Try Harder Quotes

Zoey Blake swore off athletes the day she caught her hockey player boyfriend cheating with a cheerleader. She's done with games, on and off the ice, and plans to keep her distance from that world for good. But when her new tutoring assignment lands her with four players from her ex’s rival team, staying away gets complicated. They're nothing like she expected, frustrating, funny, and unexpectedly kind. And when they ask her to help with a plan to get back at her ex, she agrees, even if it means pretending to be part of their world again. What starts as a simple favour slowly blurs the lines Zoey worked hard to draw. The more time she spends with them, the harder it becomes to remember why she built those walls in the first place. She promised herself she’d never fall for another hockey player. She never imagined four of them might change her mind.

Amelia Rose was never meant to survive. At twenty-two, she works three jobs to keep her drug-addicted parents alive, only to be beaten and sold by the very people she sacrificed everything for. When she wakes chained in a black-market auction house, her fate is sealed with a single bid. Four billion dollars. Kade Silvano never planned to buy a woman. A respected CEO by day and an untouchable king of the underground by night, he attends the auction out of obligation, not interest, until Amelia steps onto the stage. Silent. Defiant. Unbroken. Instead of making her his possession, he brings her into his world as the nanny to his three-year-old daughter. A rule. A boundary. A lie they both pretend to believe. Because the closer Amelia gets, the more dangerous Kade becomes. And the deeper she falls, the harder it is to tell where captivity ends and desire begins. In a world ruled by blood, power, and obsession, love is not soft. It is chosen. And it always comes at a price.
