1. CONSIDER ME by Becka Mack
SYNOPSIS
Carter Beckett is the NHLβs resident bad boy, top player both on the ice and in the bedroom, and quite possibly the sexiest man to ever grace my field of vision. But worst of all? He knows it. Heβs arrogant, self-centered, and the man doesnβt seem to know what a filter is, let alone how to use one. Heβs had everything served to him on a silver platter, including endless strings of women, and apparently, Iβm up next. His only problem? I have no intention of falling for his shiβum, charm.
I have the solution to all my sexual frustrations in a drawer at home, and itβs far less complicated than Carter Beckett. Sure, he may be pretty, but heβs also a walking, talking reminder for you to wrap it before you tap it.
But then I start letting my guard down, and he starts showing me pieces of himself I had no intention of seeing. The bricks surrounding me may be tumbling down one by one, but Iβm not sold yet, which means for the first time in his life, Carterβs the one begging.
For my time, my trust, for a single chance. For me to just⦠consider him.
2. PLAY WITH ME by Becka Mack
SYNOPSIS
Iβm the star right winger for the Vancouver Vipers, an unstoppable force, fast as lightning. My dream come true, and Iβve worked my whole life to get here. I donβt plan on giving it up, but if I want to keep playing hockey, Iβm going to need all my limbs. To ensure my body parts stay intact, I only need to follow one simple rule. Donβt touch my captainβs little sister.
Seems easy enough. Sheβs snarky and bossy and has a mouth like a sailor. Truthfully, Iβm bordering on the edge of terrified when sheβs around. The problem is Iβve seen too much. Too much of her, inside and out. And now? Now I want more. But sheβs my best friendβs little sister, and nobodyβs ever been as off limits as Jennie Beckett is to me.
Her collection of toys is impressive, but I plan on showing her how a real man can make her vibrate without all the batteries. These hands can handle a hockey stick; surely they can handle her. Cβmon, Jennie. Play with me.

3. UNRAVEL ME by Becka Mack
SYNOPSIS
Golden boy. Notorious serial dater. The NHLβs most eligible bachelor. Thatβs what the headlines say about me, at least. I wish I could say theyβre not accurate, but truthfully? I donβt even know who I am anymore. Between a soul-crushing ex-girlfriend and a never-ending queue of dates gone wrong, one thing has become glaringly obvious: I donβt want to be Adam Lockwood.
So when my dog decides to play matchmaker, taking down a sweet little thing with rose gold waves, brilliant green eyes, and a smile for days, I canβt believe my luck that she doesnβt have a clue who I am. I know I should tell her, but for once in my life someone sees the man behind the goalie mask.
Rosie gives me all of herβher heartache, her laughter, and her son. But me? Iβm holding on a little too tightly to the pieces Iβm scared to give up, the pieces she might not like. One small lie becomes a secret hanging above my head, but what if thereβs another one hiding right around the corner?
Suddenly, my deepest desire becomes my biggest fear. Iβm terrified sheβs going to unravel me.
4. FALL WITH ME by Becka Mack
SYNOPSIS
It was supposed to be a one-night stand. But what if they canβt leave it in the past?
Jaxon Riley is exceptional at three things: starting fights on the ice, picking up women post-game, and going home to fulfill his role as the worldβs best cat dad. Relationships, unfortunately, missed the list.
Lennon Hayes is supposed to be on her honeymoon. Instead, sheβs alone and single, vacationing next door to a surly tattooed man who ran his date off the resort. When a run-in at the bar results in a night of bickering and cocktails, she finds herself tumbling into bed with the enemy next door, then sneaking out before the sun comes up.
Lennonβs plan to start over in a new city is going great, until she starts her new job. The job? The Vancouver Vipersβ new photographer. And the defenseman scowling at her from across the room? The one-night stand she wasnβt supposed to see again. Good thing neither of them are looking for anything seriousβ¦ Right?
Jaxon may not be used to falling, but if heβs going to go, he refuses to go alone. If he falls, he wants Lennon to fall with him.
