Cara Davis
My dad used to say two things when I was little: "Men are all the same" and "Don't fall in love with an athlete". I believed both, until he rushed into my life. I should save us both the trouble and stay far away from him. But rules were made to be broken, and I was never good at following them anyway.

But after, Cara Davis tracks me down to tell me she's pregnant and she's more surprised than I am when I tell her I'm all in.

Tell Me What To Do
"Is this right?" Aiden whispered, fingers trembling inside of me. "Tell me what to do." And then his teammate walked in. Ψ The first time Aiden Wilder touched me, he asked if he was doing it right. The second time, he begged me to teach him more. The third time, we weren't alone. Aiden is the NHL's #1 draft pick. Nineteen. Six-foot-one of raw talent and a contract worth millions. He's fast on the ice, awkward off it... and a virgin. I was hired to coach him through fame. Help him deal with the media, the fans, the pressure. Not teach him how to take off my clothes with shaking hands. Not guide his mouth between my thighs and whisper praise into his ear. Not fall for the way he moans like he means it. But then his teammate Luke Mitchell walked in-older, cockier, and definitely not as straight as everyone thinks. He saw what we were doing. He didn't walk away. He asked if we needed help. And Aiden? He said yes. Now there's three of us. No rules. No labels. No going back. But somewhere between the lessons, the touches, and the kisses we shouldn't have shared...someone caught feelings.

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."
