Last year, defensive end Deacon Harris witnessed the very worst of the Charleston Condors. After everything he and the team went through, he promised himself he'd walk away from football. But before he can retire, the team is sold to the last person he ever expected to see again. Deacon stays because the Condors are going into major rebuilding mode. New owner. New coach. New players. New rules. But one rule hasn't changed: don't fall in love with the owner of your football team.

What I learned after last year’s distractions cost my hockey team our entire season? No more screwing up. No more screwing, period.

"Look out for Zach, and don't hit on him." My brother's request sounds easy enough. Keep an eye out for his best friend on campus and keep my hands to myself. Easy. Even if Zach is a quintessential nerd, who I've always thought was cute, I don't have the time to think with my...stick. There's only one stick I should be focused on this year, and that's my hockey stick. My goal once I graduate is to get an NHL contract. The last thing I need is a distraction. On or off the ice. Only, keeping to the rules is harder than I thought it would be. 

He’s supposed to be playing rugby—not playing me. I didn’t think it was possible to hate someone. Like utterly despise another human. Then I was hired to babysit the Royals’ newest star and found out just how wrong I was. My job should’ve been easy. Keep the hotshot on time and out of trouble. But that’s hard to do when I dream of smothering him with his jersey. Every day delivers a new reason to detest Gray Adler. His truck is the size of a whale, and he uses the horn like a weapon.

Playing ball is easy. Falling in love is complicated. I want her. There's just one problem. She's my doctor, and she says it's a no-no. I've never been one to play by the rules. But she's not falling for me. Olivia is the challenge I have to beat. With her lush curves and her by-the-book attitude, all I want to do is show her exactly what she's missing. Again and again and again. I'll bring her to her knees . . . in more ways than one. I didn't count on her bringing me to my knees.

Baseball god Sevin Smith is no longer just the noisy bachelor living above me. Now he’s the MVP client I have to protect from a paternity scandal, and I’m not thrilled that my boss has me on the case. That’s fine. I can pretend and work with a man who’s become my enemy. But what I can’t pretend is not to be attracted to him - to not be falling for his sexy laugh and easy smile. And I definitely can’t pretend I’m not falling for the spunky eight-year-old kid that may or may not be his.

Alex Keller. Talented winger. The handsome hotshot player every girl on campus dreams of. And my fake boyfriend for the next two weeks. His idea, not mine.

There's nothing wrong with playing the game--except when you know you're about to lose. As a little girl, I dreamed of becoming many things. A twenty-five-year-old photographer struggling to make ends meet with a mountain of legal fees wasn't one of them. Making questionable decisions wasn't either. After hanging up my camera, I start a job I loathe that has me questioning my morals on a daily basis. Until I run into Chicago's newest bad-boy goalie whose reputation is a trainwreck--Emory Olson.

To ensure my body parts stay intact, I only need to follow one simple rule: don't touch my captain's little sister.

Jace Thatcher musthave her. Ever since he laid eyes on Riley, the Tennessee Tigers' star wide receiver has been consumed by the thought of making her his—possessing her, body and soul. But Riley isn't a game to be won. She has scars that run deep, and a past that's never too far behind her. Riley's looking for a clean start when the cocky football player enters her life. His dangerously seductive grin has her feeling weak in the knees, blowing past the carefully crafted defenses she's built to keep her from making the same mistakes all over again.

Landon has everything: skill, fame, the Stanley Cup in his sights, and the arrogant attitude to back it all up. He doesn’t just play the game; he controls it.

I played by the rules my whole life. I climbed the ranks and became an undercover agent, tasked with taking down Kyle O'Reilly, the country's most corrupt police commissioner, and superstar Jackson O'Reilly's father. Then, with a single touch, I fall madly in love with Aurora Embers, Jackson's fiancée, and throw it all away. When I'm assigned to investigate Kyle's death, I do whatever it takes to get back to her. Stalking. Manipulating. Obstruction of justice. When my partner and best friend accuses Aurora of playing me, I don't care.

Hidden behind a mask at a charity ball, I let an unknown older man have me. He left me with more than just breathless memories—a secret I can never tell. Five years later, I'm a single mom, writing a piece on Atlanta Fire's legendary coach. He's a silver fox. Tempting, commanding, intent on using his sexy authority… on me. We should keep our distance. I'm his player's younger sister, and he's decades off-limits. And then I see it. The birthmark on his shoulder. The same one I saw on my masked lover five years ago.
