When it comes to hockey, I'm as good at scoring off the ice as I am on it. With puck bunnies in every city, I’ve got my bachelor life dialed in—no strings, no problem. I’ve got a type: hot, blonde, and easy. So when Sarah Nelson, my teammate’s brunette sister, storms into my life, I’m not interested. She’s feisty, way too serious, and not my kind of fun. But my mom, who’s now living with me and complicating everything, likes her, and COVID-19 just put us all on lockdown.

My life is as tangled as a wad of skate laces—and it’s a mess I’ve created. I’m captain of my hockey team, on the verge of having my C stripped away. It’s time to piece things back together, and I’m ready for a fresh start. But then I crash into Ellie Hendricks. Literally. Ellie’s got her own battles, trying to keep her landscaping company afloat. The last thing she needs is someone like me barreling into her world. But I’m determined to make up for my latest screwup, and I won’t stop until I get my way.

I’m the toughest enforcer in the league. I’ve worked hard for that title, but there’s one little problem with being an overachiever: I never know when to quit. So when I sucker-punch a rival on the ice, I end up benched for the rest of the season, suspended, and traded to Colorado. Feeling guilty and wanting to make things right, I decide to visit the injured player… only to be caught off guard by a stunning woman I meet at the hospital.

I’ve landed in Denver as a backup goalie—a huge step down from the starting position I’m used to. Uprooting my two young kids after losing their mom wasn’t in the plan. I thought I could ease the sting by hitting the reset button and maybe channeling a bit of my younger, single self. But the dating game? I’m rusty. Then I meet Mia Morales—the stunning agent helping me find our new home. She’s smart, beautiful, and way out of my league. With her fiery spirit, she makes me feel things I haven’t in a long time.

My life just hit the skids, hard. After a drug scandal blew up in my face, I’m out of a team, my endorsements are gone, and my bank account’s pretty much empty. So now I’m stuck trying to sell my house to scrape together some cash. The kicker? I’ve got to work with Paige Anderson, the real estate agent with a smile that could light up a room—and the woman I made a complete fool of myself with not too long ago.

Lily’s trapped in a past she can’t escape. One night of passion with me seemed to help her forget—until dawn broke. She ran without looking back. When chance has us bumping into each other in front of a strip club (it’s not what it sounds like), she realizes she’s misjudged me—and maybe even her own heart. But she’s not ready to bury her specters, and what started as a one-night stand is threatening to bloom into something that will unravel her carefully laced-up world.

When I spot Serena Lambert in danger, I don’t think twice—I jump in to help. It’s only after that I realize what I’ve done: I’ve played the knight in shining armor for the woman who probably hates my guts more than anyone else on the planet. Serena, the Blizzard’s PR director and the bane of my existence, looks just as shocked as I feel. Guess she thought she was finally rid of me. But bad pennies? We always turn up.

I've always been the wingman, backing up my best friend on and off the ice. Fighting for every shift, I never minded his easy wins or his rise to stardom until Claudia Campbell walks into our lives. She's a game-changer. Itching to escape her stifling family's grip, Claudia's not looking for anything serious. But when the campus hockey star makes his move, she puts her dreams on hold. Me? I'm the bonus, the solid guy she can trust. Marty LeBrun, the best friend who's always there. But I want to be more than that, even if it means keeping quiet about my buddy's wild side.

Blake Barrett here. My wicked wrist shot’s on fire, and the NHL spotlight’s on me. But off the ice? Let’s say my skills could use some work. Enter Michaela Wagner, my new neighbor—a sharp attorney with no time for my fumbling. When she offers kissing lessons, I jump at the chance, confident there’s no risk of getting attached. Love isn’t for me, thanks to my parents’ disastrous marriage. Happily-ever-after? Yeah, right.

Drew Foster is trapped in a one-man operation. Focused on building his small IT consulting business, the workaholic thirty-one-year-old has no time for close relationships except with his sister and widowed mom. But at a Halloween bash hosted by his brother-in-law’s hockey teammate, he hits it off with an unknown woman in an outrageous mascot costume.

I’ve been counting down to summer—finally, a chance to escape. After a brutal hockey season, all I want is peace and quiet on my new ranch. But a streak of bad weather traps me with my neighbor, Terra White, and suddenly, solitude doesn’t seem so appealing. Terra’s got a spark I can’t ignore, even though I keep telling myself to. She’s funny, adventurous, and easy to be around. But her father is a different story. Disapproving and overprotective, he’s made it clear he thinks Terra deserves someone who won’t let her down. After my own failed marriage, I’m not convinced that’s me.
