Елена Хантинг — библиография

Sometimes I need an escape from the demands, the puck bunnies, and the notoriety that come with being an NHL team captain. I just want to be a normal guy for a few weeks. So when I leave Chicago for some peace and quiet, the last thing I expect is for a gorgeous woman to literally fall into my lap on a flight to Alaska. Even better, she has absolutely no idea who I am. Lainey is the perfect escape from my life. My plan for seclusion becomes a monthlong sex fest punctuated with domestic bliss. But it ends just as abruptly as it began. When I’m called away on a family emergency, I realize too late that I have no way to contact Lainey. A year later, a chance encounter throws Lainey and me together again. But I still have a lie hanging over my head, and Lainey’s keeping secrets of her own. With more than lust at stake, the truth may be our game changer.

Алекс Уотерс – капитан легендарных чикагских «Ястребов» и один из лучших игроков НХЛ. Он хорош собой, безупречно сложен, а также умен и начитан, однако о последнем знают немногие. Таблоиды создали Алексу репутацию типичного плейбоя, и его это вполне устраивает.
У Виолетты Холл есть причины не доверять хоккеистам, поэтому Алекс Уотерс ее нисколько не интересует, пока она не обнаруживает то, что Алекс предпочитает скрывать от всех.
Из-за нелепой случайности Виолетта проводит ночь в номере Алекса и узнает, что он не только высококлассный хоккеист, но и очень одаренный любовник.
Виолетта убеждена, что это их первая и последняя встреча. У Алекса, похоже, другое мнение. Он звонит, пишет сообщения, присылает письма и необычные подарки. Виолетте все сложнее игнорировать и самого Алекса, и свои чувства к нему, но ее беспокоит его репутация. Она не хочет и не будет с ней мириться.

When Dillion Stitch left her hometown, she had no intention of going back. But when her brother gets into trouble, Dillion reluctantly agrees to return home to take her place at the family business. Being back in Pearl Lake after all these years feels familiar, but also brings a few surprises. She's quick to notice that someone new has shown up at the cottage next door. Dillion gets more than an eyeful when she goes to check out the newcomer and meets Donovan "Van" Firestone—her beloved neighbor's grandson—in all his unclothed glory. Having gotten off to a rocky start, it's not long before they begin bickering with each other all over town. All that back and forth inevitably sparks an undeniable attraction. But Dillion's family has issues, Van's family resents him, and neither Dillion nor Van feels truly at ease in the small town. For these Pearl Lake exiles, home isn't just where the heart is—it's where things get complicated.

После расставания с парнем Стиви переезжает в пустующий дом своего брата. Дом так хорош, что даже разбитое сердце оплакивать в нем немного приятнее. К тому же Стиви ждет новая интересная работа, она молодой физиотерапевт-реабилитолог. Единственный минус, это сосед напротив – здоровенный нахал-красавчик, что любит разгуливать в нижнем белье, да еще на дух не переносит ее родного брата. Впрочем, и брат, и сосед – спортсмены, и Стиви не удивлена их соперничеству. Правда, сосед ей чуть-чуть (совсем) симпатичен, и это осложняет ситуацию. А уж когда он вызывается помочь ее карьере… Словом, у Стиви в жизни полнейший бардак. Не хватало только бывшего, который намерен ее вернуть.

From New York Times bestselling author Helena Hunting comes a new romance about trading secrets, breaking the rules, and playing for keeps. My name is Ryan Kingston, and I’m a rule follower. I’ve never been in a fistfight. I always obey the speed limit. I don’t get drunk, and I definitely don’t pick up random women at bars. Except the night I found out that my whole existence has been a lie. I got drunk. And picked up a stranger.Her name was Queenie, and she was everything I’m not: reckless, impulsive, and chaotic. We did shots and traded secrets. And ended up naked at my place. She left me a thank-you note in the morning and her panties as a parting gift. But no way to contact her. Six weeks later I’m sitting in the first official team meeting of the season, and there she is. I neglected to mention that I’m the goalie for Seattle’s NHL team. And Queenie? Turns out she’s the general manager’s daughter.

