Relationships were never on his mind, but now it was the only thing he could think about.
Damien Walker's focus had always been on hockey.
Even when he moved from America to England last year.
Nothing meant more to him than being on ice...
Well, until she showed up.
Evelyn Miller was, in every way, the perfect fit for him.
Except for this small, tiny detail.
She was his best friend's sister.
Evelyn Miller is an upcoming, competitive figure skater.
She had spent her last year training abroad and came back early to surprise her older brother.
Only her attention was more focused on a certain 6 foot hockey player.
*DISCLAIMER*: I am not a hockey player or figure skater, so I am sorry if the storyline or parts of the story don't make much sense or just isn't correct. Some of it will be from online research or from my own brain (e.g. why Evelyn had been away for a year was from my own brain and is probably something that doesn't happen in the figure skating world).

Playing in the Shadows
Amelia Landing a position as lead photographer for the Griffins is a dream come true. Capturing every intense game, every unforgettable moment on the ice-this is everything I've worked for. After everything I've been through, this job is supposed to be my sanctuary, a place where I can keep a safe distance from anyone who might get too close. Besides, with the no-fraternization clause, there's no danger of crossing any lines...or there shouldn't be. But then there's him-the star defenseman, with that easy smile and hopeless romantic heart. He doesn't know my past, and he can't understand why I can't risk letting him in. He's a complication I didn't ask for, a temptation I can't afford. But part of me wonders what it might feel like to believe in someone again...if only I dared. Logan After getting burned once, I told myself I wouldn't go all in again. Love was supposed to come easy to me-the happy-go-lucky defenseman who can make friends with anyone. But the last time I let someone in, it ended with a bruise I'm still healing from. So yeah, I told myself to keep things simple...until she showed up. She's standoffish, always keeping me at arm's length with this hard look that says, "Stay away." And yet, I catch glimpses of something softer, something she's trying so hard to hide. The more she pushes me away, the more I want to know her, to show her she doesn't have to stay guarded forever. Maybe that's a risk worth taking...if only she'd give me the chance.Complete
