The Reed and Hughes kids have never known life without each other. They'd all been intertwined since before they were even born. Kennedy may be a bit more intertwined with Jack than the rest of the kids. There's a certain bond with your first crush you can't quite shake when he's everywhere in your life. Even more so when that bond follows Jack around too.
Jack and Kennedy have had all the chances in the world. Yet, time and time again there was always something in the way. Boyfriends, girlfriends, mixed signals, or simply not being on the same page at the same time fill their past. Now it feels different. Things seem to be falling into place perfectly. Their past missed chances seem to be reworking themselves, rewriting the first one.
OR
Where their entire lives, Kennedy and Jack somehow can't seem to get on the same page at the same time but this summer seems to be setting the stage perfectly.

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.

July Above - J. Hughes
Lennon Miller and Jack Hughes were once inseparable. Being born on the same day, in the same hospital to moms who were best friends would do that to two people. Every memory Lennon had as a child consisted of the brunette boy at her side. He was her soulmate, her other half. That's why it hurt so much when they had a falling out. Jack was a big shot now, being drafted to the Devils made him completely forget about the girl he used to spend every waking moment with. Lennon is blind sided when one day out of the blue she gets a call from the person she was least expecting. After several years of absolutely no contact she never imagined he'd call her up and beg her to save his reputation. He was now the Captain and providing the fan base with the perfect image of himself was absolutely necessary. She hates him and he's trying so desperately to win her back, one fake relationship later and all these feelings are brewing at the surface. How long can she keep such deep rooted feelings under wraps. Soon enough they will all explode and change her life as she knew it. You can only fake it for so long.Complete
Not in the Playbook
Once the golden boy of the New Jersey Devils, he now walks a thin line between expectation and exhaustion. After back-to-back seasons marred by injury, he's not just losing games-he's unraveling. Confidence bleeds between shifts. Joy slips through his fingers like melted ice. He's tasted victory, stood centre ice with a city on his shoulders, felt the roar of an arena chanting his name. But lately, it's the silence that echoes-between games, between goals, after every rehab session. And then-he sees her. Alexa Lilliana Ignacio. Athletic Therapy student. Luke Hughes' best friend. And possibly the most infuriating girl Jack has ever met. She's lightning in a bottle. Brutal honesty wrapped in soft laughter. Clumsy, beautiful, guarded. She doesn't chase stars-she builds her own constellations. Jack? He's barely a blip in her orbit... which might be why she's the only person who's felt real in a long time. She's not here for fame or its casualties. But fate? It doesn't ask for permission. It starts with a stolen glance on the Jumbotron-her face lighting up the screen, stealing the breath from a thousand throats, including his. Then comes a second encounter. Then a third. She sees him-not the name, not the number. Him. And in a world where he's measured by stats and seconds, that means everything. But she's got her own game to win. Her own future to fight for. When she starts pulling away-missing hangouts, dodging texts, hiding behind "busy"-Jack notices. He misses the chaos. Misses her. Because no matter how perfect his life looks from the outside, it's her-sharp-tongued, emotionally guarded, and secretly kind-who makes him feel alive. It starts the way most storms do: quietly. With a glance, a smirk, a shared inside joke. And maybe the best plays of all? Aren't in the playbook.
