Sic Santos

Cuando mi esposo me amenazó por centésima vez con el divorcio para que me sacrificara por mi hermana, Yoli Santos, no lloré ni hice escándalo. Simplemente firmé el acuerdo de divorcio, y le entregué en bandeja al hombre que había amado durante diez años. Días después, Yoli metió la pata en una fiesta y ofendió a una familia poderosa. Una vez más, fui yo quien cargó con la culpa por ella y asumí todas las consecuencias. Incluso cuando propusieron que yo fuera la voluntaria para probar el medicamento del proyecto de mi hermana, acepté sin dudar. Mis padres dijeron que por fin me había vuelto una hija razonable. Hasta mi esposo, tan frío como siempre, se paró junto a mi cama, me acarició la mejilla, algo que no hacía desde hacía años, y me dijo con ternura: —No tengas miedo. El experimento no es peligroso. Cuando salgas, te prepararé tu comida favorita. Pero él no sabía que, fuera o no peligroso el experimento, ya no iba a poder esperarme. Porque tengo una enfermedad terminal. Y me voy a morir muy pronto.

Sanay si Dominic Villaruel, isang gwapong bilyonaryo at may-ari ng kilalang hotel chain, na habulin at pagsilbihan ng mga babaeng halos mag-unahan para lamang mapansin siya. Dahil sa tingin niya’y pare-pareho lang ang lahat—nahuhulog sa kanyang yaman at sa kinang ng kanyang kagwapuhan—hindi niya kailanman sineseryoso ang pag-ibig. Mayabang, arogante, at sarado ang puso; iyon ang mundong matagal na niyang nakasanayan. Ngunit biglang nag-iba ang lahat nang makilala niya si Mira Santos, isang tahimik at introvert na staff sa kanyang hotel. Sa unang pagkikita, ni hindi siya nito binigyan ng tingin—para bang ang kinang ng kanyang itsura ay wala lang. Sa halip na ikababa ng kanyang ego, mas lalo siyang naiintriga.

At sa bawat saglit na magkasama sila, tila isang pana ng kupido ang muling bumuhay sa pusong matagal nang naniniwala na hindi na muling iibig.

A primeira vez que meu amigo de infância, Natan Santos, despertou como lobisomem, nossos amigos me chamaram para ajudá-lo a passar pelo cio. Mas Natan apenas balançou a cabeça. — Eu realmente não quero que ela consiga isso tão facilmente. O amor dos lobisomens é leal acima de tudo, e a primeira pessoa que eu marcar se torna minha companheira para a vida inteira. Quando a Isabela aparecer, eu não vou ceder, nem se ela implorar para me ajudar. Ele esperou e esperou, mas eu nunca apareci. Natan não sabia que o segurança do irmão dele, Luan, já havia lotado meu celular de mensagens. — Srta. Isabela, o Sr. Teodoro já a reivindicou como companheira. Por favor, pode vir e dar um beijo nele? Acontece que eu havia caído enquanto esquiava e morrido cinco anos antes. O irmão dele, Teodoro, me marcou e me deu metade da própria vida, me puxando de volta das garras da morte. Naquela noite, envolvi meus braços ao redor do pescoço de Teodoro e o provoquei: — Teo, para de se segurar. Me conta… há quantos anos você está secretamente apaixonado por mim?

They were supposed to be on the same team. Santos Khyle arrived in Seattle as the Soul Reapers' most anticipated rookie in years, a natural-born scorer with something to prove and a chip on his shoulder the size of a regulation puck. Gunner Jäger had been tearing up the ice as the team's feared enforcer for two seasons, and he had zero interest in sharing his spotlight with some orange-haired twenty-one year old who looked at him like he was a problem to be managed. From the moment they met, it was war. On the ice, they were a disaster. Off it, they were worse. Screaming matches in corridors. Fists through locker room walls. A live on-air brawl that made every highlight reel in North America and earned them both a suspension, a lecture from their furious coach, and the undivided attention of the entire hockey world. Nobody could stand to watch them together. Nobody could look away either. Because underneath the fury and the bruises and the months of spectacular mutual destruction, something else was building. Something neither of them had language for yet. Something that felt uncomfortably like the only fight either of them was actually afraid to lose. The Soul Reapers are one playoff run away from everything. Gunner and Khyle are one honest conversation away from falling apart completely. Or maybe, just maybe, from finally figuring out what they are to each other. Pucking Up the Ice is a slow burn MM romance set in the brutal and beautiful world of professional hockey. It contains explicit language, on-ice violence, emotional gut punches, two men who are absolutely terrible at feelings, and a love story that had to break everything before it could build something worth keeping.
