I'm her brother's best friend, and for the past ten years, I've also been Addison McKenzie's dirty little secret. My pro-hockey player lifestyle kept me from her, but I thought we had a good thing going. Burning up the sheets whenever I visited home worked well for us. Or so I thought. When a season-ending injury sends me back to Starlight Cove, I find out she thinks of me as nothing more than a mistake. She's trying her hardest to ignore my presence, but being snowed in together is making that difficult. So is sharing a bed. Old habits die hard, and it's no surprise we fall right back into each other. Undeniable chemistry was never our problem, though. Making it last in the real world was. But I've been in love with Addison for years. And I have no intention of giving up on us now.

Tessa Ever AfterNo one's off-limits for this playboy...except his best friend's little sister. Jason's the very definition of trouble, but Tessa can't get him out of her mind...or her bed. And every day she spends by his side only serves to keep her from the one thing she wants more than anything-a happily ever after. Mine for Tonight (a bonus story)Paige Bennett thought all she had in store for the night was some girl time with her besties, but when they bail early-on her and on the evening-she catches a ride home with the one guy she knows she shouldn't want. And if that isn't bad enough, she invites him in for a whole different kind of ride. Paige in ProgressPaige doesn't want or need a Happily Ever After, but after the best one-night stand she's ever had becomes her new neighbor, things get complicated. Adam, her best friend's surrogate brother, moves in across the hall, and what was supposed to be a single night of fun turns into an every-night stand she can't forget. Our Love UnhingedWhen her knight in shining armor pops the question, Winter says yes. Of course she does. But two years isn't long in the grand scheme of things, and certainly not enough time to erase the memories of the past. Sometimes, even the greatest love can't silence fears.
