but it covers everything that you need too know basically. Hope you enjoy!Complete

Cruel King | 18+ [ON HOLD]
[18+] COLLEGE ICE HOCKEY ROMANCE *~*~* Conrad Taylor is an asshole - everyone knows that. But when you're the star player of the hockey team, your father is one of the richest men in the country, and you have the looks of a tortured fallen angel, not many people seem to care. He certainly doesn't, not when he's too busy riding around with a visible chip on his shoulder. And boy, are they nice shoulders. *~*~* Sophie Pritchett craves normalcy after a lifetime of self-imposed isolation. With her dad's support and her therapist's gentle encouragement, she finally feels ready to step out into the world - or at least into a shared off-campus apartment with a few strangers. Tentatively, of course. Totally doable, right? Only it's not that easy. The girls aren't for the faint-hearted, and that's exactly what Sophie is. Her struggles with personal boundaries and social settings make it more than obvious that she's weird - and that's not including her strange obsession. When the hockey team starts volunteering at the hospital where Sophie teaches art therapy, she suddenly has the perfect excuse to feed that obsession - one that just happens to have Conrad Taylor written all over it. But when an unlikely friendship begins to form between Sophie, Conrad, and Casey - a witty little boy who's been dealt an unfair hand in life - Sophie learns there's a lot more hidden beneath the rude, sarcastic, and cold exterior of Conrad. Maybe he's just a broken little boy with a heart that feels too much. *~*~* Grumpy/Sunshine - Bad boy/Good girl - hates everyone except her Romance with a Brooke Bennett spin on it😜 Book 2 in the Campus Kings Series, but can be read as a STAND-ALONE. Mature 18+ (Language, content, all that good stuff) Enough character development to turn the devil back into an angel. New chapters every Wednesday and Sunday. *Big Fat Smooch* Good to see you again, my lovelies.
