The perfect defense against my lying, manipulative ex? Fake date the enforcer for the Riverside U hockey team. It's the least Cade Price can do after I helped him save face when he caught his girlfriend playing tonsil hockey with another guy. Convincing him to be my pretend boyfriend doesn't take much—his cheating ex is already trying to crawl back into his life—and he's desperate to prove he's moved on.

I accidentally hooked up with the captain of the hockey team . . .In my defense, it was before I landed the social media internship—and learned about the strict no fraternization policy. Not that it matters. I'm pretty sure he hates me after I took off and left him sleeping on the beach. I'm forced to work closely with the angry captain and all I can think about is the steamy night we spent together. And how it can't happen again, because if word gets out it could cost us both everything.

Her brother is my teammate and best friend. They're my family. We grew up across the hall, sharing a secret connection I've tried hard to forget. But I never crossed the line—not then, and not when we came to Riverside U—I've kept my distance. Until her dorm floods, and she moves into the hockey house. Now, there's nowhere to hide. Ruby's always around, and my feelings are hitting harder than a body check on the ice.

Being a twenty-seven-year-old virgin on a pro hockey team was messing with my head—and my game. Plenty of women would have gladly helped me out with my little predicament, but it wasn't me they were after—it was fame. To keep things simple, I decided to make Madison a proposal: take my virginity and I'll help the beautiful single mom find her confidence after a bad breakup.

Hooking up with an annoyingly handsome stranger on vacation isn't the best idea, but I could use a little bit of careless fun before my fresh start. We said no last names, no strings. With law school on the line, it's all I can offer. I just don't expect everything to feel so easy—or so right. Too bad I'll never see him again. Little did I know that hockey star Logan Russo is also attending Westfall U. Now I can't escape him… or his sexy silver eyes. He may not be a player… but he's still off-limits.

Ever since my accident, I've felt like damaged goods. I do my best to hide in plain sight until the one guy I want to notice me… doesn't. Westfall U hockey star Evan Hayworth is way out of my league. If I want him to see me as more than just his tutor, I'll need help igniting the spark. Lucky for me, his hockey teammate comes to my rescue and makes me an offer I can't refuse—I help him with science, and he will educate me in the bedroom. A fake relationship with the most unavailable guy on campus seems like the perfect solution. Noah is caring, loyal, and very good at pretending.

I've had my heart crushed more times than I can count. Swearing off men was the best thing I ever did. The second best—taking a job waitressing at The Firken bar off campus. My grumpy boss is nice to everyone… except me. Which shouldn't bother me, but it does. Darren is handsome, mysterious—and even more unavailable than I am. I've gotten over my ghosts, but he's still chasing his. I thought after years of working in close proximity maybe, just maybe, we would finally cross that line. But almost kisses don't count, not even off the clock.

Being injured on the ice doesn't just make me a grumpy goalie, it makes me a frustrated single dad unable to care for my daughter… or myself. Ellie is the perfect candidate—kind, patient, beautiful, and looking for a place to call home after a falling out with her family. It's a win-win until my desire for her nearly makes me lose my mind. My restraint is hanging by a thread, and I'm one sponge bath away from snapping. When I finally do, our chemistry proves explosive.

She is off-limits, not only because she is my hockey team's new assistant physical therapist. She is also the coach's daughter. Getting in between the sheets with her could cost me my career on the ice. So, I'll settle for being in the friend zone if it means I get to be around her. But the more time we spend together, the more the lines we've drawn begin to blur. Especially when Patty asks me to be her date to her cousin's wedding. One minute, we're dancing, and the next, she's in my arms, asking me for one night.

I've had a crush on my best friend for as long as I can remember. He's a hockey winger who has quite a reputation with the puck bunnies, and I'm a nerdy girl trying to survive my biochemistry degree as a single mom. If science has taught me anything, it's that facts don't lie. The truth is that Ryse and I are from two completely different worlds. He's headed for the pros, and I hypothesize I'll be left behind…again.
