Book six in the Westbridge U series
Logan Brooks thought he had his life figured out. At 25, he's been drafted to the NHL and has everything he's ever dreamed of-fame, freedom, and a future on the ice. Until the night everything changes with a single knock on his door.
Left with a four-month-old baby girl and a heartbreaking note from the mother he barely knew, Logan is thrust into a world of bottles, diapers, and sleepless nights.
Hockey might've taught him how to take a hit, but nothing could've prepared him for this.
Enter Rylee Carver-23, freshly out of college with a degree in early childhood education and a desperate need for a job and a fresh start. Becoming Luna's live-in nanny is the perfect solution... for both of them. She's nurturing, fierce, and completely off-limits.
But as the days blur into late-night feedings and early-morning laughs, Logan finds himself falling-for the one girl he shouldn't. And Rylee sees through the tough, unserious hockey player to the scared but devoted father underneath.
Love wasn't part of the plan. But sometimes, family finds you in the most unexpected ways.
A tender, slow-burn romance about unexpected fatherhood, healing, and the kind of love that changes everything.

In Pucking Love
Everyone knows the number one rule in the locker room: Don't even look at the coach's daughter. But Maddie Blake has never been great at following rules. After years of living in her dad's shadow, legendary head coach of the NHL's top team, she's finally back in town, older, bolder, and completely over hockey... or so she tells herself. Then she meets Levi Hunter. Captain of the team. League MVP. NHL's golden boy. And the one guy her dad has literally warned every player about. He's cocky, charming, and stupidly gorgeous. And for some reason, he won't stay out of her way, or her thoughts. What starts as innocent flirting turns into stolen glances at practice, late night texts, and a spark that threatens to become something deeper. In a world where the game comes first, falling for him might just be the riskiest play Maddie's ever made. And in hockey, one wrong move can cost you everything. *closed door romance*Complete

But Sasha knows what happens when she lets someone in. Beckett knows he's not going to stop until she does. And with every practice, every stolen glance, and every rule she's tempted to break, the ice between them gets thinner. And thinner. And thinner...
