THE PUCKS WE FREEZE Blurb:

I never expected to see Willow Anson again—not after the way she left.

No warning. No goodbye. No explanation.

She was the girl who got under my skin.

The one who kissed me like she meant it… and disappeared like none of it mattered. I’ve spent every day since convincing myself it didn't.

Now she’s back in Rixton, staying at her family’s lodge while her dad recovers from surgery. And thanks to our parents’ surprise wedding, we’re stuck under the same roof.

She’s off-limits. My new stepsister. But the way she looks at me says she remembers everything.

And the tension between us? It’s anything but frozen.

I’ve trained my whole life to handle pressure—on and off the ice. The last thing I need is a distraction in the middle of a season that’s already falling apart.

Games are being thrown. Players are faking injuries. And Willow’s holding on to the photos that could expose everything.

They’re watching. Threatening. Waiting for us to slip.

But I’m not just playing defense anymore.

I’m fighting for the truth. For my team.

And for the girl I never stopped wanting.

THE PLAYERS WE HATE Blurb:

I never should’ve let Wren Perry get close—not with everything her last name cost mine.

She’s the governor’s daughter. Untouchable. Off-limits.

A walking reminder of everything I should hate.

She was a distraction I had no business touching. The kiss we shared? A cheap shot meant to rattle her brother, not leave a mark. But her lips hit harder than I expected, and the memory stuck like a bruise I can’t shake.

I’ve been off my game ever since. Now she’s back in my life, tied to my team in a way I can’t avoid.

I don’t trust her. I shouldn’t want her. But every time she looks at me, I forget why I ever let her go.

Our season’s already hanging by a thread. Stats don’t match the game footage. Players are faking injuries. And Wren’s dropping clues like she wants to help me find the truth without ever saying a word.

They’re waiting for us to fall apart. They think I’ve lost my edge. But I’ve never backed down from a fight.

This time, I’m not just playing for my team.

I’m playing for our season. For the truth.

And for the girl I should’ve hated… but never could.
