      The broodiest goalkeeper in the Premier League meets his match in a radiant knitting influencer in this sexy grumpy/sunshine sports romance. CAMERON HASTINGS is running from the paparazzi when he crashes into a mystery girl with bright eyes and lavender hair. A smile from her leaves him smitten, and they agree to one night with no strings attached. To his surprise, she moves across the hall from him in London. Despite being the best American keeper in the Premier League, he’s focused on proving himself to his new team and winning the championship. However, he finds himself wanting more than just that one night. DAPHNE QUINN is embracing her Yes Year, stepping out of her comfort zone and moving to London. The man she spent that magical evening with is now a scowling figure in all black, far from the charming stranger she remembers. Determined to create a safe space for her online knitting community, she tries to avoid him. Yet, chance encounters draw them together, and for the first time, she feels empowered to live life on her own terms. But how can she navigate her feelings for a man who guards his heart so fiercely? This story is the first in The Hastings series, featuring interconnected standalone sports romances about the Hastings siblings, heirs to sports royalty.

    • Nico Navarro and I are friends. His signature grin and playfulness are charming, except when you’re on the receiving end of his self-absorbed personality. For years, I’ve dealt with Nico’s incessant flirting by keeping my occasional fantasies about him strictly between me, my keyboard, and my vibrator. We’re both players and not interested in settling down. He’s never been in love, and I refuse to commit to someone again. Besides, Nico is my best friend’s brother-in-law, so he’s strictly off-limits. Just. Friends. But when I suddenly lose my job, fail a class, and a man faints inside me—yes, inside me—all rationality falls by the wayside. One out-of-character decision later, I find myself on an international adventure with the irresponsible playboy. Our spontaneous vacation is filled with interrogations, a steamy arrangement, and the uncovering of my decade-old secret. The rules I have to protect my heart quickly crumble between Nico’s relentless obsession with me and our lavish travel destinations. Can I let myself love again or will our summer fling end up in flames?
