Getting pregnant after a one-night stand with my brother’s best friend was never part of the plan. We’re talking about Foster Davis here. Chicago Colts closing pitcher. The broody king of one-word answers. And the man everyone knows keeps one foot out the door. Surprisingly, when two pink lines turn my world upside down, Foster doesn’t run. He steps in, he shows up, and he insists we do this together. Pretending we’re fine is easy. Pretending this is just about the baby? Not so much. Because Foster is gentle when no one’s watching. Because he looks at me like I’m something worth protecting.

I made a deal with my brother a long time ago to never date his teammates. Technically, Rowan Landry, the hot as hell center for the Chicago Falcons, is no longer my brother’s teammate. Or his best friend. Their college days are long behind them, and they barely talk now. Also, I’m not dating him—we’re just sleeping together. There’s a difference.

Raising my cousin’s three kids wasn’t in my five-year plan. Actually, it wasn’t in any plan. One minute I’m a single labor and delivery nurse living a quiet life and the next, I’m navigating guardianship hearings, meltdowns, and homework I’m pretty sure requires a math degree. Enter Hayes Carlisle. My best friend’s older brother. Chicago Colts newest catcher. And the man I once kissed and immediately pretended I didn’t. So, when the custody battle I’ve been dreading becomes a reality, I shouldn’t be surprised that Hayes swoops in with a wild idea—a fake relationship.

To most people, he’s the Chicago Falcons starting right winger and hot single dad, but to me, he’s my first boyfriend, my first kiss, my first love. Eight years ago, that all changed when our lives took us in two different directions. Our break-up almost broke me, so I kept my distance until our hometown called me back to where our story began. I promised myself a quick visit to help my family out, and then I’d leave town before he even knew I was back, which should have been easy. He’s way too busy being a professional hockey player and raising his son to ever find out.

In truth, it probably didn’t help that I showed up dressed like an elf but that’s a story for another time. Our start was rocky at best which is why it’s so frustrating that I can’t stop thinking about his sexy British accent. Or the way his chest and arms fill out his suit. Or his perfect hair with that single streak of grey at the front.

Three years ago, I swore to myself we were done. Since then, Tweetie Sorenson has embraced the professional hockey player bachelor lifestyle—his social media is a highlight reel of clubs, friends, and a never-ending stream of different women. It’s hard to believe he’s the same man who stole my heart the very night we met. With him, everything felt wild, spontaneous, and absolutely perfect. I thought he was my forever.

Hockey players were never my type. At least, that’s what I thought—until I met Conor Nilsen. In truth, I didn’t know he was the goalie for the Chicago Falcons when he struck up a conversation the night of my bachelorette party. He proved he wasn’t just some hot guy looking to score when he helped me get my drunk bridesmaid safely back to our hotel. That’s when he discovered my 30-before-30 bucket list—a list I hadn’t managed to check a single item off. What was meant to be a night of stargazing turned into so much more.

When the team’s plane gets grounded right before Christmas, the Falcons will stop at nothing to make it home for the holidays, including launching their own Planes, Trains, and Automobiles-style mission across the country to get back to their wives and kids.

Best Friends to Lovers. Wenn eine einzige Nacht alles verändert... Seit Xavier Greene denken kann, sind er und Clara beste Freunde. Sie ist die Einzige, die ihn wirklich kennt. In den schwierigsten Zeiten waren sie immer füreinander da. Selbst als er für seinen Traum als Football-Profi von Alaska nach San Francisco zog, haben die beiden den Kontakt nicht verloren. Doch seit sie vor zwei Jahren eine heiße Nacht miteinander verbracht haben, ist nichts mehr wie vorher. Xavier bereut, wie sehr er Clara damals verletzt hat.

If you’re a guy like me, and you find yourself having banged your sexy new boss - the school principal - in the back of your Jeep one drunken night, here’s a few takeaways based on my experience. Lesson One: Always get her full name. Lesson Two: Consider asking what she does for a living. Lesson Three: Find out why she’s moved to town. Get details. Details are crucial....

When my best friends dragged me to a first responders bachelor auction, I expected drinks, laughs, and some much-needed girl time. I didn’t expect them to bid on a date—for me—with Mauro Bianco. The former quarterback was my high school crush back when I was invisible. The girl no one ever looked at twice. Now, Mauro’s a firefighter with a body that could stop traffic, and a smile that’s just as devastating as I remember. One date. That’s all I’m committed to. A few hours and I can tuck him back into that tattered old shoebox in my closet.

