Alexandra „Lexi" Kerrigan führt ein scheinbar geordnetes Leben: Tagsüber studiert sie Sportmanagement, nachmittags unterrichtet sie als Snowboardlehrerin in den atemberaubenden Bergen Kanadas, und abends hilft sie ihrer Mutter im gemütlichen Familien-B&B. Doch dieser Winter bringt mehr als glitzernden Schnee und Touristen - eine Gruppe prominenter Gäste quartiert sich im Chalet ein und bringt unerwartete Turbulenzen in Lexys Alltag.
Besonders eine dieser Personen wirbelt nicht nur ihren Zeitplan durcheinander, sondern auch ihr Herz und ihre Überzeugungen. Als alte Wunden aufbrechen und lang verdrängte Träume wieder an die Oberfläche drängen, steht Lexi vor der Frage: Bleibt sie bei dem Weg, den sie eingeschlagen hat, oder wagt sie es die veränderung in ihrem alltag anzunehmen?
(Es ist die Fortsetzung von Silent Debries of the Soul, kann aber unabhängig davon auch gelesen werden)

Fraser Mountain - Living the snow life
Meet Lexie McGinty. Unfulfilled Graphic Designer at Bostock Bank and according to her best friend Evie 'proper lovely'. Lexie's loves, particularly snowboarding and Labradors - seem to have been filed away in the drawer marked 'Time to get sensible' Navigating through the murk of London life; career, boyfriend, getting a toe (let alone a foot) on the housing ladder is all proving to be slightly underwhelming. So, when the global recession hits hard and redundancy beckons, she's left without a job for the first time in her life. But, as her wise and wonderful (if a little cantankerous) Grandmother would say, every cloud has a silver lining. At least unemployment means boyfriend Henry might get off her back about buying a house. Lexie wishes she had the same pluck as her best friend Evie, who has a million and one ideas about which direction she should go (none of which involve Henry, incidentally.) Then life throws another curveball that sends her on an adventure she never anticipated. The population of Fraser Mountain has just increased by one. When Lexie finds herself far from home in the frigid winter of the Canadian Rockies, she meets a motley crew of ski-bums, handsome ski-patrollers and friendly locals who live the dream, united by a passion for snow sports and mountain life. With no job, no boyfriend and no real plan, can she really fit in and carve out a new life, and find new love, in Fraser, or should she face up to her responsibilities and get back on the grown up bus? _________ Hello! My name is Alex and I wrote this novel based on my experiences when I upped sticks from London to live in a small ski town in Canada a few years ago. I absolutely loved writing this book and I really hope that those who read some or all of it enjoy the story, maybe giggle a few times, and give me some great feedback - thank you!Completa
Sure Thing
[𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄] 𝐑𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐍 𝐉𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐒 30 Months... Almost three years since my accident. My first game playing pro in the NHL and I blew it. Many people have tried to help me but I'm past giving a fuck now. I just want to be left alone to drink my sorrows away. It's clear I'm never going to play pro again, so why do people continue to push me towards getting help? I don't want it. Until I do. All she has to do is whisper, "It's simply a setback. Which means you come back stronger." 𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐁𝐘 𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐄𝐑 30 Months... Almost three years since everything in my life changed. I've loved, I've lost, and yet I still have some light in my life. I've been fighting for so long that I don't know the difference now. I thought my career was over. My fear of men completely debilitates me from doing what I have always dreamed of. Until him. All he has to do is scowl at me and knock my son over. With strengths and weaknesses being put to the test, it will take everything in them not to crumble from the pressure. After all, too much weight and the ice will crack. And if the ice cracks, they will have to question if their love is a sure thing. *This is an interconnected Standalone therefore you don't have to read the first book however characters have already been introduced.

