Then her new neighbor shows up with a grin that is far too warm and a confidence that rattles her steady stride. Every encounter knocks her a little off balance, and his teasing spark feels annoyingly good. He sees the shadows she carries, yet he steps closer instead of backing away. As their playful clashes grow into something softer, Vanessa feels the light tugging at her edges. Letting him in might be messy, risky, and wildly inconvenient… but it also might be the first thing that feels right in a long time.

Lizette

Chloe thrives on control, sharp comebacks, and fixing impossible reputations. So when the Frozen City Vipers hire her to clean up their latest scandal, she walks in ready to work. The problem? Ryder.

Between icy stares, late-night strategy sessions, and tension hot enough to melt the rink, Chloe and Ryder start slipping past each other’s defenses. But secrets, pride, and careers make falling for each other the riskiest play of all.

“If you think I’m going to let you walk in here like a free agent, you’re hardly mistaken,” Owen says, looking down at me.

But when unexpected circumstances force her to rely on him, their dynamic takes a heated turn. Owen has his own conditions for helping her, leaving Taylor to question everything she thought she knew about love and desire. Can she handle the sparks between them, or will she get burned?
