\A Las Vegas Kingsnakes Prequel\
Tumbling headfirst into a famous hockey player’s pool while fleeing the scene of a crime wasn’t exactly how she pictured kicking off the long weekend…
…but that’s exactly how Nic Aluette’s life is going at the moment.
After suffering a broken heart courtesy of her cheating ex-boyfriend, working at a crappy dive bar for pennies, and living at the sketchiest hotel in the universe, she’s desperate for a mini vacation to escape her problems and the sweltering city heat. Now, she’s seconds away from getting busted for crashing at what she thought was a vacant lake house. If she could just manage to convince the tattooed, bearded hottie stomping across his backyard not to turn her over to the authorities…
Hockey star Roman Falanov is at a major crossroads in his career. After a long, frustrating season, he’s days away from becoming the most popular free agent on the market. His plans for a weekend alone to relax and contemplate the biggest decision of his life—where he’s going to play next—are interrupted by the beautiful, smart-mouthed blonde who just crash-landed in his pool. But she might be exactly the kind of distraction he needs right now.
Nic is fresh out of options with nowhere to go, so when Fally invites her to stay with him for a few days, she can’t say no.
Things between them quickly heat up, and Nic suggests a no-strings fling with a ticking clock—one that runs out when the long weekend ends. Fally, who doesn’t do relationships—ever—takes her up on the offer.
But for Nic, there’s just one little problem: she forgot to tell her heart not to fall in love.

The Las Vegas Kingsnakes - Players Club Series, Book #1
Losing it all…
Seven years ago, tragedy stole everything from rising hockey star Ryder O’Bryan. He’s coped with the devastation by shutting down emotionally, and maintaining strict control over everything in his life: his image, his career and the carefully hand-selected women he takes to his bed. He vows the only commitment he’ll make again is to the game, and the only ring he’ll ever wear will be the one given to him when the Las Vegas Kingsnakes win the most coveted trophy in professional hockey.
Hedging his bets…
When straight-laced Zoe Miller shows up at Callahan’s bar, the pretty redhead charms Ryder with her sweet personality and sexy legs. He gives her a ride home and is surprised to learn she has an agenda: a one-night stand with no strings attached.
After the hottest sex of his life, Ryder wants to see her again, but Zoe won’t settle for being just one of his many lovers-she wants more.
Unable to reach a compromise, they go their separate ways. As fate leads them back into each other’s lives once more, Ryder gets a second taste of their explosive chemistry. This time, he isn’t about to let her go so easily.
Zoe’s complicated past prevents her from giving Ryder what he desperately wants. She’s determined to guard her heart against the charming forward with the sexy tattoo sleeves and killer smile.
Going All In...
The inability to break through Zoe’s walls rattles Ryder, and the life he’s fought so hard to control quickly unravels. The pain he’s kept buried begins to surface again, and he’s forced to confront the one thing in his life he’s feared for the past seven years. If he doesn’t take the risk, he might never recover from his heartbreaking past. But, if he can roll the dice just one more time, he might find himself finally getting lucky-in life and in love.

Hello? Wrong number…
What happens when you accidentally text a sexy photo of yourself to your favorite hockey player?
Las Vegas Kingsnakes superfan Hannah Hendrix never planned on her sexy photos ending up in the hands of a complete stranger. But she never planned to walk in on her boyfriend with another woman, either. Or for her mom to get sick. The only bright spots in her life are her upcoming college graduation and her fast-growing video blogging channel, Pretty Paper Planning with Hannah. And of course, her first love-hockey.
Hockey superstar Brandon Lear is drowning in drama. A divorce from his drug addicted ex-wife has left him the sole caregiver of his two little girls. Trying to juggle being a single father and the grind of another long hockey season has left him exhausted and stressed. So when photos of a woman clad in nothing but glasses and sexy lingerie land on his phone after a tough road game, it's a welcome distraction. He likes what he sees, but quickly discovers he likes talking to the mystery woman who sent the photos even more.
When Hannah learns that the man on the other end of the phone in possession of her sexy pictures is \the\ Brandon Lear, her favorite hockey player of all time, she's completely mortified-until she learns that her attraction might not be as one-sided as she originally thought. But Brandon's determined to keep Hannah strictly in the friend-zone. Despite their sizzling chemistry and his growing desire to get his hands all over her delicious curves, pulling the sweet college co-ed into his chaotic life right now just doesn't seem like a smart decision.
Her crush on the charming, tattooed forward heats up along with their budding friendship, and Brandon soon finds himself breaking his own rules when it comes to Hannah-giving in to temptation at every turn.
Will dating her favorite hockey player play out just like Hannah's always dreamed? Or are some dreams never meant to come true?

2021
Hockey’s hottest defenseman has got her exactly where he wants her...
Seven years ago, Holland Wilkes fell hard for college hockey star Eli Donnelley. She vowed never to crush on another gorgeous jock after getting hurt in the past, but Eli's charm, sense of humor, and wickedly sinful smile made her re-think that vow.
Until one hot night together shattered her heart and destroyed their friendship.
But that was then, and this is now.
As a reporter for the Lucky Bounce, a gossip blog dedicated to the lives, loves, and hook-ups of the Las Vegas Kingsnakes hockey team, Holly’s well-aware of Eli’s reputation off of the ice. Since they’ve reconnected a year ago, he hasn’t stopped trying to make a play for her, despite the fact she’s made it clear he has no shot.
To stack the odds in his favor, he’s promised Holly’s editor 30 days of behind-the-scenes-access to him so the Lucky Bounce can publish an exclusive feature about his life—with just one little catch: Holly has to be the one to write it.
Now, after sharing one blisteringly hot kiss, all her old feelings come roaring to the surface, and she’s not sure she’s ready to handle what the next 30 days might hold.
In order to get through this assignment, she’s going to have to revisit the past to find a way to put all of her anger and heartbreak with Eli behind her, if it’s not already too late…
