Jordyn Kendra is a talented designer and savvy businesswoman. Spending eighteen hours a day establishing and running a successful business doesn't leave much time for pursuing a relationship, and frankly she hasn't really missed it. But when an invitation arrives that could help her fulfill her career dreams, she has to make a decision. What's harder: going to a gala without a date or finding someone to ask? 

Ben Matthews, head athletic therapist for the wildly popular Clarington Quakes hockey team, tends to stand out in a crowd. When Jordyn doesn't recognize him, it puts a dent in his ego, but he catches her attention when he jumps in to save a life.

She's a queasy bystander, cowering at the sight of blood, and he's cool, calm, and confident, which she finds irresistible. With a little prodding from her spirited aunt, Jordyn realizes that she and Ben might be the perfect mismatch. 

Before the Whistle - when cool and calm in an emergency is totally hot.

Aurora Bakker can't comprehend how she's become involved in a life threatening car accident. She's lived her life for others, strives to do and be good. So why did a man on his phone swerve into her lane and drive her off the road? Why did her car flip twice and end up totaled in a ditch? And why did it have to happen during midterm season? Aurora, or Rory, Bakker is president of the environmental club at Daxton University. From a young age, she knew that her life would be dedicated to saving the Earth- trying to reverse, or at the very least stop, the destruction caused by humans. In order to do this, she disciplined herself. Her entire life was school, work, and research and she wouldn't let anything get in the way of goals. But then she almost dies, and the reflection of her life is more scary than death itself. Oliver Davies is her saving grace. After a day of exams that kicked his ass, he'd been on his way to the Friday night party to drink his worries away. That is until the car in front of him ran off the road. As a witness to the accident, he called the police to make a report and stopped to aid Aurora. After watching her almost die, literally holding her in his arms as she bled an unhealthy amount, he couldn't shake her. Oliver Davies, hockey superstar, had a crush- which is the last thing he ever wanted. The example of 'love' he received from his parents made him emotionally unavailable and avoidant as hell. So when this beautiful, passionate girl comes into his life in a way that feels like fate, Oliver knows he's in trouble.
