The right move
by Liz Tomforde
"A star basketball player discovers his sister's best friend might be the answer to all his problems...and maybe more in this spicy TikTok sensation. Ryan Shay is the newest captain of the Devils, Chicago's NBA team, and the last thing he needed this year was for Indy Ivers, his sister's best friend, to move into his apartment. She's messy, emotional, and way too tempting. But when the team's General Manager vocalizes his blatant disapproval of Ryan's promotion to Captain, citing his lack of work-life balance, Ryan can't think of a better way to convince him otherwise than pretending to date his outgoing roommate. The only problem? Faking it feels far too natural. Indy never imagined she'd be living with her best friend's NBA-superstar brother. Even moreunbelievable? He needs her to act as his loving girlfriend who's suddenly changed him into a friendly and approachable guy. Because, well...he's not. He's controlling of his space and untrusting of others. Falling for her roommate was never part of the deal, especially when Ryan is quick to remind Indy that he doesn't believe in love. But no matter how good his defense is, not even Ryan can resist Indy's charm"

Mile high
by Liz Tomforde
"Annoyance turns to attraction between a flight attendant and a hockey player at ten thousand feet in this spicy TikTok sensation. Chicago hockey isn't complete without Evan Zanders-everyone's favorite player to hate. He knows his role, and he plays it well. In fact, he thoroughly enjoys spending the majority of his game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on his arm. What he doesn't like is the new flight attendant on the team's private plane, who seems utterly unimpressed with him. Stevie Shay's been a flight attendant for years. She thought she'd seen it all, but when her new job lands her onboard working for the most egotistical and self-righteous diva in the NHL, she starts to second guess everything. Including the promise she made to never hook up with an athlete again...no matter how annoyingly tempting he may be. Every away game blurs the lines between Zanders and Stevie a little more. Stevie isn't sure if he's more than the media portrays. And Zanders can't quite figure out if he keeps pushing the flight attendant call button in order to push her buttons or if it's something more"
