Shattered Dreams: Unexpected Roommates

When her heart is crushed just before college, Victoria thinks her world has ended. Little does she know, it's about to be flipped on its axis. Accepted into her dream university, she arrives on campus ready for a fresh start-only to discover she's been assigned to a co-ed dorm with three guys.

These aren't just any guys. They're hockey players, best friends, and at first glance, complete jerks. As Victoria navigates the challenges of her new living situation, she'll learn that first impressions can be deceiving, and that sometimes the most unlikely people can become your greatest allies.

Full of witty banter, unexpected friendships, and a dash of romance, this coming-of-age story explores the ups and downs of college life, the healing power of new beginnings, and the surprising connections that can form when you least expect them.

With her nose in books and his brawn getting him nowhere on or off the ice, they find themselves drawn together, sharing their baggage and behaving badly. Jake Bryers is no stranger to the pressures of being a professional hockey player. In fact, it's something that he's dealt with consistently for the past fifteen years. Throughout his career, he's experienced it all-the unbelievably electric thrill of winning divisions and conference titles, and even making it to the Stanley cup Finals on more than one occasion. His dream was always to skate the cup at least once, but as he enters the late stage of his long, tumultuous career, he finds himself struggling to perform like he once had as a younger, inspired player. Harper Clark has been proficient at one thing throughout her life-constantly moving forward without really going anywhere. After having moved to the Big Apple to pursue a more exciting life outside of the lonely one she found herself leading in the Midwest, she herself stagnating after getting her degree from Columbia, she finds herself continuing to quietly enjoy her job at the public library, treading water while the undeniable feeling of discontent grows stronger within her. It's nothing short of fate when Jake and Harper happen to cross paths at the library, and though their lives couldn't be any more different, they find themselves inexplicably drawn to one another in a magnetic pull that neither of them can understand. As much as they try to fight what seems to be the universe bringing them together, what one lacks the other has in abundance, and no amount of avoidance keeps them apart.

Ryan wasn't expecting to end up with the captain of the hockey team as a roommate, and she certainly didn't expect the initial sexual tension between them to blossom into love. ***** In desperate need of a place to stay, Ryan Winters doesn't see an issue with rooming with the captain of the hockey team, Ethan Russell. After all, she's focused on her studies, getting over an ex, and honestly, not that into athletes. Though the more time she spends getting to know her new roommate, the more it becomes apparent that Ethan is the exact type of guy she could fall for. When lines begin to blur and drama from the past threatens to tear them apart, can the two of them find a way to keep both their friendship-and their relationship-from crumbling to pieces?
