Being dumped by my mate, Ethan, on my dream New Year cruise tour was bad enough. Watching him swap spit with Vanessa? Absolute hell. Enter Lucas—the cocky, sinfully hot hockey Alpha—who claims I’m his mate. But he doesn’t want love; he wants revenge, proposing a fake relationship to rile Ethan. Now I’m stuck sharing a suite with the guy who has secrets of his own. Christmas and New Year on a luxury ship was supposed to be magical…not a steamy, chaotic mess. What could go wrong?

Nora Jensen hat für alles einen Plan. Abschlussjahr? Durchgeplant. Bewerbungen fürs College? Erledigt. Gefühle für Cole Whitaker, den unerträglich charmanten Hockeystar der Millbrook High? Ganz sicher kein Teil dieses Plans. Doch als Cole an ihrem Spind auftaucht, mit diesem Blick, den er niemals zugeben würde, diesem verzweifelten, und sagt: Du schuldest mir was, hört Nora sich selbst zustimmen. Zu dem lächerlichsten Gefallen ihres Lebens. Ein Familienessen. Eine falsche Freundin. Einfach. Klar. Ohne Gefühle. Nur ist an Cole Whitaker rein gar nichts einfach. Nicht die Art, wie er sich ihre Kaffeebestellung merkt, ohne zu fragen. Nicht die Art, wie er seine Lieblingsfarbe als das Eis vor dem Spiel beschreibt, kurz bevor das große Licht angeht. Und nicht die Art, wie er sie nach dem Abendessen auf der Veranda ansieht, als wäre sie etwas, das es wert ist, behalten zu werden, während sie so tun soll, als würde er sie gar nicht ansehen. Nora hat einen Deal gemacht. Sie hat nur das Kleingedruckte nicht gelesen. Den Teil, in dem aus gespielten Abendessen echte Gespräche werden. In dem sich ausgehandelte Bedingungen plötzlich wie Gefühle anfühlen. In dem der Junge, den man nur vorgeben sollte zu lieben, zu der einen Person wird, bei der man sich nicht mehr verstellen kann. Die Regeln waren einfach. Halte nicht seine Hand. Sieh ihn nicht so an, als würdest du ihn mögen. Verlieb dich nicht. Zwei von drei sind gar nicht schlecht.

Elara "Ella" has two secrets. The first? She's been secretly dating Damon Silverton, the star hockey player and the most popular guy in school, for nearly a year. He asked her to keep their relationship hidden until he was ready to go public. Ella agreed, even though it hurt to watch other girls, especially head cheerleader Sera Moon, throw themselves at him every day. The second secret? Ella is a werewolf. But her wolf has always been quiet, buried deep beneath years of bullying and rejection. No one knows. Not even Damon. When Damon promises to announce their relationship at the season's biggest hockey awards night, Ella finally lets herself hope. She sits in the front row, heart racing, ready to be seen. Ready to be chosen. But when Damon wins Best Player and Ella stands up, declaring her love for everyone to hear, he looks right through her. And calls Sera's name instead. The laughter still echoes in her ears three days later as she hides in her room. "Fatty." "Loser." "Did she really think he'd pick her?" On her fourth day back at school, broken and humiliated, Ella collides with someone in the hallway. A new student. Tall, intense, with eyes that seem to see straight through her walls. Her wolf, silent for eighteen years, suddenly explodes inside her chest with one undeniable truth: "Mate." But Kael Thorne isn't just any new student. He's a hockey player too. And he has no intention of letting the guy who broke his mate's heart get away with it.

Shana‘s world turned up side down when she realized she was wolfless. However, when Shana got bullied as the wolfless transfer student in a new school, the hot hockey captain suddenly ran to her and lifted her in his arms. ____________ "You were there for me when I needed you. Now, it's my turn to be there for you." Blinking in astonishment, I found myself staring into the familiar face of Bear— the chubby-cheeked, infectious-smiled, and brilliantly blue-eyed best friend I had thought I had lost.

