Baxter Morgan is a football god. He was made to pile drive, and a lifetime of pent-up rage has him coiled to pounce. Olive Hampton is the girl next door. Their family lives are a tattered mess and for years, they’ve relied on each other for everything.

On paper, I've got it all…an amazing group of friends, a rabid fan base for my romance novels, and a sweetheart of a husband. Except, these days, his heart doesn’t seem so sweet. He also doesn’t seem to understand my career…or maybe me at all. Teddy didn’t start out as a stuffy suit. It just sort of happened, somewhere between his MBA and his big promotion and our failed attempts at starting a family. From the time we met on the soccer field, Teddy and I have been inseparable. Only Teddy hasn’t kicked a goal in a long time and he doesn't really not unhappy.

I had it all–speed, skill, and a one-way ticket to the pros. But one bad hit shattered my career and left me with a busted leg, a bruised ego, and no clue what comes next. Enter Thora, my no-nonsense research partner who’s too smart, too fierce, and too beautiful for a washed-up guy like me. She’s got a sharp mind, big dreams, and zero patience for my pity party. Plus, she sees straight through my game face to all the broken parts of me, and instead of running away she challenges me to do better.

A fierce almost-nurse who doesn’t have time for her annoyingly hot instructor. A team dentist who moves in with a hockey player for a fake revenge fling—and catches very real feelings. A midwife who thought one night would be enough to get a certain Crawford man out of her system. Spoiler: it wasn’t. From classrooms to locker rooms to the quirky streets of Oak Creek, these women are brilliant, busy, and absolutely not looking for love. Too bad love doesn’t follow bedside protocol.

I can't tear my eyes away from her. She's incredible, the best soccer midfielder I've ever seen. Raw passion on the field. A hundred percent my type, but a thousand percent a distraction I can't afford right now. I've dated other athletes before. We're all too focused on our game for anything meaningful off the field. And usually, I prefer it that way. But she's all muscle and grit, with fierce eyes that let me know she'd wreck my body. And I'd love every second.

I don't do relationships, but when a gorgeous bartender presses her chest in my face on New Year's Eve, I take it as a sign that maybe I should bend my rules. I’ve been under so much pressure lately, between my agent and my soccer prospects and my abusive biological father trying to extort money I don’t even have. What better way to distract myself from the pressures of going pro than to get under a woman whose curves could make a venus statue jealous? Fern is everything a man could ask for: unbearably sexy, brilliantly smart, and oh-so-responsive in bed.

Out of Bounds delivers powerful athletes who meet their matches in the most unexpected places. A professional soccer player willing to sacrifice everything to protect the woman who once broke his heart. A steamy one-night stand becomes a forbidden campus affair that could destroy futures. And a broken champion finds healing in the one woman who won't let him give up on himself.

Cara Moreno—my biggest regret—just signed with the women's soccer team in my city. I tell myself to keep my distance...but I can't stay away. She says the most powerful man in the sport is set on destroying her career. That behind closed doors, he's hurting her and everything she's worked for. I doubted her once before and rejected her. Now, I'll do anything to make things right and protect what’s ours. Exposing the truth means risking my career. But how can I chase my dreams knowing hers are slipping away?

When a snowstorm strands sports agent Brian Klein in a charming Pittsburgh bookshop, he fears his holiday is ruined. But curvy store owner Noa Bishop has a smile brighter than any blackout, a spare fuzzy sweater, and a soft spot for silver-haired strangers with too many phone notifications. The blizzard knocks out the power, so Noa shares her tea, her traditions, and her sticky-sweet ideas for fun with jelly donuts.

Why choose between enemies-to-lovers, workplace romance, and second chances when you can have them all? This smart, sizzling series follows the Brady family--brilliant, brooding engineers who think they have life figured out until the right partners prove them wonderfully wrong.

I am tired of people asking me how hard it is to be a woman in engineering. My career is the least of my worries. Dealing with my family and personal relationships? That's the hard part. I proposition a hottie, just to tune it all out for a bit. The fling blows my mind, but leaves me with unexpected consequences. By the time I meet the guy again, he's a different person, and I'm carrying a huge secret.

Zack Brady doesn’t do relationships. He does calculations. Her name is Nicole Kennedy. She’s loud and crass, and has no time for nonsense. She certainly doesn’t have time for a mysterious trench swallowing her yard. To make matters worse, the grouchy engineer who shows up to fix it is the same jerk she’s forced to run beside during the corporate relay race her boss insisted she run.

Giving in to their attraction could fracture their connection with their adult children. But staying apart might mean they miss their last chance at love…

To get a break from my family, I decide to move out and answer an online ad for a roommate. What could go wrong? For starters, my roommate turns out to be…not a dude. A smoking hot finance chick. But this is fine. We can be friends who live together. I just need to ignore the simmering lust that clouds my vision.

Liam Brady has no chill. He’s a guy who irons his underwear and checks people’s math for a living. When his family business hires a creative writer for a marketing project, he is not prepared to spend time with a woman who keeps candy in her pockets and always asks people uncomfortable questions.

Kellen Brady is just fine, thank you. He runs his family business. He cooks family dinners and takes his vitamins. He even gets plenty of exercise. When his daughter suggests he needs to get back out there, Kellen brushes off her comment and gets back to his work instead. Safer that way. Elizabeth Burns feels like she's waking up from a 20-year sleep. Decades of infertility, then raising an Autistic teen have taken their toll, and when Elizabeth realizes her distant husband is also a dirtbag, she shakes off the fog and heads for a new home and a new life.

My life revolves around just one thing: my daughter. I don’t have the time or energy for anything else—not my foolish dream of an acting career and definitely not the annoying woman who opened a gym in the warehouse behind my garage. Piper’s a menace to society, between her loud music, hurling weights around like a shot putter, and her building that is definitely not up to code. Unfortunately, my kid thinks she’s the best thing since unlimited screen-time. It’s getting harder to avoid Piper when my daughter keeps going over there to ask about hair braids and sports teams.

It was just supposed to be a marriage on paper. Koa needed a path to citizenship and I needed the money to open Bridges and Bitters. All I've ever wanted is to take care of my sisters and run my own bar, my way. What did I care if I had a technical husband? A husband with too many dimples and more charm than he should have… So when he rolled into town after five years to deal with some paperwork, he's turned everything upside-down. Sure, Koa is charismatic and fun, but he's also a nomad. I don't have time for vacations and I don't know how to play games.

People always like me. It's kind of my thing. All the employees at my tech startup think I'm the best boss, and the community partners and investors I woo not only trust, but adore me. Everyone likes me, except him. I may have been caught off guard when I accidentally insulted AJ Trachtenberg, but I'm pulling out all the stops trying to make it up to him…and it’s not working. Offering his students a swanky field trip doesn't win him over—it only seems to make him grumpier.

Four people who hide their secret yearning for connection. They’ve all been alone for so long, they believe a happily ever after is simply out of reach. But fate intervenes, bringing these weathered souls together and igniting a spark they never thought possible.
