Allie Beaudart is desperate to look desirable.

And there's no better way to do that than to be seen in the arms of Everett Scott, the newly-single and (self-proclaimed) irresistible ice-hockey centre of Elo University. In exchange for some public appearances with Allie to make his ex jealous, Everett teaches her the fundamentals to getting guys - namely one Zach Riley. 

What Everett doesn't realise is that Allie has more than just a pretty face to show for. But that's for him to find out.

With her nose in books and his brawn getting him nowhere on or off the ice, they find themselves drawn together, sharing their baggage and behaving badly. Jake Bryers is no stranger to the pressures of being a professional hockey player. In fact, it's something that he's dealt with consistently for the past fifteen years. Throughout his career, he's experienced it all-the unbelievably electric thrill of winning divisions and conference titles, and even making it to the Stanley cup Finals on more than one occasion. His dream was always to skate the cup at least once, but as he enters the late stage of his long, tumultuous career, he finds himself struggling to perform like he once had as a younger, inspired player. Harper Clark has been proficient at one thing throughout her life-constantly moving forward without really going anywhere. After having moved to the Big Apple to pursue a more exciting life outside of the lonely one she found herself leading in the Midwest, she herself stagnating after getting her degree from Columbia, she finds herself continuing to quietly enjoy her job at the public library, treading water while the undeniable feeling of discontent grows stronger within her. It's nothing short of fate when Jake and Harper happen to cross paths at the library, and though their lives couldn't be any more different, they find themselves inexplicably drawn to one another in a magnetic pull that neither of them can understand. As much as they try to fight what seems to be the universe bringing them together, what one lacks the other has in abundance, and no amount of avoidance keeps them apart.

Book 1 of 3 Lindsey is looking for a fresh start. She's spent the last two years hiding away from everyone, and everything after her best friend and boyfriend betrayed her. Now, she's ready to get out into the world. It's time to learn to trust again, time to take her life back. She gave up on love a long time ago, but when her brother's best friend and team captain come into the picture, will she give love another chance, or will the mistakes of his past send her running for the hills? .................... Chase has been known as the "most eligible playboy in New York" since he stepped out onto the ice five years ago. But, being a playboy isn't as much fun as it used to be. These days, he's finding himself yearning for something more, something deeper. Making that kind of connection is hard when all of the single women surrounding him can't see past the jersey. Chase is on the verge of giving up on his quest for something more when he meets Lindsey, his best friend's little sister. She's everything he's been looking for, but she's off-limits. Will Chase take a chance on love and risk losing his best friend? And what happens when his past comes back to bite him?
