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?

Her broken heart (kotlc SoKeefe) by sizzlemcg

I made Grady her brother because I didn't want her to be living with strangers, him being her brother made the most sense to me.

Burning Ember by CemiJade0607

Haunted by the fear of her ex-husband Gabriel discovering her whereabouts, she encounters Hale, the man who delivers her groceries. Yet, Hale harbors secrets of his own. Amidst the unraveling of his mysterious past, the menace of a masked intruder, and a dark secret hidden within her new home, Ember is forced to confront her fears and heal from her trauma. The question remains: Will Hale be her savior from the nightmares that chase her, or will he ignite the flames of destruction? Certain scenes depicted involve domestic abuse and manipulation.
