Mabel Quinn and Ryder Finch aren’t rivals—they’re lifelong frenemies, fellow pro snowboarders, and the children of a pair of legendary athletes and best friends. They’ve trained together, traveled together, and annoyed each other for years. But being in love? Absolutely not… right? Until one impulsive night in Vegas—and a few too many drinks—ends with an Elvis-officiated wedding neither of them remembers. With the Winter Games weeks away and the media watching their every move, a public fallout could jeopardize both their careers. Their solution: stay “married” until Milan. Keeping up the act should be easy. Except Ryder’s been head-over-heels for Mabel for years, and Mabel is suddenly seeing Ryder in a way she hasn’t allowed herself to before. Now they’re sharing a home, sharing secrets, and sharing far too many moments that no longer feel like pretend. If they’re not careful, this fake marriage might turn into something real… and the biggest risk they’ve ever taken on the slopes.

Elliot Baker knows the rules of the game—on the field and off. As the San Francisco Redwoods’ star long kicker, he’s got a golden leg, a winning smile, and a plan: enjoy the city’s nightlife, have some fun, and keep his heart out of it. Then he meets Alex Holmes. NHL goalie for the San Francisco Thunder. Straight. Gorgeous. Impossible to ignore. One kiss changes everything. Not for Elliot—he’s kissed plenty of men before—but for Alex, whose team wins their next game. Suddenly, Alex is convinced that Elliot is his new good-luck charm. The deal is simple: keep things casual, keep winning. But casual turns complicated fast. Between stolen moments, late-night texts, and the kind of chemistry that can’t be faked, Elliot finds himself wanting more. Alex tells himself that this is just about superstition… So why does he keep looking at Elliot like he’s more than a lucky break? With their teams on their backs and their hearts on the line, Elliot and Alex are about to discover that love plays by its own rules.

The mountain was meant to be my refuge—a quiet place to breathe, to let down my guard, to finally be me. But then he shows up. The man I’ve been secretly crushing on. The one I’ve watched from afar, convinced he could never feel the same. Now he’s here, and the silence I once craved is filled with stolen glances, lingering touches, and the kind of laughter that feels like home. I bought this land on the mountain to be alone. But maybe what I needed… was him.

Luke Cannon, former quarterback of the San Francisco Redwoods, thinks his career-ending injury is rock bottom. But he couldn't be more wrong. In a tragic accident, he loses his only family: his older sister, Gigi. As next of kin, Luke takes charge of his three young nieces but he can't do it alone. Enter his best friend, retired NFL quarterback Dean McKenna. Together, they helm the messy, beautiful chaos of raising small children. But when ghosts from Luke's past come haunting, threatening the life that Gigi helped him build, Luke and Dean do what's necessary to keep their found family together. They get married. Long-buried feelings and burning lust have no place in their convenient arrangement and the spouses navigate their growing attraction while centering their kids' safety. From hell, they created heaven and they won't give up without a fight. Because everywhere they look is their love, and their family that needs them.

Kira McKenna has almost everything she wants. A career she loves, friends who double as a cheer squad, and a family that always has her back. The only thing missing? Ownership of Spin Sync, the fitness company she helped build from the ground up. So when the business is sold out from under her—and to the sexy stranger she shared one very memorable wedding hookup with—Kira is beyond furious. Warren Yates has money, power, and a soft spot for investing in the future. Buying Spin Sync makes perfect sense…until he realizes it also means going head-to-head with Kira, the fiery fitness instructor who seems determined to make his life miserable. She thinks he’s her biggest betrayal. He thinks her anger is ridiculously hot. And when they’re forced to work together, the sparks between them start looking a lot less like hate…and a lot more like foreplay.

I'm so tired of being alone. Tired of lonely nights and cold mornings. Tired of feeling like there's something wrong with me. I didn't come to this party expecting to find something. I definitely didn't expect to find someone. But now that I have, I can't wait to unwrap my Christmas present.

And Dottie can’t seem to tamp down the niggling curiosity in her brain that wants to know what might happen if she looks into the eyes of the boy she left behind when she was younger one more time. ‘Tis the damn season, right?
