Unmasking Love
2025
Book One of the D.C. Renegades Hockey Club RomCom series! Can two people with guarded hearts find their way to each other—and something real?
NHL backup goalie Aiden Youngren is used to being the reliable second-stringer, bouncing from team to team. Joining the D.C. Renegades is just another stop on the line. He’s not getting attached—why bother when he’ll be gone in a few months?
Luxury real estate agent Harper Daniels is equally focused on her career. After a string of short-lived relationships, she continues dating but goes in with the end already in mind, and never allows a man to interfere with her work. So when team captain Felix Fornier refers her to Aiden, she’s determined to close the deal—even if her new client isn’t ready to commit.
A chance encounter changes everything. After Aiden witnesses Harper’s messy breakup, their worlds collide in unexpected ways. What starts as a tentative friendship blossoms into something deeper, but their personal histories, fears, and uncertain futures threaten to pull them apart.
Within these pages we'll learn if Aiden can find the courage to open his heart and if Harper will realize she’s enough just as she is. Click BUY NOW to start reading this heartfelt and steamy hockey romcom.
_this book contains interpretations of hockey locker room antics and was written by a person who has never played a game of ice hockey in her life. In an effort to respect all readers the author had a men's league hockey player beta read certain scenes and he told his wife she was definitely writing fiction.
But seriously this book contains on and off page infidelity (not by our main characters or any of the good guys), off page cardiac arrest, and open-door intimacy._

Unrivaled Love
2025
MVP left forward Bryson Svoboda has everything; championships, accolades, and a career most athletes dream of. But winning it all doesn’t feel like enough, and the cracks are starting to show. Across the field, women’s soccer star, Jo Hamilton, is feeling the weight of expectation and burnout creeping in. Neither is willing to admit they’re struggling, until they both escape to their families’ shared mountain house .
Forced into close quarters after a decade of silence, old tensions reignite in the form of an all-out prank war. But when one joke goes too far, their rivalry unravels, exposing something raw and unresolved between them.
As their time in the mountains turns from competition to connection, reality intrudes in the form of Bryson’s teammates and the watchful eye of D.C. Renegades Captain, Felix Fornier. With their careers pulling them in different directions, Bryson and Jo have to decide if what they built in the mountains was just a fleeting escape or if they’re ready to commit; to their careers, their teams, and most of all, to each other.
Unrivaled Love is a second-chance, spicy, hockey romcom about commitment; to yourself, your team, and your person.
