Austin Aces Hockey Club... where sworn enemies become lovers… on and off the ice. Wyatt Whitney is an asshole of epic proportions, and not just because I slept with him thirteen years ago. I’ve come to Austin for a fresh start after an epically awful breakup. The last thing I want is for my best friend to ask her hockey superstar brother to look out for me. It’s made worse by the fact that she has no idea we hooked up, or that he clearly doesn’t remember me. Whenever we’ve been in the same room, he acts like he has no idea who I am. Guess what my ex said must be true: I’m boring and bad in bed. The brooding brawler is angry and hurt since being traded days after winning the Cup last season. The last thing he wants is to babysit me, and he’s not shy about keeping it a secret. When I need a date for the symphony’s fall fundraising gala, I’m surprised when he sweeps in to rescue me, showing off to all of my coworkers. And he doesn’t even make any snarky comments! Could the Wyatt Whitney I’ve hated all these years actually be a decent human being? Worse—could I actually be falling for him, all over again?

One touch changed one man's life, and doomed another Miller Being on a winning team should feel better than this. But when you barely step onto the ice, feel like a stranger in the city you live in, and only have teammates, not friends, not even the Stanley Cup can make you feel like you belong. So I recklessly ask for a trade. It’s a stupid move career-wise, but the chance to see more ice time and start fresh is pulling me toward the Austin Aces. It’s not until the deal is done that I remember who also plays for Austin… Lathan Silver, the guy who turned my life upside down with one touch. That was years ago, so surely the magnetic pull has lessened. I can’t afford to mess up my new team by falling for my teammate. I might be out in the league, but even that is a stretch on what would be accepted. Austin is my chance to belong, so I’ll stay far away from Lathan Silver. Lathan Being the son of a Senator puts a lot of pressure on me, but my discipline, determination, and dedication help me succeed. As a Silver, there is no room for failure—on and off the ice. I’ve cultivated myself into the perfect son and player, and at twenty-five, my life is flawless. I’m the youngest alternate captain in team history, and my role on the team is solid. I follow my routine, do my meditations, and avoid attachments at all costs. I don’t need any complications. Enter Miller Fahn—the Austin Aces’ newest left winger—the ultimate distraction. With one touch, he turns my world upside down. I can’t let him destroy everything. I’ll remind him we’re not friends but enemies. Austin is my town, and the Aces are my team. This is an MM enemies-to-lovers romance among teammates that includes forced proximity, a touch starved MC, friendship bracelets, cooking as a love language, and a gay awakening. This is part of a shared hockey world and can be read as a standalone.

Three years ago my career imploded when I was blacklisted from the film industry. Now, I'm clawing my way back with a documentary series following a professional hockey team through their season. Everything's going according to plan until my boss demands more scandal, more controversy, more drama. And now I’ve got the kind of story that could save my career… if I’m willing to betray the man at the center of it. Legendary team captain Jack "Viggy" Vignier—a grumpy hockey god with a heart of gold—is playing through a career-threatening injury, risking everything for one last shot at the Stanley Cup. He's exactly the kind of story that could resurrect my career. The problem? Somewhere between analyzing game footage and late-night conversations over the best grilled cheese this side of Texas, I've fallen hard for the brooding captain whose rare smiles make my heart forget how to beat. But with my boss threatening to pull the plug on the show, I have to make a choice. The story or the man. Austin Aces Hockey Club... where enemies become lovers on and off the ice, cameras capture everything, and some stories cut too close to the heart.

Silas Johannsen has one The Stanley Cup. Born into a long line of professional hockey players, Silas, nicknamed Joe-Handsome by the press, doesn’t let anything get between him and his goal of taking the championship. Anything that tries will be pounded into the boards. And women? They’re simply a way to blow off steam, to be used for his own pleasure, then tossed aside. Emily Jacobs has one On-Screen Reporting. Her degree in journalism isn’t worth more than the paper it’s printed on. Still, finding a spot with the local cable sports network gives her a chance to dip her toe into the waters, and maybe find a place in front of the camera. The one place she feels she truly belongs. One mistake, one simple slip of a finger, and Silas and Emily come crashing together. She didn’t mean to take the video, he didn’t mean to push her, but somehow, they fight against each other when they both know they should be united. From enemies to lovers to something else entirely, there is a power play between them, but it may cost one of them – or both – everything they’ve been working toward their entire lives.
