Laney Kensington lives on ice - both literally and emotionally.
A fierce, ambitious figure skater with her eyes locked on the Olympics, she's trained to shut out distractions, swallow pain, and hide behind the name "Laney" so no one gets close enough to discover the real girl: Evangeline Rosalie Kensington.
Preston Hale is everything she hates.
A hockey player. Loud, cocky, too confident for his own good. He lives for chaos, adrenaline, and skating fast enough to outrun everything - including feelings.
When they're forced to share ice time at the same training rink, it's war. Verbal jabs, glares at the Zamboni, and a mutual vow to never mix blades.
But beneath the bruises and banter, something starts to shift.
Because sometimes enemies are just mirrors in sharper light.
And sometimes the people we're supposed to hate... are the ones who understand us best.
This is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romance about falling hard, growing up, chasing the impossible - and learning to love yourself as much as someone else.
No smut. Just longing, figure eights, and fire under frozen skin.

Heroine
She never believed in rescue. But then came the hockey goalie who didn't just see her fire-he stepped into it, willing to burn with her. Book 2- Heroine (Book 1 is 'Figurine' go check it out!!) Tessa "Tess" Navarro learned early that heroes don't come for girls like her. In the city, saving yourself isn't selfish-it's survival. With a father who uses his fists to make a point and two younger siblings looking to her like she's the only shield they've got, Tess doesn't have the luxury of hope. Only grit. Only fire. Only the next fight. She doesn't trust. Doesn't flinch. Doesn't break. Not for anyone. Lucian "Luke" Dawson is Lakehurst's star goalie, the backbone of a team built on loyalty and brotherhood. Hockey is more than a sport-it's his escape, his control, his reason to stay grounded. But when Tess storms into his life-all sharp edges, heavy silences, and bruised knuckles-Luke sees the fracture lines she's desperate to hide. She's built for survival. He's built to protect. But she's not some damsel in distress. And he's not the hero she wants. Still, there's something between them. Something electric. Dangerous. Real. But the past doesn't let go easy. And when the line between protector and protected begins to blur, Tess is forced to decide: can you let someone in without letting everything else fall apart? Because in her world, love is a risk. And being someone's heroine... might cost her everything. "He wasn't scared of my darkness. And for the first time in my life, I wasn't scared of someone else seeing it."

Cruel King | 18+
[18+] COLLEGE ICE HOCKEY ROMANCE *~*~* Conrad Taylor is an asshole - everyone knows that. But when you're the star player of the hockey team, your father is one of the richest men in the country, and you have the looks of a tortured fallen angel, not many people seem to care. He certainly doesn't, not when he's too busy riding around with a visible chip on his shoulder. And boy, are they nice shoulders. *~*~* Sophie Pritchett craves normalcy after a lifetime of self-imposed isolation. With her dad's support and her therapist's gentle encouragement, she finally feels ready to step out into the world - or at least into a shared off-campus apartment with a few strangers. Tentatively, of course. Totally doable, right? Only it's not that easy. The girls aren't for the faint-hearted, and that's exactly what Sophie is. Her struggles with personal boundaries and social settings make it more than obvious that she's weird - and that's not including her strange obsession. When the hockey team starts volunteering at the hospital where Sophie teaches art therapy, she suddenly has the perfect excuse to feed that obsession - one that just happens to have Conrad Taylor written all over it. But when an unlikely friendship begins to form between Sophie, Conrad, and Casey - a witty little boy who's been dealt an unfair hand in life - Sophie learns there's a lot more hidden beneath the rude, sarcastic, and cold exterior of Conrad. Maybe he's just a broken little boy with a heart that feels too much. *~*~* Grumpy/Sunshine - Bad boy/Good girl - hates everyone except her Romance with a Brooke Bennett spin on it😜 Book 2 in the Campus Kings Series, but can be read as a STAND-ALONE.

One Of A Kind
"Let me convince you that love exists" Benjamin grinned at me. "Love is just some delusion our mind creates to make sure we procreate" I rolled my eyes. "And even if it did exist, wouldn't falling in love with you just hurt me in the end anyway?" "Maybe not" Benjamin shrugged. "If you don't believe in love by graduation, I'll tell everyone that you're the better hockey player" "Really?" I asked and he nodded. "Fine. Just don't get your hopes up too high, Prescott." Sage Preston didn't believe in love, which is surprising, considering her family is filled with true love stories. Benjamin Prescott, the son of her families long time rivals, is adamant to prove her wrong and show her how amazing love is. She's 90% sure that she'll win this bet. The 10% is uncertain because she remembers how hurt she was when Benjamin rejected her in 7th grade. { Book 3 of the Preston series }Complete
