I'm sarcasm with a messy bun. He's a sweetheart with a slap shot. Sparks were one thing—those fireworks, though? Yeah… no one warned me about those. Mabel Returning to Maple Falls wasn't part of my five-year plan—or my backup plan. Or any plan, really. But here I am, back in my quirky...

Owning the River City Renegades was supposed to be a dream—power suits, big wins, nothing but control. Instead, I'm juggling PR disasters, an opinionated board, and a very public reminder that I'm single. The last thing I need is our team captain, Campbell Stockton, making my pulse skip like a puck on bad ice. He's charming, infuriating, and completely off-limits. I built my empire on keeping business and pleasure in separate zones—so why does one look from him make me want to break every rule?

Expecting solitude from my new home shouldn't be the exception. But when you move next door to the grumpiest human on earth, what's a girl to do? Austin Porter may be a former football star, but this man does not have an attitude of gratitude. When the strip of land that divides our properties becomes a literal bone of contention, we finally find something we can both agree on: war. Only, I don't want to fight. I want to show this man that sometimes, the greatest comebacks happen once you're off the field.

Coaching the River City Renegades is exactly where I want to be—hockey, small-town charm, and zero drama…but there's him. Dixon Andrews. The team's broody, infuriating, gorgeous goalie. He's got a jawline that could cut glass and a grudge he's pinned on me for something I didn't even do. Now, he's making my life turbulent one smoldering glare at a time.

Life as an NFL player has always been fast-paced, but nothing prepared me for becoming the guardian of my godson, Duncan. With his grandmother contesting custody, I need to prove that I'm a steadfast influence who's not going anywhere, and there's one sure-fire way to show that: get engaged.

As the assistant to the coach of the River City Renegades, my life is a whirlwind of schedules, crisis management, and saving the day when things go sideways. I love my job, but sometimes I wonder if there's more for me out there. Then, I discovered my dad needs help. I'll do anything to support him—even if it means stepping out of my comfort zone. So when the team's publicist decides Ollie Decker, my long-time friend and the Renegades' star defenseman, needs a fake girlfriend to boost his image, I volunteer. After all, it's just pretend, it pays, and who knows Ollie better than me?

I'm pouring all my savings into launching my own catering business, so the last thing I need is distraction. Even if he is six feet five inches tall, plays ice hockey, and is probably one of the most intriguing, and also maddening, people I've met. Ever.

Etta: Moving to Sweetkiss Creek was supposed to bring me closer to family and offer a fresh start. Instead, it feels like everything is spiraling out of control. First, there's my mischievous dog who has a knack for escaping and ending up at the police station. Then there's my ex, who has found away to give me a headache even from miles away. But the cherry on top of this chaotic sundae is Zac Wright, the infuriatingly charming man who also happens to be my nemesis.

The realization that you've fallen for your best friend is, for me, pretty scary. It's not that Reid is all the way in the stratosphere out of my league, it's more like I want to get it together so I'm not the one who feels so inadequate. But when I take ten steps forward, I'm shoved twenty steps back and left wondering if we'd be a good match in the end. And I want the best for my friend . . . even if that means it's not me.

I had it all; a loving marriage, an adorable dog, and plans to build the home of our dreams in idyllic Sweetkiss Creek. Moving here meant we focused on us, and starting a family, but those dreams came crashing down when Spencer made the choice to go back to Hollywood and left me flying solo.
