"I know the rules. I've always known them. Don't date the players. Don't cause drama. Don't embarrass Dad. I'm Scarlett Rivershon, and being the coach's daughter means I live in a world of unspoken boundaries.
Then I meet Aiden Wentworth.
He's sweet. Thoughtful. The kind of guy who rescues me from a makeup disaster and remembers how I take my coffee. He's also my dad's alternate captain. The one player I absolutely cannot fall for.
But I do.
And now we're sneaking around. Hiding our texts. Stealing moments. Because if my dad finds out? Aiden loses everything. His reputation. His position. Maybe even his career. But the more I'm with him, the more I realize I can't let him go.
Find out in Misconduct in Miami, a forbidden hockey romance featuring a heroine who finds her voice and a hero who risks it all for love."
"He's a professional footballer with the nickname Saucy Shorts and is known for his dedication to the game.
Me? I'm called a butterfly by my own family, flittering from project to project on our historic ancestral estate, abandoning them for something new.
So why do I feel as if Mr Saucy Shorts might be a safe place for me to land once and for all—if I can be brave enough to let him in?
We're opposites. Noah Darby blushes at the nickname TikTok has coined for him. He's quiet. Noah has known what he's wanted to do since he was a little boy, and he's lived his life with one goal—becoming a world-class footballer.
Meanwhile, I, Lady Violet Banfield, am known for my bubbly personality and non-stop talking. However, I'm floundering in the gift shop at my family's estate, held back from pursuing an art career in London out of my own fears and doubts.
But when I talk to Noah, opposites attract—and the chemistry is palpable. But how can I possibly live up to what he already sees in me? Dare I take a chance on this footballer and risk my heart? And if I do, will I find more than a love story as a result?
If you like green-flag MMCs and when he falls first—and hard—with no third act breakup, you'll love this heartwarming romance."
"I had one rule: never get involved with a driver. My career as a sports journalist depended on it. But I never planned on Caleb Collings.
The Formula 1 star is notoriously private and despises the media. He's also the only person who stood up for me when a misogynistic exec tried to tear me down.
To my shock, he offered me an exclusive tour. Then another. Now he's offering me a side of himself no one else gets to see. He's everything I should avoid, but I find myself drawn to his piercing blue eyes and the unexpected kindness behind his guarded walls. Falling for him could get me blacklisted, but walking away feels impossible.
Lights Out is the exhilarating first book in the Love in the Paddock contemporary romance series. If you like high-stakes passion and a forbidden workplace romance, you'll love Aven Ellis's new read."

