_____

A college sports romance about a women's soccer star and her surly lumberjack lookalike classmate, complete with a matchmaking professor, juvenile pranks, and a smoking slow burn...

Ryder
Why she hates me, I don't know. What I do know is that Willa Sutter is the kind of chaos I do not need in my tidy life. Wild hair, wilder eyes. Bee-stung lips that should be illegal. A temper that makes the devil seem friendly. And she has turned our Business Mathematics course into a gladiator arena. . .

Willa
Rather than give me the lecture notes I missed like every other professor, I have been told to get them from the silent, surly flannel-wearing mountain man sitting next to me in class. Well, I tried. And what did I get from Ryder Bergman? Ignored.

As a female soccer player, I've battled men before. But with Ryder, it's war. And victory is going to taste so, so sweet...

Ren
I'm a player on the team, she's on staff, and as long as we work together, dating is off-limits. Frankie won't be here forever - she's headed for bigger, better things. I just hope that when she leaves the team and I tell her how I feel, she won't want to leave me behind, too.

Frankie
Before I got wise, I would have tripped over myself to get a guy like Ren, but with my diagnosis, I've learned what I am to most people in my life - a problem, not a person. Now, opening my heart to anyone is the last thing I'm prepared to do. And not even a guy as sweet as Ren can change that...

A forbidden love sports romance about a nerdy, late-blooming hockey star, and his tough cookie coworker who keeps both her soft side and her autism diagnosis to herself.

Despite my meddling siblings and a week in each other's constant company, this trip somehow gets us working through the trouble in paradise. But when we leave paradise and return to the real world, will trouble find us again?

Since then, steering clear of Rooney has been impossible, and the woman who was once avoidable has become the last thing I needed: temptingly within reach.

Rooney
Axel Bergman is a gorgeous grump who doesn't have the time of day for me. Somehow, I've kept my crush hidden ... well, until I kissed him.

My life is a mess, and the last thing I need is to embarrass myself further with the man who avoids me like it's his job rather than painting modern masterpieces . But it seems the universe has a different plan as we unexpectedly find our paths - and problems - converging. And we've come up with one very unexpected solution...

Gavin
We've been teammates for two years, but it feels like Oliver Bergman's been on my last nerve for a lifetime. To make matters worse, he's obscenely attractive.

Avoiding Oliver has been my survival tactic on and off the field. But when Coach drops the bomb that we're now co-captains, avoiding him becomes impossible, and keeping the truth from him is harder than ever.

Oliver
Life was great until soccer legend Gavin Hayes joined the team. He's a giant - albeit gorgeous - grump who lives to rain on my parade. I've sworn off pranks so, rather than settle our differences the Bergman way, I've been killing Gavin with kindness... Just one problem: it's killing me as well.

Coach has given us an ultimatum: put an end to our enmity or say goodbye to being captains. I'm prepared to make nice, but the last thing I expect is to discover an explosive attraction we can't ignore...

An enemies-to-lovers, age gap sports romance about an upbeat rising soccer star with anxiety and his curmudgeonly veteran teammate who lives with chronic pain.

Brace yourself for longing, laughter, and a swoony slow-burn in this brothers best friend sports romance about scoring the love of your life when you least expect to.

Ziggy
I'm the youngest player on the National Soccer team, the baby of my family, and thoroughly sick of being underestimated, so I've decided to take matters into my own hands . . .

My brother's teammate and best friend Seb needs to save his reputation. I want to give mine an edge. So I propose a fake friendship with real benefits: spending time in the public eye, my good-girl image and his bad-boy notoriety rubbing off on each other. But will it be as easy as I think to keep him in the (fake) friend zone?

Sebastian
My hockey career and sponsorships are in jeopardy, so when Ziggy Bergman proposes a public "friendship" to rehab my image, it's an offer that even a self-respecting reprobate like myself can't refuse.

It's simple: fake a friendship with Ziggy, fix my reputation, and get back to hockey - the one and only thing I love . . . until I find myself falling for the last person I should be: my best friend's sister.

_____

A room-mance for the books in this tender, steamy story about unexpectedly finding love and being brave enough to let it revise life’s narrative in the final book in the beloved Bergman Brothers series.

Tallulah
I’ve got a massive case of writer’s block and I've been kicked out of my apartment, with no end to my misery in sight. At least, until Viggo Bergman makes me an offer I can’t refuse: he needs help running his romance bookstore; I need help with my thriller’s romantic subplot.

We’ll swap skills and cohabitate for convenience. I’m a cold-hearted cynic, he’s a heart-eyed romantic. We barely get along. But who says roommate-coworkers need to be friends?

Viggo
Life’s hard as a hopeless romantic still waiting for my forever love. Between running my romance bookstore and a romance book club, coaching kids' soccer, and adopting a household of pets, my chaotic life seems to make finding love downright improbable. But when I bump into Tallulah Clarke, hope seems like it's finally on the horizon.

Except that sharing a home and life with Tallulah challenges everything I thought I knew about love, and reveals the plot twist I never saw coming: happily ever after is here already, right under our roof.
