Now he’s physically ready to get back on the ice, but his coach is concerned Nick isn’t doing well mentally. Case in point? Nick’s apartment is completely empty. To prove he’s fine, Nick hires Alyssa Compton, an up-and-coming interior designer, to decorate his space.
Alyssa’s thrilled at the chance to prove herself to her demanding boss—and finally create a home for herself too.

The Player’s Club – Bad Boy’s Club, Book 2
Written by Fallon Greer, narrated by Stephen Dexter and Andi Arndt
It was supposed to be a simple assignment: stake out the golden boy hockey player Cole “Mac” Mackenzie as he exited the arena after a Los Angeles Blades game.
Follow him. Get dirt on his personal life—something salacious to please the money-hungry gossip rag I worked for. But I missed the moment Mac left the building. Or so I thought…
What started as a simple assignment turned into something much more—my biggest fantasy I never knew I had.
This wasn’t about the tabloid story anymore. I was addicted to unraveling the mysteries of Mac’s world. But—with my own secret—it was only a matter of time before I got burned.
Breaking Point – Bad Boy’s Club, Book 2
Written by Fallon Greer, narrated by Ava Erickson and Sebastian Grove
Book 2 in the Bad Boys Club series from author Fallon Greer continues the steamy hockey romance trend with a twist.
Grace Kensington has been my secret crush since we were kids.
Though she is definitely all grown up now. Long blonde hair, big blue eyes, and curves that could bring even the toughest hockey player to his knees. She’s the full package, too—smart, funny, and as real as they come.
One might go as far as to say perfect. Except for one tiny detail: Grace is my coach’s daughter.
And she just walked back into my life. Apparently she’s doing an internship for the team. The last thing I should do is get close to her again. So the plan is to keep my distance.
But that plan flies out the window the very first time we run into each other…and I’m naked in the locker room.

When Amber’s fiancé leaves her pregnant without health insurance, she’s prepared to do it all alone—until childbirth causes complications with her heart and she needs minor heart surgery.

Head Over Skates
Written by Gigi Blume, narrated by Lance Greenfield and Willa Jaymes
From USA Today Bestselling Author Gigi Blume comes a new, standalone sports romance featuring a surly hockey star and the figure skater who has it in for him.
My Olympic figure skating dreams got toe-picked, but driving a Zamboni at the Toronto Blizzard Dome has its perks—like not being recognized. Beneath the cloak of anonymity, my words do what my skates used to: they slice with precision—in my late-night hockey blog.
Enter Owen Jablonski, the cocky star player with more notches on his hockey stick than all the pucks in Canada. Yet he singles me out to—get this—come on to me. The gall. But the pen is mightier than the skate blade, so they say. Do I have reasons for slamming Owen’s name against the boards? Yes, I do. And when a funny post about him goes viral, can you blame me for finding Owen’s flustered face a little bit delightful?
But instead of a simple exposé, Owen turns the tables on me and brokers a twisted deal: polish his precious public image in my blog in exchange for his silence on my identity. It’s extortion with a side of sultry glares.
And secret kisses against the wall. I need to body-check my feelings before Owen scores more than just goals.
Lace up your skates and get ready to laugh, cry, and swoon. Head Over Skates is just the ticket for those who love their sports romcoms served with a side of snark, witty banter, and just a hint of mayhem.
The Golden Goal
Written by Annah Conwell, narrated by Kim Churchill and Oliver Clarke
Shaw Daniels is the bane of my existence.
Always has been. Always will be.
When we were kids, he annoyed me to no end by being good at everything. He didn’t have to study or really even try. Meanwhile, I tried too much and still lost to him.
Then when we were teenagers, our rivalry became twisted. He started sabotaging all my relationships. I retaliated by doing the same to him.
Now, we’re adults and we should be able to move on. But when I become a physical therapist for his professional hockey team, it seems as though we can’t let go of our rival tendencies.
Suddenly, our teasing starts to border on flirting. Bets are made and lines are crossed. The kind of lines that once crossed … you can never go back to the way things were before.
This rivals-to-lovers, hockey rom-com has sizzling chemistry readers want, without explicit scenes. This is is the first of four in an interconnected standalone series based around four men in four different sports.

Tensions rise as, no matter what they do, the Beacons can’t pull a W, and a heated argument between Sully and Eric over coaching tactics turns physical—only, not in any way they could have ever imagined.
That kiss changes everything. And suddenly, being able to find the back of the net isn’t Sully and Eric’s only challenge. It’s figuring out who and what they are to each other. And what winning it all might actually mean.

Written by Elle Kennedy, narrated by Corvin King and Erin Mallon
The second book in the steamy, hilarious Campus Diaries series by New York Times bestselling author Elle Kennedy, set in the same world as Off Campus and Briar U.
Diana Dixon has a lot going on this summer. She’s rehearsing for a ballroom dance competition, juggling two jobs, and dealing with an ex-boyfriend who can’t take the hint it’s over. Yet despite all that, she still has plenty of time and energy to tell Shane Lindley to screw off.
Shane just moved into her apartment building and seems dedicated to sleeping his way through her entire cheerleading squad. Sure, he’s a tall, gorgeous hockey player, but he’s messing with her turf. This calls for some ground rules: no parties in her apartment, leave her teammates alone, and – most importantly – leave her alone.
What Diana doesn’t realize is that Shane’s sick of hookups and tired of being on the rebound after his long-term girlfriend called it quits. He wants a relationship. And when his ex comes back into the picture, he pretends he has one to make her jealous and who better to play the girlfriend role than his sassy new neighbor?
Despite Diana’s reluctance to break her rule, a fake relationship is the perfect solution for her own ex issues, and soon she can’t deny something is sizzling between her and Shane. Something hot and completely unexpected.
And it might just be getting a little too real.
