Summary:

It’s been two years since I was traded to the Stone Riders Motorcycle Club.

While it saved my life, I was forced to leave behind the only person that ever mattered to me.

Dripping with tattoos, his hair as dark as his soul, the brooding president of the Death Raiders still holds my heart...even if he doesn't seem to know what to do with it.

Yet, Silas has watched me from afar for years, always protecting me from a distance, and creating havoc on my tattered emotions.

To love, and be loved an arm's length away has been torture…until it seemed we might finally free ourselves of this pain.

Unfortunately, whatever we wanted, or could have dreamed of having gets ripped out of reach when old enemies return.

While one wants power, the other....only wants me.

I’ll grieve the dream of a future with Silas because if there’s one thing I know, it's that there is no world in which he would ever share me with another.

If this is to be our end, then I'll say goodbye with ink-stained arms wrapped around me and death itself still holding my heart.

I, Everly Townstead, need to stop fantasizing about my brother’s billionaire best friend.

Should I have accidentally married the notorious charmer in Vegas? No, because he’s trying to buy my family’s company.

Nothing says trust and unity between two businesses like an (accidental) marriage of convenience, right?

3 reasons why I absolutely cannot fall for my fake husband:

1. My brother would be furious
2. I can’t risk my heart getting broken again
3. Cash Stafford doesn’t do serious–ever

Smart girls like me don’t end up with men who flirt with easy smiles.

Men like Cash Stafford don’t ask for forever.

Except I’ll never forget he’s the boy I made a wedding pact with when I was eighteen.

One drunken mistake later – I, Everly Townstead, am completely hitched.

Summary:
He’s the grumpy hockey captain with a bad boy reputation, and now I’ve been assigned as his tutor for the rest of the semester.

ARAN

The pressure is on in my senior year to wow hockey recruiters no matter what. My only outlet was casual dating until the latest fling makes a scene in the middle of my team’s locker room, and gets me in trouble with the coach. And that’s without him even knowing I’m about to flunk an elective.

So I have a Step one, swear off girls for the rest of the season. Step two, do some overtime school work with the help of a tutor.

Except said tutor is about to ruin the whole plan.


MADDIE

Just a few months left of college and I’ll officially start my career as an author. But before that, I’m in desperate need of more income to move away from my fatphobic roommates. So I ramp up my tutoring gig, and start working on a hockey romance idea that I can self-publish quickly. There’s only one I know nothing about hockey—or real life romance.

Insert Aran. Not only I’ll get paid for tutoring him, but maybe he can also teach me about the sport. All I have to do is remember that a real-life romance is off the table.

The overtime tutoring sessions start getting less academic, but can we beat the ticking clock?


Overtime is a dual POV, closed door hockey college romance with mild language, and heat without spice. It’s the second book in the St. Cloud Hockey trilogy, set six years after book one, and can also be read as a standalone.

Summary:

Summer nights can be full of surprises.

As a single, unemployed, and unapologetic twenty-five year old mess, I came to the Hamptons this summer for one reason—to focus on myself and work out my quarter-life crisis. I didn’t come here planning to sneak into a private party and meet a handsome stranger.

I definitely didn’t come here expecting for that stranger to be Preston Rhodes—billionaire and superstar quarterback for the Manhattan Mambas.

And that’s not even the crazy part.

He asked me to be his pretend girlfriend for a week while his family is in town. He needed a date for his sister’s wedding, and I’d never turn down the opportunity to be spoiled by a rich man.

The only thing is, Preston’s not very good at pretending.

Now instead of discovering myself, I’m spending the week discovering what life would be like with him. Instead of focusing on me, I’m focusing on how he looks at me, how he touches me, how he wants me.

But now that neither one of us is faking it, I only hope that we can hold on to what we have through the bright lights and summer nights.

I don’t mean to keep running into him on campus, but it happens. And when he tells me to prove I’m not like the usual women he has in his bed, what comes out of my mouth is asking him to teach me things. Sexual things. He thinks I’m kidding at first, but I’m not. What better way to learn more skills in the bedroom than from the king of the player’s club?

So why, after crashing into her five years later, am I still drawn to her and have too many questions about her carefully guarded son? A son who looks more like me than he should. I need to get these answers without risking my business, my heart, and hers in the process, or I’ll have hell to pay once again.

The apartment technically belonged to the new president.

I was welcome to stay…as long as I understood it meant sharing.

Summary:

Pretty rings can’t always fix broken things.

Unfortunately, that doesn’t stop powerful men from trying. Which is why instead of getting the wedding I’d always dreamed of, I was forced to marry the heir to our rival company and join a family that we’ve hated for generations.

An arranged marriage to make our problem disappear.

Then again, I’m the one that snuck around behind my father’s back and ended up at the center of a scandal that could ruin my family’s reputation.

Now the only person who can protect me is the cold and calculated billionaire, Archer Moore.

The marriage was only supposed to be for show, but Archer can be very convincing. He’s demanded we move in together. That we kiss. That we make it look—and feel—real. He’s a man who is obsessed with getting what he wants—and I’m starting to think what he wants is me.

But the closer we get, and the less we pretend, the more I question if the grudges between our families are too much to overcome for a marriage that was built on pretty rings and broken things.
