Blair Woodford is looking to pivot. Things are changing in her friends lives and she's needing a revamp. Restarting her acting career just might be the change she's been looking for.
Anthony Gallo knows his days in the NHL are numbered. He's getting older, he's getting slower and his knee is close to calling it quits. What comes next is still a big question mark.
When Blair and Anthony are forced to call a truce after one too many disastrous run ins, pictures of their attempt at a peace treaty go viral. Now the world thinks they're the hottest new it couple.
The smart thing to do would be to send out a statement clearing things up. But when Blair and Anthony get together, they don't usually do the smart thing.
Three months. That's the deal. A few fake dates. A kiss for the cameras. And both their careers get the boost they've been looking for.
Should be simple, right?

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. Mature 18+ (Language, content, all that good stuff) Enough character development to turn the devil back into an angel. New chapters every Wednesday and Sunday. *Big Fat Smooch* Good to see you again, my lovelies.

However, after an aberrant experience with his previous photographer, he had no choice but to look for a quick and effective solution. And that solution has a name: Ashton Walker. Two men with very different personalities and a notable age gap, how will love emerge in this story?

Heat On the Ice
He trashes my ice. I ruin his game plan. Lacy Carter runs Lakeside Rink with a clipboard, a perfect three-turn, and a zero-tolerance policy for cocky hockey captains. Enter Beckett "Beck" Rourke-a walking penalty who leaves slush, rule violations, and smug grins in his wake. When the city threatens to cut funding unless they cohost a winter fundraiser, the rink manager and the team's golden boy are forced onto the same sheet of ice. Their truce lasts exactly one practice. Beckett needs help with his edges; Lacy needs his team to stop treating her rink like a demolition derby. Midnight lessons turn into breath-stealing proximity. A fake date for donors becomes a real problem for self-control. One hotel room, one very loud goal horn, and one viral hallway kiss later, the town ships them harder than a Zamboni after overtime. But saving the rink means playing by the rules Lacy swore she'd never break again, and Beck's career can't survive a scandal. When the cameras catch fire and sponsors get skittish, he'll have to decide if he's protecting his image-or the woman who makes every inch of ice feel like home. Enemies on the surface. Partners under pressure. And when they finally stop fighting the pull? Let's just say the boards aren't the only things getting rocked.
