I’m the father of my best friend’s sister’s son—only she doesn’t know it.

As the maid of honor at my best friend's wedding, I was only supposed to dance with her older brother..NOT sleep with him. He’s Julian Maxmillian: a famous hockey player and a notorious playboy. With his stoic blue eyes, chiseled abs and 6’3” frame, he’s the best kind of trouble, in the worst kind of way. We were complete strangers just one week ago, when I berated him for spilling his drink all over my dress. And now here I am, with my dress on his bedroom floor. A one night stand during his off season, becomes an overtime game that I am not equipped to play. When his dad becomes ...

Dave Hill—author, actor, rock musician and stand-up comedian—is a truly outstanding American. For one thing, he's part Canadian (an advantage he explored in his previous book Parking the Moose). For another, and maybe this has something to do with his Canadian heritage, he's a totally obsessive fan of hockey. That makes him a minority within a minority: apparently only five percent of the US population admit to liking hockey more than any other sport.

I broke my #1 rule and slept with the girl next door. Now, my usually guarded heart is skating on thin ice. New city, new NHL team, same dating rules: no doubling back. I learned the hard way after heartbreak that one and done is my MO. Then Emery, a past one-night-stand, moves in next door. I can't stop obsessing about her legs wrapped around my head again. I propose a friends-with-benefits arrangement and to my delight, she agrees. Passions explode and boundaries blur as I re-explore every inch of her curvy body. Our superficial game deepens faster than a slapshot from halfcourt. In spite...

Fueled by a passion for running dogs, Gary Paulsen entered the Iditarod - the 1,180-mile sled-dog race through the Alaskan wilderness - in dangerous ignorance and with a fierce determination. For 17 days, he and his team of dogs endured blinding wind, snowstorms, frostbite, dogfights, moose attacks, sleeplessness, hallucinations - and the relentless push to go on.

Shawn Thornton was an unlikely NHL success, to say the least. The Oshawa, Ontario, native was picked late in the OHL and later thought he was being pranked when the Toronto Maple Leafs called him to say he'd been selected in the seventh round of the 1997 NHL draft. After years spent working and maturing in the AHL, Thornton would go on to play fourteen seasons with the Chicago Blackhawks, Anaheim Ducks, Boston Bruins, and Florida Panthers, winning two Stanley Cups along the way.

Every summer in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Nick Baumgartner went to work pouring concrete, taking on the harsh physical conditions of the construction trade to support his professional snowboarding dreams come winter. To limit travel time while he trained for the Olympics an hour and a half away from home, he lived out of a crusty, old construction van, parked anywhere he could find a spot. And in 2022, after seventeen years of failure—all the crashes, injuries, and personal setbacks—he won Olympic gold at forty years old, becoming the oldest Olympic snowboard medalist in history.

He’s the type of guy I’ve always been warned about: ambitious, too hot to handle, and my grumpy boss to boot! And yet, I jump willingly into that fire. . . I knew better. I mean, I’m a Badass Queen, ruling in a male-run world. But even Queens need to have fun, and what I needed was a dirty, flirty one-night stand. Enter Dominic "Dom" Steele, billionaire hockey legend. At 6’ 3", his presence is commanding. Each muscle finely sculpted, his body is pure perfection. He moves with a confidence that screams, “I’m a man who knows what I want.” He wanted me and I wanted him. Simple ...

Wham, bam, no thank you, ma’am— That was the end of a one-night stand with my brother’s off-limits best friend. Or so I thought. But now that we’re in a fake relationship, all bets are off. . . Ryder Lafferty is perfect— bronzed, primal and ripped beyond belief, with muscles and manhood that strain to be released. I couldn’t resist. And he did not disappoint. He pleasured me like no man my age ever had before, awakening a fire long thought dead. I wanted more. But he disappeared. Years later, I return to our small town and run into Ryder, now a billionaire hockey star and single...

Once upon a time, they taught us to believe. They were the 1980 US Olympic hockey team, a blue-collar bunch led by an unconventional coach, and they engineered perhaps the greatest sports moment of the 20th century. Their "Miracle on Ice" has become a national fairy tale, but the real Cinderella story is even more remarkable. It is a legacy of hope, hard work, and homegrown triumph. It is a chronicle of everyday heroes who just wanted to play hockey happily ever after.

Dating my small town's hottest billionaire seems like a fairy tale. But little do they know, it's all a charade… Struggling after my dream coffee shop in Seattle crashed and having my heart broken by my ex, I flee to my hometown, determined to buy back my former café and rebuild my life. Back in Cedarwood, I face a double blow: my possessive ex tracked me down, and someone just beat me to buying ‘Mocha Memoirs’—by a day. Worse yet, that someone is none other than Jake Rogers—my best friend’s brother and my old flame, whose body is one hot chiseled masterpiece with well-defined ...

Steph Jagger had always been a force of nature.

She was accomplished. She was living "The Dream". But it wasn't her dream. Then the universe caught her attention with a sign: Raise Restraining Device.

Add one cocky hockey god, one feisty female, and many emotions left unsaid. Stir together in a fake engagement of convenience. Stand back… Max I’d never missed a beat when it came to women and hockey. But all my usuals fell by the wayside that night. I never intended to seduce Hailey Rogers, my best friend’s off-limits sister. Hey, that was a bro-code violation. But she was sizzling perfection, so I pulled her body in and took her—and her V-card. Then I ran… and Hailey’s plaintive question as the door slammed shut echoed in me for years: “Max?” Hailey Max Decker is back. Now...
