Breakaway
by Reilly, Grace
"Cooper. As a pro-bound college athlete with a good-time reputation, I usually have my pick of puck bunnies. But lately, I've been in a dry spell that feels more like a curse, and the stress is affecting my game-the one thing that can't happen if I'm going to make team captain, and eventually the NHL. Enter Penny Ryder. She's my coach's daughter, but the moment she pulls me into that ice rink closet, she's the one thing on my mind besides hockey. She has a sex bucket list, and each item on it confirms we're kindred spirits in the bedroom. If I say yes, I'll be relaxed on the ice again-but if her dad finds out, I'll be forced to say goodbye to being captain and finally earning my own father's approval. Penny. Thanks to the ex from hell, I'm a long way from being ready for a relationship-but it's time to reclaim my agency, one long-sought-after experience in bed at a time. Enter Cooper Callahan. He's my dad's star defenseman; an arrangement with him will mean keeping yet another major secret from my father. But the agreement we strike is simple: secret friends-with-benefits until he makes captain...and I cross off everything on my list, so I can finally move on from the incident that ruined both my life and my figure skating career. Yet the longer our connection goes on, the more we trust each other, and the less I want to say goodbye. I know love leads to heartbreak, but what if it can also clear the ice for a breakaway?"

He wants me to help him pass the writing class we're both stuck taking, but I'm too busy to take on yet another responsibility. But when his teammate--my cheating ex--won't leave me alone, I realize I need to convince him I've moved on... and what better way than by pretending to be with James, who wants nothing to do with a real relationship? Yet with every fake kiss, James pulls me deeper into a place that thrills and terrifies me. Why does he make me feel alive like no one else has? And why don't I want it to end?"

Unravel me
by Becka Mack
"When it comes to dating, Adam Lockwood wouldn't know luck if it hit him in the face. After a failed relationship and a string of dates gone wrong, the thought of being vulnerable with someone is terrifying - most women only see his fame.

Fall with me
by Becka Mack
"It was supposed to be a one-night stand. But what if they can't leave it in the past? Jaxon Riley is exceptional at three things: starting fights on the ice, picking up women post-game, and going home to fulfill his role as the world's best cat dad. Relationships, unfortunately, missed the list. Lennon Hayes is supposed to be on her honeymoon. Instead, she's alone and single, vacationing next door to a surly tattooed man who ran his date off the resort. When a run-in at the bar results in a night of bickering and cocktails, she finds herself tumbling into bed with the enemy next door, then sneaking out before the sun comes up. Lennon's plan to start over in a new city is going great, until she starts her new job. The job? The Vancouver Vipers' new photographer. And the defenseman scowling at her from across the room? The one-night stand she wasn't supposed to see again. Good thing neither of them are looking for anything serious... right? Jaxon may not be used to falling, but if he's going to go, he refuses to go alone. If he falls, he wants Lennon to fall with him."

Hearts on thin ice
by Katie Kennedy
"Nick Sorensen had once been one of the fastest men in hockey-until the devastating plane crash that took the lives of his best friends, leaving him the only survivor. Now he's physically ready to get back on the ice, but his coach is concerned Nick isn't doing as well mentally as he says he is. Case in point: Nick's apartment is completely empty, apart from a single chair and a mattress on the floor. To prove he's fine, really, Nick hires Alyssa Compton, an up-and-coming interior designer, to decorate his space. Alyssa's thrilled at the chance to prove herself to her demanding boss-with job security at last, maybe she can finally put down roots and create a home for herself too. But Nick turns out to be infuriatingly stubborn and impossible to work with, and just when Alyssa decides to throw in the towel on the whole thing, Nick shows up for her in a way she never could have expected. The icy path ahead of these two lost souls may be slippery and cracking, but when it comes to love, sometimes all you need is someone on your team"