He’s an Army Ranger. She’s a baker. He’s organized and ridged. She’s messy and carefree. He doesn’t do relationships. She’s following her heart. His family chat blows up his phone. She just buried her last living relative. The holiday season doesn’t seem so jolly, as they venture from one mode of transportation to the next.

Regeln sind da, um gebrochen zu werden! Dasselbe gilt nicht für das Herz der Schwester deines besten Freundes... Jed Greene hat die goldene Regel gebrochen: Fang nichts mit der besten Freundin deiner Schwester an. Zu seiner Verteidigung ist Jed gerade ziemlich durch den Wind, hat er doch vor wenigen Tagen herausgefunden, dass er eine dreijährige Tochter hat. Nicht gerade Neuigkeiten, die er gut verkraften kann. Niemand soll von dem One-Night-Stand mit Molly erfahren, mit dem er sich ablenken wollte.

I’ve known him since we were six, long before he became the professional soccer star he is now. We’ve weaved in and out of one another’s lives as rivals, teammates, friends, and lovers. Until three years ago, when my life took a hit, and I ran back to my small Alaskan town, Lake Starlight, away from anything or anyone that could hurt me.

The Kingsmen’s best wide receiver. Rich AF. Hot as hell. A stallion in the sack. How do I know that last fact? I may have shared a one-night stand with him six months ago when I was rebounding from a broken heart.

Wer hätte gedacht, dass es so viel Spaß machen würde, mit dem Feind zu schlafen? War der One-Night-Stand eine gute Idee? Rückblickend wohl eher nicht. Zu meiner Verteidigung kann ich nur sagen, ich hatte gerade meinen Traumjob verloren, war zurück ins Haus meiner Großeltern nach San Francisco gezogen und ein Typ von Tinder hatte mich versetzt. Es war, als hätte mir das Leben den "Loser"-Stempel aufgedrückt. Und als der Kerl hinter der Bar mich dann mit diesem Blick ansah, mit seinem perfekten Dreitagebart, dem Bizeps, der sich unter seinem Shirt wölbte, und mit diesem Grinsen... Ich gebe zu, dass ich impulsiv gehandelt habe.

Never in my life did I think I’d wager in my head whether to sleep with Chicago Grizzlies wide receiver, Damon Siska. He’s the perfect package—hot body, killer smile, and flirts like he earned a doctorate in it. But anyone who reads gossip blogs knows he is looking for one amazing night and nothing more. I’m not the usual type of woman he beds. I’m a middle school teacher who cherishes her quiet nights in, drinking wine, and watching romantic comedies, dreaming I’m the heroine. I’m not embarrassed to admit—I want the fairy tale.

Verliebe dich nicht in deine beste Freundin – Das Finale der Winter-Romance-Serie der Bestsellerautorin Zu dieser Zeit des Jahres hänge ich normalerweise mein Snowboard weg und entspanne mich. Aber nicht dieses Jahr. Dieses Jahr muss ich mit dem umgehen, was mir das Schicksal bei den Winterspielen beschert hat – nein, nicht Gold. Einen gebrochenen Arm. Weil ich meiner Familie nicht nahestehe, komme ich in der Blockhütte meiner besten Freundin Skylar unter.

Nichts kann ihm den Boden unter den Füßen wegziehen. Bis sie sein Leben auf den Kopf stellt. Fisher Greene ist Sheriff in Sunrise Bay und ein pflichtbewusster Typ. Nichts kann ihn aus der Ruhe bringen. Er ist Pragmatiker, kein Romantiker. Als sein ehemaliger One-Night-Stand Alicia plötzlich hochschwanger mit Zwillingen auf der Matte steht, ist für ihn klar, was zu tun ist: Er will mit Alicia zusammenziehen und für ihre gemeinsamen Babys sorgen. Doch die hat sich die große Liebe anders vorgestellt als in einer Zweckfamilie.

When I find her elbow-deep in a tub of ice cream with tears running down her face, how can I turn down her proposition? Suddenly, a fake relationship becomes a fake marriage that we have to keep up all summer. Which is all fine and good except for the part where we both agreed not to let anything ‘real’ creep into our arrangement. But then certain parts of me start to crave certain parts of her and things become even more complicated because we both have our own reasons for wanting what we have to remain make-believe only.
