Charlotte Evans came to Vancouver for a fresh start - a new city, new career, and a chance to outrun the shadows of the past that nearly broke her. Her only rule? No hockey players. Not after the accident that took her ex's life, shattered her reputation, and made her the girl her hometown loves to blame.
But she unknownlingly moved in across the hall from Quinn Hughes - captain of the Canucks and Canada's most beloved hockey prodigy - her carefully built walls begin to crack. Focused, soft-spoken, and maddeningly kind, Quinn is everything she swore she'd avoid... and everything her heart starts to want.
He's at the peak of his career, with no time for distractions. She's spent years building armor she swore no man would ever get through. But as sparks fly, tempers clash, and a magnetic tension simmers just beneath the surface, niether can deny the pull between them.
When unspoken attraction turns into something deeper, and a painful secret threatens to resurface, Charlotte and Quinn will have to decide whether some lines are meant to be crossed - or if the past will always be one game they can't win.

Blue Line Fever. Quinn Hughes
Quinn Hughes has the world watching him and no one actually seeing him. New captain of the Vancouver Canucks. Golden boy on the surface. But behind the press conferences and perfectly tailored suits is a man unraveling slowly, quietly. The kind of man who smiles like it hurts and doesn't let anyone close enough to see. Until her. She barely remember the night. But he's spent every night since remembering only her. Michigan. A country festival. She walked wearing denim shorts and a don't-fuck-with-me smile, smelling spicy. She didn't give him her name. She barely gave him a second look. But Quinn? He's been building fantasies around her ever since. All-consuming ones. Elizabeth Woods. Pediatric intern. Raised in the shadows of a mother who loved like a loaded gun. She's gentle in a way that feels dangerous, like she's trying to undo years of damage with one soft look and steady hands. She's the kind of woman who tucks blankets around strangers but doesn't flinch when someone screams. She's standing across from him, stunned, breathless, just as fucking shocked. Because this city's too big. Too full. And still, somehow they found each other again. She thought he was a bartender. A finance guy. A pretty face with a sharp jaw and nothing behind the eyes. She had no idea he was him. The name on every screen. The jersey hanging in every bar. And now he's in her orbit again, asking questions with his eyes, tugging at threads she's spent years trying to stitch shut. She carries her past like a diagnosis, incurable. And Quinn sees her. He wants her in a way that has nothing to do with love. This is concussion-level craving. A full-body, penalty-box, scream-into-the-wall obsession. She's the one thing that makes him forget the rules. But the closer he gets, the more the past starts bleeding into the present. She's not just a girl he can't forget. She's the trigger to everything he's spent years burying. "You don't even remember me." "Bullshit. You ruined me."
Not in the Playbook
Once the golden boy of the New Jersey Devils, he now walks a thin line between expectation and exhaustion. After back-to-back seasons marred by injury, he's not just losing games-he's unraveling. Confidence bleeds between shifts. Joy slips through his fingers like melted ice. He's tasted victory, stood centre ice with a city on his shoulders, felt the roar of an arena chanting his name. But lately, it's the silence that echoes-between games, between goals, after every rehab session. And then-he sees her. Alexa Lilliana Ignacio. Athletic Therapy student. Luke Hughes' best friend. And possibly the most infuriating girl Jack has ever met. She's lightning in a bottle. Brutal honesty wrapped in soft laughter. Clumsy, beautiful, guarded. She doesn't chase stars-she builds her own constellations. Jack? He's barely a blip in her orbit... which might be why she's the only person who's felt real in a long time. She's not here for fame or its casualties. But fate? It doesn't ask for permission. It starts with a stolen glance on the Jumbotron-her face lighting up the screen, stealing the breath from a thousand throats, including his. Then comes a second encounter. Then a third. She sees him-not the name, not the number. Him. And in a world where he's measured by stats and seconds, that means everything. But she's got her own game to win. Her own future to fight for. When she starts pulling away-missing hangouts, dodging texts, hiding behind "busy"-Jack notices. He misses the chaos. Misses her. Because no matter how perfect his life looks from the outside, it's her-sharp-tongued, emotionally guarded, and secretly kind-who makes him feel alive. It starts the way most storms do: quietly. With a glance, a smirk, a shared inside joke. And maybe the best plays of all? Aren't in the playbook.

He was the boy she used to hate. She was the girl he never forgot. Years ago, Harper Jones dismissed Quinn Hughes as just another arrogant athlete. He, on the other hand, memorized every scathing word she ever said to him. Now, they're trapped in the same wedding party. The old rivalry instantly reignites with sharp jabs and unresolved tension-until a sudden career-threatening injury sidelines Quinn. Forced to slow down, he finds that Harper is the only person who actually sees him, not just the NHL jersey. As the line between teasing and tenderness blurs, old fears and lingering exes threaten to ruin their second chance before it even begins.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

Quinn Hughes is used to being watched.

From early morning skates to shared breakfasts in the city, their professional boundaries begin to blur into something deeply personal. Quinn has spent his whole life protecting his game, but Nathalie is the first person to see the man behind the jersey.
