Rules of the Game

Just their luck: some of the hottest girls they’ve ever met hate their guts. Or are they hot because of the hate? Maybe a bit of both.

SYNOPSIS

After being dumped on her 21st birthday, Bailey James rebounds right into the arms of her ex’s biggest competition, Chase Carter: Antagonizer, womanizer, and infamous left winger for her college’s rival team.

Following a string of scandals and substandard grades, Chase is on thin ice with his teammates and tyrannical coach. The last thing he needs is to have his focus and loyalty called into question by fraternizing with his team’s #1 competition, but a beautiful stranger who throws herself at him one night is too tempting to pass up... Until she throws up on his shoes.

Caught in the midst of a bitter rivalry that extends far beyond the arena, Chase and Bailey are on opposite sides of the bench. He’s worked his entire life to secure a future in the NHL. She’s tagged along while her brother has done the same. Fraternizing with the enemy is definitely out of the question. But what if the enemy is impossible to resist?

2. SHUTOUT by Avery Keelan

SYNOPSIS

After a tryst with ‘Hades’ in the bathroom of a nightclub on Halloween, I figure I’ll never see the tall, tattooed stranger again. Which is a pity, because our encounter was more than a little mind-blowing. I mean, I still think back on it sometimes and... nevermind.

Then my life goes sideways and I’m forced to move in with my older brother and two of his hockey teammates. I’m less than thrilled at the idea of living with three athletes and their stinky gear, their silly video games, and their tendency to inhale every snack in the house. But when I walk in the front door holding an armload of boxes, I’m faced with another problem entirely.

Hades is one of my new roommates.
