by Jessica Rocha

Molly and Aster have spent years side by side, growing from childhood best friends into fierce university hockey teammates with Olympic dreams shining ahead. They share everything: early practices, late-night laughs, and a bond that feels unbreakable. But one impulsive night tilts the balance they’ve always trusted. Suddenly, every glance lingers a little longer, every touch feels louder, and the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur. Just as emotions start skating into risky territory, an unsettling shadow creeps into their world, forcing them closer than ever. Between ambition, loyalty, and rising tension, Molly must face a truth she’s long avoided. Because when hearts and dreams collide, staying safe might mean risking everything she thought she knew.

Once Upon a Christmas Eve

Once Upon a Christmas Eve

by Jezza Deep

Tina’s Christmas spirit disappears the moment she catches her boyfriend cheating—two weeks before the holiday. She’s set on working through the season, dodging mistletoe and cheer, until a handsome, desperate shopper appears at her store after closing on Christmas Eve. Her sarcasm is sharp, but she lets him in… and finds herself sharing more than just retail space. Thomas has his own reasons to hate the holidays, but one night of banter, warmth, and undeniable heat melts the frost between them. What starts as a fling begins to feel like more, and as feelings deepen, so does the risk. Because sometimes the best gifts aren’t wrapped—they’re found.

But when Kate convinces him to step in, sparks begin to fly beneath the twinkling lights. She’s sugar and sparkle, he’s shadows and scars—and somehow, together, they might just stumble into the most unexpected gift of all: a love that feels like Christmas magic.

Susan believes the cold is the safest place to hide a bruised past. In the wide silence of Alaska, she builds a life that feels calm, controlled, and carefully distant.

Attraction grows alongside unspoken truths, and every shared moment feels both thrilling and dangerous. They circle each other with humor, heat, and hesitation, drawn together by something deeper than fear. But frozen hearts crack loudly, and some secrets burn hotter than the cold. When survival demands honesty, can connection survive the thaw?
