Kiyara Bakhtiar is far from a hopeless romantic but that doesn't mean she hasn't spent her free time cozying up to a fine roster of men. No, Kiyara Bakhtiar knows how to have fun. But she has never been in love and she's fiercely protective of her heart. Until Ilyes Almàsy, an injured rising soccer star from the top ranking English league, Manchester Glory FC, spends his summer break in New York City to visit his cousin Sinclair, Kiyara's best friend's boyfriend. 

Kiyara lets Ilyes into her life for the summer, and in turn, Ilyes welcomes her into his. For the first time, Kiyara allows herself to imagine a future with him. But what happens when Ilyes is unable to give her the commitment she needs? Will Ilyes realize that Kiyara is the person for him? Or will their tale end in  the fresh wound of a broken heart?

[actively editing] 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 learning what it might mean for each of them to love again. Jake Bryers is no stranger to the pressures of being a professional hockey player. It's something that he's dealt with consistently for the past fifteen years. Throughout his career, he's experienced it all-the 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 better life outside of the dangerous one she found herself leading in the Midwest, she finds herself stagnating after getting her degree from Columbia. She quietly enjoys 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 as they try to navigate mending each other's wounded hearts.

Charlotte is convinced that Aiden is the key to getting her life back on track. He should hate her as her brother ended his police career, but Aiden can't stay away from her. Throw in a bucket list, phone calls from India and an eccentric therapist - It's a forbidden summer romance that neither of them expected! After surviving a kidnapping, Charlotte Weston can't escape her nightmares. So, she reaches out to Aiden Conner, a former cop. He took the bullet for her and is now battling a long-term injury. Surely, he could relate to her endless nightmares. Maybe, after finding closure, she can move on with her life. However, each encounter with the impossible man stirs up feelings that refused to be tamed. Why does she want him when she should hate him? After all, he is her brother's enemy. She was the last person Aiden expected to show up on his doorstep, but Charlotte isn't who he imagined her to be. His life has turned upside down and she is the only thing that makes sense. It becomes harder and harder to ignore his heart's desire, even if she is off-limits. But what harm is there in one summer fling? It turns out that it would be the fight of his life, which no police work had ever prepared him for.