"Aubrey Paige liebt Regeln.
Trenne Arbeit und Privatleben strikt.
Grünkohl zählt nicht als 'neue Erfahrung.
Verabrede dich niemals – wirklich niemals – mit einem Profisportler.
Für die Social-Media-Expertin aus Chicago sind diese Regeln mehr als nur Leitlinien. Sie sind ihr Lebenskompass. Sorgfältig festgehalten in ihrem gepunkteten Notizbuch, begleiten sie Aubrey durch Karriere, Alltag und Datingleben. Doch was, wenn das Leben sich nicht an Regeln hält? Als Aubrey dem stillen, viel zu attraktiven Eishockey-Captain Beckett Riley begegnet, gerät ihre perfekte Ordnung ins Wanken. Beckett ist alles, was sie laut ihrem Regelwerk meiden sollte, und genau das macht ihn so gefährlich interessant. Zwischen E-Mails, Eishockey und emotionalem Chaos steht plötzlich mehr auf dem Spiel als nur Aubreys Herz: Vielleicht sind Regeln ja doch da, um gebrochen zu werden?
Eine charmante Geschichte voller Herz und Humor. Perfekt für alle, die starke Heldinnen und große Gefühle lieben.
Slow burn, falling first."
"I call him a viper.
Sure, he's gorgeous, a young billionaire, and a power player in the London property scene, but I've known Rafe Hawkes my whole life. The partying playboy is like a snake on the prowl for prey when it comes to women. Looking for that first strike and the ability to hook a woman in with his charm and good looks.
But there's one woman he'll never get his fangs into. And I'm proud to say that's me.
Rafe is like a thorn in my side. Ever present, thanks to our friend circle, and utterly annoying. Whilst Rafe would never date a curvy perfumer, he lives to get under my skin and annoy me because it's practically a sport for him.
Not that I completely mind dishing it back to him, of course. We've fallen into this weird relationship of living to antagonize each other.
I thought I would always be content with that . . . until one night changes everything between us. Everything as I know it has completely turned upside down.
And I'm not sure how I'm going to handle it."
"I had high hopes for big sales at the holiday craft show . . . but I never dreamed my biggest transaction would be an offer to fake date a professional hockey player . . .
Welcome to Miami, where the sun is hot, and the ice is even hotter. Beckham Bailey is known as a partying hockey player, and he's in desperate need of an image overhaul off the ice.
I'm Georgie Goodwin, and I hand-paint Mason Jars for a living. But with December approaching and my funds running low, it seems as if Georgie's Jars might have to go under.
But when Beckham's sister discovers me at a holiday craft show, she sees the perfect opportunity to give her brother a new image by faking a relationship with me, the sunshine girl who loves Christmas. In return, I will get exposure for Georgie's Jars and some cash to keep my dream alive. As we spend time together, I start to see the layers behind Beckham's grumpy exterior and find myself falling for him. But can our fake relationship survive the truth of our feelings?
If you love swoony romance, laugh out loud moments, and characters you can't help but root for, then Miami Ice is the book for you."
"The time I picked up an NBA superstar while looking like a swamp thing in a hair salon . . .
You see, I'm starting a new job on Monday at a sports TV network, and I was treating myself to a way too expensive cut at one of Miami's chicest hair salons in preparation when he walked in.
By he, I mean, a tall, inked, European, and breathtakingly hot NBA superstar named Antoni Nowak. And Antoni happens to be interested in me—despite seeing me in that awful salon lighting, with wet hair, and draped in a smock.
Me. I refuse to believe him at first. Antoni isn't deterred. Rather, he's even more intrigued when I fly my weird flag at full staff.
But when I go viral due to a most humiliating situation, I wonder how long it will be until Antoni realizes this is who I truly am and the novelty of dating me wears off.
Add in a coworker who feels I'm not just unworthy of a man like Antoni, but also an embarrassment to the network, and I suddenly find myself questioning my career, too.
If this were a game of basketball, I'm about to make a pressured shot from the three-point line to win the game. Or will I find confidence in myself to sink the winning shot and keep not only Antoni but my job?"

Jean-Pierre Rochat—known as JP—is done with women. All this Swiss hockey player has ever wanted is to fall in love, but his relationships never end with a happily ever after. If he's going to be stuck in the friend zone, he'll keep things casual for his new endgame.

Can JP and Reese let their guards down to take a chance on love? Or will this simply be a game of playing defense?"
"Chicago event planner Collins Brady knows how to make the magic happen for her clients. In her mind, she adds the sparkle that makes everything shine.
If only she had that same sparkle in her personal life.
While she's good at her job, her true career dreams lie elsewhere. If she could do anything, it would be to become an equestrian riding instructor. That dream, however, is shelved due to practicality. And that's not the only thing Collins has shelved. After ending a relationship with her college sweetheart, Collins has taken her heart out of the game, too. She wonders if that magical kind of love can exist. But maybe it's only a fantasy.
Or is it? All of that changes the night she meets Luca Ballerini, the rookie goalie for the Chicago Buffaloes.

Will love get past them? Or will this goalie make a perfect save of Collins's heart?"

With her confidence shaken and no job on the horizon, she knows she has to find herself again.
Once she arrives, she's shocked to learn hockey player Hunter Riley has been traded to the Chicago Buffaloes.

Since she's followed his career, she knows he's coming off a disastrous season in Houston, and must rediscover his game in Chicago—or face losing his hockey dream.
The timing couldn't be worse for the pair to become involved since they're both at a crossroads but the chemistry between them can't be denied. Taylor worries that their budding relationship won't survive the challenges of rebuilding two broken careers. Can the new versions of themselves fit together? Or tear them apart? Or will love be the bottom line, after all?"

Like, she knows becoming a bestselling author isn't going to happen overnight, so she will need to get a day job now that she has graduated from college.

How could he?
She'd rather stay home with her nose in a book, while he has a reputation as a barhopping ladies' man. So, while she may be hopelessly in love with him, she knows better than to expect that he could ever be anything more than her brother's thoughtful friend who actually listens when she talks.
Or could he?
After Matt comes to Holly's rescue, she wonders if he might have deeper feelings, too. When Matt confirms he sees her as more than his teammate's baby sister, will it put them both on thin ice?"
