After breaking free from her toxic ex-boyfriend, 22-year-old Alana Caddick, or Ally, is eager to take a well-deserved break from work. She intends to retreat to her parents' chalet in Revelstoke BC, where she can unwind, eat Cheetos, watch all her favourite movies and go skiing. However, her best friend arrives in town and convinces her to go out and have fun. One night out can't do any harm. Right? Everything changes when she crosses paths with Lance, a captivating ski patroller. They share drinks, stories, and together ignite a fiery, unforgettable one-night stand.
They go their separate ways, leaving Ally to continue her self-care trip with her friend and her brother who made the trip from Vancouver. She's in a great mood, better than she's been in weeks, and suddenly she ponders if there was more to her one-night stand than she initially thought. Imagine her surprise when she sees Lance standing in her doorway, introduced by her brother as Lawrence Stewert, his best friend from college.
Lawrence Stewert, a 25-year-old hailing from Alberta, is a Medic and a Ski Patroller who thrives on fresh powder. The cold winters and the untouched snow on the hills are what bring him alive on the cold mountain morning. He had plans for a laid-back winter on the ski slopes, enjoying the fresh powder and possibly trying out Heli skiing. Meeting Ally and taking up photography after her shoulder injury were not on his agenda for the winter.
Lance, determined to keep his promise to Ally, trades his skis for a camera, immersing himself in the art of photography to be ready for all the race weekends. Ally thought she was escaping to the mountains to rebuild her life while Lance thought he was here for freedom and fresh powder, but maybe they were here for something else. Tangled in a complex web, the pair hovers on the brink of kindling a fire that neither of them can bear to extinguish.

Icarus
Summary: This story is about an incredible unique autistic girl and her two equally incredible best friends. Will they ever get out of the friend zone? A little taste of the story: Is it a sin to love someone too much? To say I miss her is an understatement. I can't eat. Can't sleep. Can't function. She is constantly on my mind as she dwelled herself deep inside my heart. My heart aches for her. Every time I think of her, I smile but my heart hurts like hell because she lives far away. Too far. Sometimes all I can do is lie in bed and hope to fall asleep before I fall apart. Is it wrong to love someone this deeply at such an early age? I have inappropriate thoughts about her...about us. Not, as we are presently but grown up as adults. I'm jealous of my twin brother because he wants to take her from me. I can't let go of what's making me sad because its also the only thing that makes me happy. Her. I cannot lose her, because if I do, I will lose my best friend, my smile, my heart, my soul mate, my everything. If it is a sin, I don't think I want to be forgiven because I truly believe that God has sent her into my life to give me something to fight for, to show me there is love in this world, to give me hope and to bring me joy. All the proof I need in God is in her. She is a gift from heaven." ⚠️WARNING ⚠️ * language *drugs & alcohol * violence *assault & rape *nudity & sexComplete
Crossed Lines
Antoine's twin sister, Emma, has always known how to fight-on the track, against her illness, and especially when it comes to stubborn hockey players like Randy Mitchell. He's reckless, loud, and everything she can't stand. But when a series of unexpected run-ins forces them into each other's orbit, the line between bickering and something deeper starts to blur. In a world where loyalty runs deep and secrets hit harder than slapshots, falling for your brother's teammate might be the most dangerous move of all. 🔥Based on Too Hot to Handle: Season 2 from the Netflix mobile game.🔥 Note: This is a 10-chapter spinoff of Slapshot🏒❤️-with the spotlight shifted to Emma and Randy. So this is their side of the story. It's a little shorter-but a lot messier and more chaotic, on purpose. The writing reflects the way Emma processes things: emotional, blunt, and sometimes all over the place. That's part of the fun. Antoine and Zoe are still at the centre of it all, and yes, a few familiar faces make surprise cameos along the way! ****Originally published on Wattpad under the username Slowburn69.

His close proximity is making me dizzy and my mind is thinking very dirty thoughts. Wait no. I can't think like that anymore. "Kendall." He says hungrily. "You are mine and only mine. You drive me wild and no one else can have you." He says as he attacks my lips. It feels so amazing I can't help but kiss him back. I run my hands through his beautiful hair and he groans into the kiss. Man I don't want this to ever end. I feel drunk on him. I don't think I can let him go. He stops suddenly to finish his thoughts. "No one can make you feel like this. Or kiss you here...." He says as he kisses down my neck. I moan and he smirks pulling his face impossibly close to mine. "..or touch you." He says as he takes his hand and brushes it lightly down my arm and he snakes it back around my back pulling me even closer if that is possible. He finally stops at my ass which he squeezes delightfully and I hum in response. Warning: Contains graphic sexual content. Read at your own discretion. You will not be warned ahead of time.

NOTE: The story contains mature actions and issues. It tells about the love between two young men. The story is NOT edited, but I have begun with that, so please read the Author's Note CAREFULLY, thank you. How do fire and ice combine together? Meet Travis Henderson, sort of new student, blunt to extreme when he can't keep his tongue on a leash, extravagant, vain and cocky as a cat and afraid of nothing. Well, almost. Although with his looks it's very difficult to walk-by unnoticed, he wants to keep a low profile and prefers to stay alone and the company of his I-pod only. Oh, did we mention he is gay? Proud and loud, he would say. Travis knows no half measures when it comes to feelings; he feels a fire burning inside him and has to let it out. Travis must have the object of his interest no matter what, but fire can really burn and hurt you, even if you are its master. And what happens when you realize who you want is the only man impossible to have? Yes, Travis is like a burning and shining ball of fire. Meet Aleksandr Lebedev, half Russian half American, star of the ice-hockey school team. Being 6′3″ tall with a fierce and dangerously annoyed glare make him one of the most feared guys in school. And he likes to be feared by useless and annoying people, since he doesn't appreciate to be involved in others' business at all. Sasha is like the solid and cold ice on which he skates, and only his family and closest friends have a place in his glacial world and heart. That's all you will ever get from Aleksandr and mind well not to annoy him. There is ice in his veins and nothing else. How will it turn out to bump into a constant magnet for trouble? How fire and ice combine together? Will the cold ice extinguish the fire or will the burning and unpredictable fire melt the ice?Complete
