Logan Laurent works hard and plays hard.
He is juggling lacrosse, academics, and college applications without his normal ease. This year is somehow different. Usually he soars through the year but he's off his game. Could it have to do with the new girl from Colorado? This school assignment is bringing them closer together and Logan doesn't know what he's going to do when he'll eventually have to let her go.

The Janitor's Closet
Skylar Simmons knows ambition is the only way out. Journalism. College. The future. She doesn't have time for secrets, distractions-or the new guy with the criminal record and too many shadows in his eyes. Hunter Pritchard doesn't want attention. Not from classmates, not from teachers, and especially not from the sharp-tongued girl who sees through him a little too easily. But fate-or maybe just a cruel teacher-pairs them together. And when a school trip puts thousands of miles between them and everything safe, Skylar begins to realize Hunter isn't just running from something. As miles stretch and masks slip, Skylar starts to question everything she thought she knew-about Hunter, about herself, and about the line between right and wrong. Sometimes the path forward isn't straight. Sometimes it's unexpected, winding... and changes everything.

Breaking the ice
Book one in the Westbridge U series Eighteen-year-old Grace Carter has spent her life hiding from the truth of her broken home, enduring the cruelty of an alcoholic father in the small town of Willow Springs, Texas.

Enter Jaxon Reed-the charismatic, cocky captain of Westbridge University's hockey team. At 18, he's already a hockey prodigy, and everyone knows it.

When they're paired together for an English project, neither Grace nor Jaxon is thrilled. Grace sees Jaxon as just another entitled athlete, while Jaxon thinks Grace is too distant to care about. But as they spend more time together, something unexpected happens. Jaxon begins to notice Grace's hidden pain, the way she flinches at loud noises and keeps people at arm's length.

What begins as forced proximity soon becomes something neither of them saw coming-an undeniable connection that neither of them is prepared for. As their secrets unravel, they'll discover that sometimes, the most broken people are the ones who heal each other.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

Venomous Empire (A dark college hockey romance)
October 30DC GOLD - Sticker Coming Soon! Rule #1 of lying low at Kingsmore University: Don't flirt with the hockey captain. Don't make eye contact. And definitely don't get into a fake relationship with him. Honestly, just avoid him entirely. Too bad Aaron Varenko doesn't do subtle. And for the record, I don't do relationships. But the moment our eyes locked that first day on campus, the plot twist started writing itself. I was hoping to be a side character, preferably one who stays out of trouble and off-page. Too late. But, when a certain psycho from my past turns up, Aaron makes me an offer I couldn't refuse: "Let him think you're mine and he won't touch you." Totally logical right?🙄 The problem? He's a little too good at pretending. And I'm a little too good at forgetting it's not real. Now the lines are blurring and the secrets I worked so hard to bury are coming back to life. And Aaron might be the only person who can save me...or completely break me.
