Brynn Lawson knows two things for certain:
Hockey is in her blood.
And Mason Leavitt is completely off-limits.
As a Sports Analytics major at Bellmere University, Brynn spends her days breaking down game film, chasing her dream career, and trying to ignore the one player she should never want. The problem? Mason isn't just Bellmere's star quarterback.
He's her brother's biggest enemy.
The guy she's spent years hearing about.
Until a class project changes everything.
Behind Mason's easy smile and campus-wide reputation is someone Brynn never expected-a man who sees her for more than her last name. What begins as secret glances and late-night texts quickly turns into something neither of them can walk away from.
But hidden relationships don't stay hidden forever.
A swoony college sports romance featuring a protective brother, a golden-boy quarterback, stolen moments, and a love worth risking everything for.

The Aid
*MAJOR EDITS/REWRITE IN PROGRESS* Evie has dealt with her fair share of traumatic events, and she just wants to focus on college and her beloved paintbrushes and bass guitar. Harry is just beginning to deal with the most traumatic events of his life: cancer and the American healthcare system, respectively. The two fellow students meet on a bus when Harry notices a stranger following her, and he walks her home to make sure she's safe. Months later, when she learns about his diagnosis, Evie returns the favor in the only way that makes sense: by marrying him. It's meant to be just on paper. She's merely helping him out financially through her mom's health insurance plan. Neither of them expects this simple favor to come with growing worry that turns into a reluctant friendship, which then spirals completely out of control before either can stop it. But it does, and now they're dealing with it in their own unique ways: Evie ignores it, and Harry ignores her ignoring it. // TW: cancer, strong language, alcohol/underage drinking, mentions of substance abuse, mentions of physical abuse, sexual content
Full Throttle
Camryn "Cam" Lawson has spent her entire life around motocross. Engines. Dirt. Broken bones. Big egos. As the daughter of a legendary rider and the manager of her family's racing team, Cam knows exactly what motocross riders are like-and she's learned one important rule: never fall for one. Then Jace Maddox shows up. Cocky. Reckless. Infuriatingly charming. He's the kind of rider who rides like crashing is just part of the thrill-and the kind of man who's never had to chase a woman in his life. Until Cam. She refuses to be impressed by his talent. Refuses to flirt back. Refuses to give him even a second of her attention. Which only makes him want her more. Now the two of them are stuck traveling the motocross circuit together-late nights at the track, adrenaline-filled races, and a tension that grows impossible to ignore. But getting involved with Jace could destroy everything Cam has worked for. Her team. Her family. Her heart. And Jace Maddox has never been known for playing it safe. When the engines roar and the stakes get higher, Cam is about to learn one dangerous truth: Some riders don't just race the track. They race straight into your heart.Complete

We'll Always Play Forever (The Henley Boys #1.5)
I'm falling for the one person I shouldn't... and it's a problem. --- Dylan James and I have been best friends since dinosaurs roamed Earth. We've done everything together, from kissing on the playground to accidentally becoming each other's firsts... and collecting a very long list of "wow, we're idiots" moments along the way. How has our friendship worked this well, for this long? Years ago, we made a pact: no dating, no feelings, no ruining what we have. And that was fine. Easy, even. Until now. The only problem? I'm starting law school at Henley U. Which means, for the first time in a few years, I'm living less than ten minutes away from my best friend again. And he's... definitely not the same boy I left behind. He's bigger. Stronger. Carries himself with a confidence that makes my stomach flip. And every time he looks at me, I swear I feel it in places I shouldn't. We're in the same college, the same friend group, and sleeping in the same bed almost every night... and honestly, it's getting impossible to pretend he's just my friend. Especially when his arms are constantly wrapped around me like I belong there. This is either going to be the greatest love story of all time... or the biggest disaster of my life. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. And waiting? yeah... not my strong suit. *****The Henley Boys is a set of standalone novels. We'll Always Play Forever is a novella set between books one and two in the series, but you can choose to read in any order!*****Complete
Collateral
Olson Carter doesn't lose. Not in a Manhattan courtroom. Not in his polished glass office forty floors above the city. Not in the life his parents designed for him-where love is measured in accomplishments and weakness is something you learn to bury with a clean suit and a sharper tongue. A year before his little sister Sterling's world shatters, Olson is at the top of his game: the youngest partner in his firm, a criminal defense legend in the making, and the kind of man who can talk anyone into believing his version of the truth. Then he meets Elena Marlowe. A wrongful-conviction attorney with a file thick enough to ruin him, a smile that never promises mercy, and a habit of testing his patience like it's her favorite sport. Elena doesn't care about his name, his money, or the Carter reputation. She cares about the people Olson has learned to overlook-the ones who can't buy their way out of a headline, the ones swallowed by a system built for men like him. She comes from love and struggle, built her life from scarcity into something hard-won, and still sends money home to keep her family afloat. And every time Olson tries to shut her out, she pushes harder-until the cracks in his perfect control start to show. Because this case isn't just about guilt or innocence. It's about what Olson is willing to sacrifice to win. And what he'll do when the one person who sees through him... refuses to look away. Book #2 in the 'Carter' seriesComplete