I wasn’t just rejected. I was destroyed. My mate, Drew, chose my best friend, Miriam… and together, they exposed me—my naked body displayed for the entire school to see. By morning, I was nothing. No longer a daughter. No longer a mate. Just a disgrace. So I made a choice. If they wanted to ruin me… I would ruin them right back. But I didn’t expect him. Ace Callahan, the Alpha’s son. The most dangerous player on the ice. And the one man I should have never touched. Because he hates me. Blames me for a past I barely understand. And worse? He’s my dead twin sister’s mate. Now we’re trapped in something neither of us can control. A fake relationship that feels dangerously real. A hatred that burns hotter than desire. A past that refuses to stay buried. He says he wants to punish me. Break me. Make me confess to a crime I don’t even remember committing. But his actions? They say something else entirely. Because no matter how much he tortures me… He’s the only one who protects me with his life. The only one who looks at me like I already belong to him. And then I uncover the truth. A curse tied to his touch. A sister I may have lost because of him. And a power inside me that was never meant to awaken. Now I’m not just fighting for revenge… I’m fighting to survive him. If you crave: 🔥 Enemies-to-lovers with explosive chemistry 🔥 Dark, possessive alpha males 🔥 Fated mates with a forbidden twist 🔥 Revenge, secrets, and betrayal 🔥 A heroine who rises from ruin Then this story will have you hooked from the very first page.

He’s my brother’s best friend. The golden boy of the ice rink. The one every girl in town dreams about, except I’ve been doing more than dreaming. I’ve been wanting him for years. But he’s forbidden. Not just because of my brother, who would tear the world apart if he knew what I felt, but because of what we are. Wolves. Bound by pack law. Caged by duty. And I was raised knowing the one rule that can’t be broken, never cross the line with someone who isn’t chosen for you. Except lines blur when he looks at me the way he does now. When his touch lingers too long. When his wolf calls to mine in a way I can’t ignore. On the ice, he’s ruthless, a star forward who plays to win. Off the ice, he’s reckless, dangerous, and everything I should run from. But one stolen kiss in the shadows changes everything. Suddenly, keeping secrets becomes as natural as breathing, and every game, every glance, every accidental brush of his hand is a war between what’s right and what we crave. Because this isn’t just about love, it’s about survival. Packs don’t forgive betrayal. Families don’t forgive broken trust. And if anyone finds out that I belong to him, the fallout won’t just destroy his career or my family’s name. It could start a war. He’s the one man I can’t have… and the only one my wolf refuses to let go.

"Open wide, Golden Boy. I know you’ve been imagining sucking my cock in your head the entire practice." ​The cold floor of the locker room is bruising my knees, but it’s nothing compared to the grip Michael Rossi has on my hair. My mouth is stretched tight around his cock, my heart hammering against my ribs in a rhythm of pure, unadulterated shame. I’m the star defenseman for the Knights, the disciplined, untouchable Axel Thorne and yet here I am, choking on the pride of my greatest enemy while he talks to me like I’m his favorite toy. ~~~~~~~ They call Michael Rossi the “Menace,” and for once, the media isn't exaggerating. He’s the jagged edge of the Rebels’ front line,a dirty, arrogant prick with a god complex. I’ve hated him since the night he stole my girlfriend just to prove he could. For eighteen months, he’s dismantled my peace, chirping in my ear and checking me into the boards with a smirk. ​Now, a viral "spite kiss" has trapped us in a PR contract. I’m supposed to play along with the man who ruined my life, but the closer I get, the more I realize the rivalry was just the beginning. ~~~~~~~ ​Axel Thorne is the "Golden Boy", disciplined, loved, and blissfully oblivious. He thinks I’m the villain who stole his girl; he doesn’t realize I only did it to see the look in his eyes. This rivalry was never about the game; it was about obsession. I’ve spent every restless night imagining how it would feel to finally claim him. ​Axel thinks we’re faking it to save our career. He’s wrong. I’m playing a game where he only wins by losing himself to me.

Tamine Jordan has three rules for surviving Blackridge Academy: 1. Keep her head down. 2. Avoid the Thorpe brothers at all costs. 3. Never, ever, let her heart get involved again.

The real question is, will Tamine survive the game, or end up playing it too?
