Playing for Keeps (2019)

Kendall Ryan

Others: Positive

I broke the cardinal rule of hockey—don’t touch your teammate’s sister. Especially not when she’s sweet, stunning, and way too good for a guy like me. But after we won the championship—and maybe had a little too much to drink—our flirty banter turned into one unforgettable night. She thinks I don’t remember. She couldn’t be more wrong. I remember everything. The way she tasted. The way she gasped my name. The way she ran from my bed like her life depended on it. Three months later, I still can’t get Elise out of my head. Can’t eat. Can’t sleep. Can’t stop obsessing over the one girl I’m supposed to stay away from. She thinks I’m just another hockey player looking for a good time. But she’s wrong about me. Dead wrong. Because I’m not backing down—not when she’s everything I never knew I needed. Game on, sweetheart. You’re about to find out how relentless a determined hockey player can be.

    I came to L.A. for my fresh start… and then my past showed up. I’m happy. At least that’s what I tell myself. I’m working hard to pursue my dreams. I’m finally out from under the thumb of my adopted parents. I’m happy. But then a 6’4 tattooed hockey star who thinks he’s god shows up at the restaurant where I’m working… And changes everything. He tells me I’m the one. That he’s been searching for me for years… That he’s never going to let me go. The question is… is Ari Lancaster going to break my heart? Or has my Mr. Wrong been the right guy all along…

    Others: Positive

    I just snuck out of pro hockey’s most notorious playboy’s bed last night. I have zero interest in legendary hockey player Alex Waters or his pretty, beat-up face and rock-hard six-pack abs. Having a famous pro athlete for a stepbrother means I’m aware that a lot of these guys are notorious f-boys, therefore all hockey games I attend are under duress. That is until Alex starts talking books to me. Then he becomes more than just a hot body with the face to match. And I discover just how good Alex is with the hockey stick in his pants. I consider our night of orgasmic magic as just that: one night. But Alex starts to call. And text. And email and send extravagant—and quirky—gifts. Suddenly, he's too difficult to ignore, and nearly impossible not to like. The problem? Alex is a total player. And me? I don’t want to be part of the game.

  • The Puck Secret

    Others: Positive

    Hockey is my life. It’s my only goal, my only escape, and everything was going according to plan. All I had to do was focus on the game, keep my head down, then get drafted into the NHL. Starting the year as the Captain of FU should have made that easy, but now my attention is torn between the ice and taunting my rival's little sister, Madeline Peters. My only real solace is the mystery girl inside my phone who refuses to tell me her name. Then one drunken knock on the wrong door brings Madeline into my bedroom. It doesn’t matter that I hate her, that I’ve been warned to stay away from her, now that I know what she tastes like, the Mayor’s daughter is just too hard to resist. I know I can’t afford any distractions, especially not with her brother’s warnings in my ear, but I’ve never been good at following the rules and denying what I want, and what I want is her. But what do I do when it turns out the same girl I can’t let go of is also the temptress who’s been sending me all of her secrets?

    Others: Positive

    Beckett, If you’re reading this, well, you know the last-letter drill. You made it. I didn’t. Get off the guilt train, because I know if there was any chance you could have saved me, you would have. I need one thing from you: get out of the army and get to Telluride. My little sister Ella’s raising the twins alone. She’s too independent and won’t accept help easily, but she has lost our grandmother, our parents, and now me. It’s too much for anyone to endure. It’s not fair. And here’s the kicker: there’s something else you don’t know that’s tearing her family apart. She’s going to need help. So if I’m gone, that means I can’t be there for Ella. I can’t help them through this. But you can. So I’m begging you, as my best friend, go take care of my sister, my family. Please don’t make her go through it alone.

    Others: Positive

    Taking in Kason Fuller as roommate is meant to be a favor; one I regret immediately. The bumbling, virgin football player drives me to the brink of sanity, stealing my food, my sleep, my peace and solitude. My solution? Call a ceasefire. Get him out on dates and out of my hair. Yet as our truce shifts, I realize there’s a depth to this connection unlike any I’ve felt before. It turns out, I don’t mind his presence. I crave it, along with every morsel I learn about him. But falling for the guy from the wrong side of the tracks wasn’t in the cards. And I’m not the only one who thinks so. Now, I’m at a crossroads between the life I thought I’d have, or risking everything to catch him.

    Others: Overwhelmingly positive

    You’d think a billion dollars, a professional hockey team and a six-bedroom mansion on the Promenade would satisfy a guy. You’d be wrong. For seven years Rebecca has brightened my office with her wit and her smile. She manages both my hockey team and my sanity. I don’t know when I started waking in the night, craving her. All I know is that one whiff of her perfume ruins my concentration. And her laugh makes me hard. When Rebecca gets hurt, I step in to help. It’s what friends do. But what friends don’t do is rip off each others’ clothes for a single, wild night together. Now she’s avoiding me. She says we’re too different, and it can never happen again. So why can’t we keep our hands off each other?

this one is a Brother's Best Friend romance so I believe her brother is a hockey player as well so she's like known the guy for a while and then they end up hooking up and can't tell her brother so if you do like a good brother's best friend romance I believe it was pretty short like the series does not have that long of books I want to say it was less than 300 Pages definitely a fun time
