The majority of my life has centered around one thing and one thing only. Hockey. Being the daughter of a player, I know the ins and outs of the sport. Including the hurt that can come with it. I've grown to hate it. That hate runs so deep that when a player steps into my life in a towel, I do everything I can to hate him too. After a few summer nights, though, it starts to become impossible.

My love for Damien fills me, and the intensity of our bond brings me to my knees. For him, there is no burden I wouldn’t bear, no decadent punishment to which I won’t submit. The dark days seemingly behind us, we have carved a life out of adversity, chiseling away pain to reveal strength and beauty.

Emma Luchessi may be a witch from Long Island but she is used to her life being quiet. Some may even say boring. Boring is safe. Like beige. One doesn't get into trouble with beige. But a wrong turn off a southern highway is about to turn Emma's beige life into everything but boring.

One minute, I'm about to lose my job. Then the next minute, I'm falling for my boss. In my defense, I didn't know that Jace was the new owner of the company that I worked for. He was just a hot billionaire that I met in a coffee shop, one that I wanted to explore a relationship with. I wanted to flaunt him, to make other women jealous. But of course, life works in mysterious ways. The flaunting went down the drain when he became my top secret at the office.

Ever wonder how Boaz and Addie met? Why they got engaged? How they fell in love? Well, this story will answer one of those questions. Which one? Good question! Wait. Does that count as the one question? Guess you'll have to listen to find out. 

Everything about Dylan melts me. He's more than that ripped chest, those strong arms. The best thing about him is his daughter, the daughter that I babysit. He shares Maisie with his ex-wife. But I see the concern in his eyes. He wants his daughter to be loved, to be safe, and he needs my help. A fake marriage with me would win him the custody battle. The only hiccup? I let him take my V-card and get me pregnant. I shouldn't have kept it a secret.

It all started with "goodbye." He left town before graduation, leaving me with nothing but questions and shattered promises. A year later, he's back. But high school is over. And I've made promises to somebody else . . . Finn may be different now—with new tattoos and new secrets—but his goals are the same. He wants me. Whatever it takes. Problem is, he's not the only one who's changed since the accident.

It all started with an ad . . . "House sitter needed for the summer, room and board provided." Guess I missed the part about the cocky basketball player sleeping down the hall. Finn Richards is hot, cruel, broken beyond repair. Oh, and did I mention hell-bent on making me quit? Whatever. It's not like his charms work on me. I'm immune to his deep hazel eyes, and I'm not even a little bit curious about what happened that night. It's just two months. I can definitely go two months without ripping his head off. Only problem is, I'm not sure the same goes for his clothes.

Divorce can be murder . . . and divorce lawyers can get murdered. I'm Kim DeLuca—assistant to Ollie Spalding, Connecticut's most successful divorce lawyer. I'm the one who keeps his empire running while he charms his way through every courtroom in the state. Ollie isn't just my boss. I was a...

Nick, my brother's best friend, had me at first touch. It's hard to resist a hot doctor like him. Even for an innocent girl like me. He's a perfect blend of muscle and brains. And the way he trails his fingers across my curves melts me. I've spent years in the big city, longing for him. Now, I'm back in my hometown. Back in the same place as Nick. Working for the same damn hospital. What are the odds? The universe has pushed us back into a forbidden relationship. Nick got me pregnant. The last thing I wanted was an accidental pregnancy. But could it be the only thing we both need?

I'd always found Irish men to be irresistible. And Devin? He's the hottest one of them all. I had my chance with him. Heck, I even have a baby with him. A four-year-old boy. My only secret. I lost my V-card to Devin on St. Patrick's night four years ago. My biggest mistake was thinking that I could trust him. Hot men like him are trouble. Besides, he made it clear to me that he hates kids. Hates. Fast-forward to when he meets our little boy. A meeting that I tried my hardest to avoid. I might have expected them to get along but...best buddies?  

I died nine months ago. My heart was still buried six feet under. Being labeled a widower at thirty was too kind. I was a ghost. Eat. Sleep. Work. Repeat. Until she crashed into my life without warning.

My life with Damien has always been magical, and never more so than during the holidays, a time for us to celebrate the hardships we’ve overcome and the incredible gift that is our family. Over the years, he has both protected and cherished me. He has made my life more rich and full than I could ever have imagined. This year, he’s treating me and our daughters to a holiday in Manhattan. With parades and ice skating, toy displays and candies. And, most of all, with each other.

Brayden and I have everything going against us. There was a time when we were madly in love. Our laughter still echoes in my ears. They say marriage is built on trust. They said love is the foundation. I wonder if we have either of those now. And what's worse? I've been diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. Divorce or death. I have no clue what comes first. But they both feel the same. Brayden still has my heart. And I have a feeling that he wants to keep it.

Twenty-two when I wrote a viral tabloid article on his bandmate to pay for the medicine that I needed for life. Twenty-three when I realized my dream job in California was destroying every moral in which I was raised to believe. Twenty-four when I accepted that I might have to give up my West Coast dreams to return home and admit defeat. And now, 25, when the lead singer of Violet Wonders comes crashing in.

My hot secretary used me to push her ex away. It backfired. Making her ex jealous was one thing. Showing her off to my own family was another. My snooty folks hated her. And that brought us closer. It made this fake arrangement a little more real. Very real. And it also made working with her awkward. Very awkward. But the worst part was when she disappeared and then showed up with a baby bump. I was about to be a father. And I was determined to make my former fake fiancee...my wife.
