"One month with my son's new nanny. What could possibly go wrong?
Ally Sullivan is off-limits. She's my son's nanny. She's my coach's niece. She's the kind of woman you don't touch, especially when you're trying to hold your life together.
But Ally is more than just a beautiful complication. She's quick-witted, fiercely kind, and the only person who can make my kid belly laugh before breakfast. And somehow, she's made herself at home in our lives like she's always belonged here.
The longer she stays, the harder it gets to remember why I'm supposed to keep my distance. And the more I crave her, the more impossible it becomes to let her go.
This was supposed to be thirty days, no strings, no mess. Just a temporary solution. That was the plan. Only now? She's everything I didn't know I needed.
Problem is—Ally's a runner. At the first sign of trouble, she bolts. What she doesn't know?
I've never lost a chase I was determined to win."
"Fake dating my ex-fiancée's sister? What could possibly go wrong?
Quinn Sullivan is the one I've always wanted but could only have behind closed doors—and she's definitely the last person I should be tangled up with now. She's off limits, untouchable . . . and also happens to be my coach's niece.
After one steamy night and a very bad idea, we're suddenly fake dating. For appearances, we say. Totally under control.
Except nothing about Quinn has ever been under control. Not when she looks at me like that. Not when she kisses me like we've never ended. Not when pretending starts to feel a whole lot like the real thing.
This was supposed to be fake. No strings. No feelings.
But for once, I'm betting it all. Because this fake relationship? It's the realest thing l've ever felt."
"After leaving her cheating husband, Ellie is looking for a fresh start for her and her daughter. But after moving into one of her father's apartments to get back on her feet, her plan goes out the window after a run-in with her neighbor, hockey heartthrob Trevor Adams.
She was supposed to be starting fresh after leaving her ex, taking time to figure out what her heart wanted and what would be best for her daughter. After becoming a mom at the age of twenty-one, and now a single mom at the age of twenty-six, Ellie is ready to stand on her own two feet and figure out life without a man. Although her heart remains intact, her trust is irreparable.
Trevor is everything Ellie thinks she shouldn't want. He's hot, muscular, and has Playboy written all over his face. So obviously he's just another man she can't trust, right?
But when he's attentive with her daughter, helpful when she needs anything, and just so kind all the time, it's hard not to wonder what if.
Slowly their casual hellos and friendly smiles turn into talking for hours and stolen kisses. But can they stay just friends? Or will Trevor crash through the walls Ellie has worked hard to hold up?"
"Cassie Wright
First kiss. First love. First heartbreak.
That's what Max was to me. He took every one of my firsts before leaving me alone and brokenhearted while he went off to live the playboy life of a star hockey player.
Now, six years later, he's asking for my help. With the possibility of a private video sitting in the wrong hands, he needs us to date, well, fake date, to keep his reputation clean.
But can I help him? Even if it means risking my heart a second time?
Max Daniels
First kiss. First love. First heartbreak.
Six years ago, all it took was twenty-four hours before my life had gone from perfect to a complete and total disaster. In one day, I went from having Cassie to watching her in the arms of someone else that very next day. It was the first time I'd ever truly felt alone.
Now, years later, I need help, and she's the only one I can trust. If I can convince her to help me, maybe, just maybe, I can make her believe in more.
I've always had my eye on the puck, but now I want the girl, too."
"Sawyer Daniels had a plan.
She'd teach at the daycare and go to class until she finished her degree. Once a week, she would bartend at the strip club, Atlantis, to earn the money she needed to break free.
She just had to make it until graduation, and then, with any luck she'd be out of this mess.
But one night, she meets Rex Lockwood. The hot and broody man she'd been eyeing one night at work. When one thing leads to another, she ends the night in his lap where lines between work and pleasure begin to blur.
To make matters worse, he's the new university hockey coach for her brother's team. The brother she's currently refusing to speak to.
Rex Lockwood never thought he'd be back in New York City, but here he is, back in the hockey world as the men's hockey coach for his old university. Now that he's back, he's promised himself that he will only do what's best for himself and his daughter, not letting anyone close enough to affect her happiness.
But when he meets a girl with bright blue eyes and a body made for him, he begins questioning his reasons for keeping everyone at a distance.
Can they overcome these obstacles, or will they be driven further apart?"
