Gracelyn Matthews and Landon Scott were inseparable as kids until he became the star football player everyone wanted, and she became the girl he forgot.
Now in college, Grace dances under stadium lights while Landon owns the field... and pretends she barely exists.
But when a messy almost-relationship with Luca Rivera rich, popular, charming, and absolutely not a good guy starts pulling her into drama she never asked for, Landon suddenly isn't so distant anymore.
Old memories resurface. Old wounds reopen.
And the boy who once picked her flowers becomes the man who can't stand seeing her with someone else.
Grace swears she hates him.
Landon swears he doesn't care.
But hate and love?
They've always danced a little too close.

Who We Were
After losing her mom, Lennon Hayes is shipped to a town she's never seen, to live with a father she barely knows. She plans to keep her head down, finish school, and feel nothing. Especially for boys like Kai Calloway. Six-foot-four, quarterback, every girl's mistake. Arrogant smirk, dangerous eyes. Trouble wrapped in a varsity jacket. And for some reason... he wants her. Kai makes Lennon feel things she's spent months trying to forget-heat, hunger, the kind of pull that starts in her chest and ends low in her stomach. He kisses like he owns her breath. Touches her like he's memorizing every place she falls apart. But Kai has secrets. Ones whispered in the locker room. Ones that involve her name. When a cruel bet comes to light, their fragile almost-something combusts. Lennon's left with the scorch marks-humiliated, heartbroken, and haunted by everything they did in the dark. Kai swears it wasn't supposed to be her. He wasn't supposed to want her. He wasn't supposed to fall. Now the new girl with too much grief and the boy who ruined her are tangled in something neither of them is ready to admit-lust, loyalty, lies... and a night that changes everything. A story about first desire, first betrayal, and the kind of love that scars deep. Some mistakes you recover from. Some haunt you. And some- you never outrun.Complete
The Mistletoe Mistake✓
"We kissed, just for a moment: long enough for our lips to touch, fast enough for me to pull away, whispering in the same breath we shared that it was a mistake and had to stay our secret. Then I left him standing there, my lip gloss still smudged on his lips." Clara Bowman, a meticulous rule-follower and habitual worrier, has always spent Christmas alone. That is, until she met Natalie, her best friend, and discovered a family she never had. Now, she spends the holidays at Natalie's mountain cabin, where she must follow one unbreakable rule: never, ever get involved with Jackson Northe. Jackson is hockey's brightest superstar: the captain of the Edmonton Northern Rush, fans' favourite heartthrob, and Natalie's older brother. Last Christmas, one mistake underneath the mistletoe made Clara a rule breaker. Now, back at the cabin together, avoiding Jackson is nearly impossible. Every glance, every touch, threatens to reignite their spark that could destroy everything. This Christmas, Clara has to decide what she's willing to break: the rules or her heart.Complete
Misconduct
Logan Romano didn't just enter the NHL. He tore through it. Dark. Brooding. Untouchable. With brutal talent and a reputation as cold as the New York winter, Logan dominates both the ice and every room he walks into. He doesn't lose. He doesn't bend. And he certainly doesn't fall in love. Not after the last time. Not until November Levine crashes into his life like a beam of sunlight he never asked for. She's warmth where he's storm clouds. She's soft where he's jagged edges. A walking contradiction to everything Logan swore he needed. When a deal forces the polar opposites under one roof, tensions ignite fast. Teasing turns to feuds. Feuds turn into something dangerously close to desire. And Logan is forced to confront the one promise he's never broken. Because once you step into the light- it's impossible to return. ✩ Grumpy x sunshine • forced proximity • slow burn Will the hockey captain cross that line? ✩ "Nova." I whisper, my voice low and hoarse against her neck. "Stop it." "Stop what." She whimpers back innocently as her thighs tighten around my hips. My teeth nip at the skin on her jaw in warning. "Either stop teasing, or put me out of my fucking misery." November pulls her head back from mine, resting it against the wall, and bats her lashes up at me. "Say please."

The Bet (Book 1 in The Deception Series)

The day the bet was made.Complete
Shattered
She ran away from home with nothing but a broken heart and a car that barely made it. One fight, one night, one decision...and everything changed. Desperate for somewhere to stay, Avery answered an ad for a room and ended up moving in with Rhett...a tattooed, cold, pro hockey captain who thrives on control, discipline, and dominance both on and off the ice. Commitment isn't in his vocabulary. Neither are second chances. He's chaos in skates and trouble in leather jackets, sharp edges wrapped in muscle and attitude, and he makes it painfully clear that he doesn't want her in his space, in his routine, in his carefully controlled world. They clash from the start. Power against defiance. Fire against gasoline. Too similar. Too stubborn. Too damaged in different ways. She's soft, but not weak. A good girl who knows how to party, dance, and forget the world when the music gets loud enough. He's adrenaline and aggression, fueled by late-night games, bruised knuckles, and a hunger for control that doesn't turn off when the crowd goes home. Closed off. Possessive. Allergic to feelings. Living together becomes a dangerous game of boundaries, tension, and lingering looks that last a second too long. Every shared space feels like a challenge. Every accidental touch feels like a dare. Neither of them are willing to admit that the pull between them burns hotter than any fight on the ice...or that surrendering might be the one thing Rhett fears more than losing. But the past doesn't stay buried forever. Her mother returns to haunt her, reopening old wounds. And just when Avery starts to feel safe...just when it starts to feel real...Rhett does what he does best. He runs. Because falling is easy...but staying is the dangerous part. Warning: May contain profanity and sexual content.Complete
Before the Buzzer (The Henley Boys #1)

I haven't seen him since our high school graduation, long after we stopped being friends. Now I'm transferring to Henley, and working as a student medical assistant for the hockey team. For the first time in years, I'll be around Logan... The boy who broke my heart without ever realizing it was in his hands. ****The Henley Boys is a series of standalones.
