Deal Breaker: It's my job to play the player, and prove that the hockey culture on campus is toxic. My position at the Gazette depends on it. But two problems stand in my way.The way my boss wants me to get the story goes against my morals.And I'm starting to believe the guy who goes by the name Cheddar-a loud, obnoxious guy who gives the people what they want-might be a cloak.The guy beneath the nickname, Rhys Taylor, might actually be quiet, shy and respectful.Unless, of course, he's also playing me... Fake Out I've always been the sidekick, the supporting cast. Until I go on a date with Scotia Storm's hottest center-a guy I've been crazy about for months-and everything changes. Even though the two of us don't seem to make sense and I have no idea what he sees in me, love somehow finds a way.Every touch, every kiss makes me feel important and special, like I could be the main character in his life.I begin to plan a future, until I overhear words that shatter my heart and make me question my leading role. Could everything I've ever believed in be nothing but fake? Hard Burn: He was my brother's best friend - my teenage crush. Until one night-one beautiful mistake-changed it all. He took off to play college ball for Michigan, and my brother and I never set eyes on him again.Now, three years later, I'm in Houston for a romance writing conference. He's at the same hotel for the MLB playoffs. That's when our past catches up with us, and the real games begin.This time, I plan to fix past mistakes and rewrite our ending.All is well until he discovers a secret that sends my plot in a new direction, one where happily ever after just might not exist.

After spending my life in the shadows, all I ever wanted was to feel special, to be seen.So, when the hottest guy on our hockey team decides he wants me, I'm shocked, and thrilled.Until a player from a rival team challenges my boyfriend to a bet-and wins.Oh, did I mention I'm the prize.For one solid month I belong to the enemy.Except it's hard to think of him as the enemy when he showers me with tender touches, soft kisses, and shows me what it's really like to feel special, to be seen.How could I not fall for a guy like that?But, when our thirty days end, and the enemy proves to be the man I've always needed, I'm faced with an unsettling truth-it's possible he's the only one who doesn't believe it.Was I nothing more than a pawn in a game of hate?

As a bookworm in rural Nova Scotia, a girl who always orbited the popular crowd, I craved acceptance.During my freshman year at Scotia Academy, I devised a plan to transform myself.My reinvention, however, leads to a chain of unsettling events, blurring the boundaries between my true self and the façade I've created.When a baby unexpectedly appears outside my dorm room, I'm forced to live with my best friend's brother Kace Andrews-a notorious hockey player who loves all the puck bunnies.Well, all the puck bunnies except for me.But soon enough, he begins to see beyond my disguise, which leads to soft kisses, tender touches and late nights between the sheets.We're on a journey of self-discovery as we play house, but when a reckless mistake catches up with me, bringing up old hurts Kace can't seem to outrun, I question whether our love is enough to help rebuild our shattered trust in a world consumed by betrayal.

I hate everything about him.Everything from his boyish good looks to the flawless fit of his jersey.But you know what I hate the most?That his family, owners of the biggest seafood company in Lunenburg, is trying to run our small, family seafood businessinto the ground.But when fate takes a turn and Liam comes to my rescue, I begin to see another side of him.That's when I soften.Can you say stupid?Yeah, I know, I can too.Because we all know that getting involved with the enemy-even secretly-is not a smart move.But his touch shuts down my brain, and my ability to think with reason.Soon enough I'm consumed by the hockey player who wants me, and me only.Or at least I thought he did.Until he does something that could destroy my family, destroy us, leaving me with the burning question of how I can possibly navigate a path forward and salvage what remains of us.

Dane Taylor: Scotia Storms biggest player.A rule-breaker who is wild, reckless and fun.He's everything I'm not allowed to be-or be around-thanks to an overbearing brother who just happens to be Dane's captain. But when Dane rescues me from a bad situation, I can't help but want him, which leads to a secret relationship that allows me to grow.Then, the worst thing that could ever happen to me, happens. And one bad decision leads to another.I find myself hurting everyone I ever cared about.Maybe I should have listened to my brother-since all I do is make mistakes--and maybe I never should have kept secrets from the player who was never playing at all when it came to loving me.