Destined By Fate
Kendall has always lived a quiet life in a small town in Illinois with her family, friends, and boyfriend Jordan. Her life had been mostly happy other than when her best friend moved away when she was 10. It took her years to get over that loss. Then several years later, tragedy struck when her father passed away suddenly and Kendall was forced to move with her mom closer to Chicago where she could find a job to support the two of them. Little does Kendall know that she is in for the surprise of a lifetime. From the book.... As he catches up to me, he grabs my arm swings me around and with one swift movement he ushers me into a nearby empty classroom with the lights off. He cages me in against the wall. 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.

Who Knows?
"Watch it." "Watch it," I mock him in a whisper, feeling brave. Suddenly, he gets up from his stool and stalks towards me. His large frame towering over my sitting form. I swallow the last bit of my pancakes slowly, my eyes wandering up his body until they stop at his face. He seems displeased. Very much so. His hand grabs the part where my head and neck connect and he slowly but firmly tilts my head back, his fingers tangling in my hair. His skin is rough on mine but still oddly comforting. "What did you just say?" He asks, each of his words pronounced slowly and precisely. "I-I-I j-just.. I was j-just joking." I barely choke out. "You were just joking, huh?" "Mhm." I nod, my head subconsciously leaning into his touch my eyes closing on their own accord. His thumb caresses my cheekbone and I never want him to stop. I have never had a male being make me feel this good before. Don't get me wrong I did kiss a few people but it never felt as good as what he is doing right now. "Romy?" "Yes," I breathe out, biting my lip. His thumb is quick in pulling it from between my teeth. "Nevermind." He rushes out, detaching his hand from my face. Hey Guys! I hope you enjoy my story.

You And I
"𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈, 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐲." [MATURE] After finally getting rid of her toxic boyfriend, Bethany Russo is ready to take control of her career in marketing. The only issue is that her favourite word is yes. Never one to disappoint, she often finds herself on the back burner and without her realising, years have passed with no progression. Finally, she gets her break. Tasked with flying to the snowy alps of Switzerland, she knows this could give her the boost she has been waiting for. Plus, it gives her the benefit of avoiding her ex, the one who doesn't seem to understand the word over. What she doesn't expect is for them to send in NHL Coach Quinton Fox. He's burly, gruff and argues with every single idea she proposes. The problem? She can't find it in herself to say no, even when one mistake leads to them having to share a cabin. It's cold, attitudes get frosty and eye contact sparks a fire so hot they will only need each other to keep warm. It's just simply you and I. BOOK THREE IN THE SIMPLE LOVE TRILOGY 1: Hand In Mine 2: Sure Thing *These are all interconnected and you don't have to read the first two however characters and backgrounds have already been explored in the previous books.

Sněhulák na snowboardu
Dostat k Vánocům vytoužený dárek chce každý z nás. Andree se takové přání splní, a tak má možnost jet na hory a absolvovat kurz, aby se konečně mohla naučit na snowboardu. Jenže, její lekce jsou s dětmi, nemluvě o instruktorovi, který jí považuje za naprosto neschopnou... Nebo ne? Z legrace jsme si kdysi řekly se spolužačkou, je obě napíšeme stejnou povídku na jedno téma a vy ji svými hlasy ohodnotíte, která se Vám líbí víc... Vítěze neznáme doteď... ale to nevadí...

Highway to love Part 5 | Nico Schlotterbeck
"It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas" wäre wohl ziemlich sicher ein passender Titel, den man dem Monat Dezember geben könnte. Nun, zumindest, wenn es doch auch sportlich endlich mal wieder genauso gut für Nico laufen würde, wie abseits des Fußballplatzes. Denn privat? Privat könnte Nico momentan wahrscheinlich nicht glücklicher sein. Zumindest, wenn da nicht dieses eine Spiel lauern würde, das Lias und Nicos Plänen, den Dezember ganz ruhig und entspannt anzugehen, einen ordentlichen Strich durch die Rechnung machen wird. Denn der Dezember? Nun, der wird sicherlich alles andere, als idyllisch werden.