Tavish Findlay.MMA's ultimate bad boy.A hot Scot covered in more art than the Guggenheim.I don't care how freaking hot he is...Or how much my son adores him after he jumped in to protect him from bullies.Never again will I get involved with a guy who loves the limelight-loves women-no matter how much he throws me off kilter.But then he's suddenly right there...A rock solid man who makes me feel like I'm the most important woman in the world.And when he takes me in his arms...kisses with possession...touches with obsession...Damn you ovaries!Then he picks up the broom. A BROOM, ladies!!!Someone stick a fork in me. I. Am. Done.Honestly, how could I not fall for a tatted up Prince Charming as he sweeps my floor?But if I submit and surrender, will he open his protected heart.Or will he tap out and walk away with mine.Do you think I should find out?

Thanks to an unfortunate sheep incident-please don't ask-I lost my job as a wedding photographer, and said good-riddance to my unsupportive fiancé. Escaping to Scotland with a friend seemed like a great way to avoid the guilt. Who knew I'd end up beneath the hottest soccer player on the planet. Well, staying in the room under his anyway. And temporarily working together at his family's pub-where he's recuperating from an injury. A relationship is not on the menu, despite his talents in the kitchen-and other areas of the house. All it takes is an unfortunate tweezer encounter-again, please don't ask-for things to heat up. Harris is hot and funny, and I soon realize he's as lost as I am. Together, we go on a journey of self-discovery-which mostly requires us to be naked. Things are going great until Harris gets the worst news possible and my ex-fiancé has visions of grandeur. That's when things begin to unravel, and I soon realize that what I thought I wanted wasn't what I wanted anymore, and what I needed was now out of reach. In Scotland, how do they say FML...

I wasn't supposed to fall for my sister's wedding planner.But a hot Scot who always wore a kilt - and wasn't into women?Yeah, that had my name written all over it.Why, you ask?Oh, because I always go for the wrong kind of guy.But then he started acting all flirty, and a late night of menu planning, coupled with an unexpected kilt mishap...let's just say, the lifelong mystery of what a Scot wears beneath his kilt...solved.Hey, why can't a strait-laced financial advisor have a little kilt free-err I mean guilt free-fun?Let me tell you why.Because he was sweet and kind, protective and supportive, and my stupid heart got involved.But then I discovered the hot Scot wasn't at all who I thought he was, and that sometimes, sadly, the bridesmaid can't have her cake and eat it too...

"If you liked Crazy Rich Asians, you're going to LOVE Crazy Apologetic Canadians!"I take one look at the grumpy Brit and know I'm in trouble. Not because he's in Nova Scotia to tear down our beloved amusement park. Or because he wants to build an elite school on the lush property.No, I'm in trouble because Colin Parker is superlicious - despite the stick up his British bum.You see, I'm a free-spirited girl who knows her way around a lobster boat. He's a rule follower who knows his way around a boardroom. Can you say polar opposites?Oh, did I mention his mother is back in England planning his marriage? The sexy Brit with a debutante makes sense, right?You know what doesn't make sense? The two of us between the sheets and a montage of fun activities that finally put a smile on his face. But when the montage ends, and life turns messy and complicated-yet we still manage to find common ground-it leads me to believe we're not so different after all.Until he does the one thing that proves me wrong and I'm forced to make a decision I thought I'd never have to make.

He's a defenseman on the academy's hockey team - a well-known player on and off the ice.It's a reputation he wears proudly...flaunts, even. The only one he has to look out for is himself. No one expects anything else.Thanks to past mistakes, I have a whole lot of responsibilities outside of the academy, and have no choice but to put others in my life first. They count on me, but you know what? I'm lonely.I guess that's why I got all tangled up in the guy whose only focus is on hockey - and fun.What I hadn't meant to do, however, was fall head over heels for the player who only wanted one thing from me. Can you say been there done that?But I think, underneath it all, there's a lot more to him than even he knows and maybe his choices aren't his own. Maybe someone else is pulling the strings.Either way, when past mistakes catch up with me again, the team's biggest player must decide whether to follow the path carved out for him and walk away from me, or shape his own future, and become the man he keeps well hidden.