When I joined Seattle’s NHL expansion team, I thought it was the start of something great. But nothing ever goes the way you expect. Take my introduction to my new neighbor. She came rolling in on the hot mess express at midnight, making a racket while she tried to get into my team captain’s apartment. Did I mention that he’s married to a woman who definitely was not her? Imagine my surprise when I end up with an injury that has me out of the game for weeks, and she’s the one to offer to help me. I should probably add that she’s not the captain’s mistress. She’s his sexy, pastel-haired younger sister. So we come up with an arrangement: she rehabs me so that I can get back on the ice sooner, and she can add a professional athlete that isn’t her brother to her client list. Seems simple enough. As long as I can keep my hands to myself and my hormones in check.

В самолете он сталкивается с Лейни, шарф которой цепляется за колесико чемодана так, что едва не душит хозяйку. Эр Джей рад оказать ей помощь, а еще больше рад, что она не признала в нем знаменитость. Он даже представляется ей фермером, который разводит коз, и предлагает продолжить непринужденное знакомство. Но все выходит не так гладко, как хотелось бы. Эр Джей еще вспомнит об этом эпизоде спустя полтора года! Потому что у него теперь БОЛЬШИЕ проблемы. Да и…

As an pro hockey player, relationships haven’t been my thing.
Shrouded in secrecy and speculation, they never last very long.
But then that’s what happens when you require an NDA before the first date. Until Charlene.
She’s like a firefly.
She’s elusive, and if you catch her she’ll burn bright, but keeping her trapped dulls her fire and dims her beauty. I caught her.
And as much as I might want to keep her, I’ll never put the lid on her jar.
Not at the risk of losing her. So I've let her set the rules in our relationship.
But as long hidden secrets expose us both, I discover exactly how fragile Charlene is, and how much I need her.
We’re all broken.
We’re all messed up.
Some more than others.
Me more than most.

I’m notorious for parties and excess. I have the most penalty minutes in the league. I get into the most fights. I take the most hits. I’m a player on and off the ice.
This is who I am.
Until her – I was her first kiss at a party she shouldn’t have been at. I shouldn’t want her because I’m toxic and I know it.
But I want her more than anything.
I should leave her alone because she’s all the good things in this world.
But I won’t be able to walk away. Because I don’t know how to stop once I’m already falling.

Our last weekend away before hockey season starts was supposed to be fun. All our friends are piling into Alex and Violet’s lake house. I’m so excited to hang out with Randy, even though he’s been acting a little strange. No weekend is complete without accidental wardrobe malfunctions, typical Violet inspired overshares, and a whole lot of hijinks for the perfect weekend getaway. Except sneaking around for some private time might prove more difficult than I’m anticipating.

I should be over the moon to get married to Alex Waters, aka hockey’s most sought after player.
I want to marry the man who told me I was his triple word score in Scrabble.
Alex is the whole package and more.
Literally.
Like his package is out of this world. Total world record holder material.
I can’t wait to be his wife. Except every time the topic of wedding comes up, I break out in hives. I’m supposed to walk down the aisle in front of hundreds of people, and confess my undying love with so many eyeballs locked on me. I just know I’m going to say something stupid. I want what we have to be forever but I might be totally pucked.

I’m not a casual sex girlie. But after seven years in a bad relationship, I’m willing to give it a shot. And who better to try it with than my best friend’s boyfriend’s best friend? Pro hockey player, Randy Ballistic, just might live up to his last name on the ice and in the bedroom. My best friend and teammate has a new girlfriend. And she just happens to have a seriously feisty, extra-hot best friend on the rebound. I’m more than happy to be Lily’s companion in her time of need. But casual sex is only casual until those pesky things called emotions get involved.
Someone’s about to get pucked over.

Except I might be cursed. Bad stuff just happens to me.
I fell asleep only for someone to draw genitals on my face? Pictures go viral.
Got a spider bite, should be fine, right? It's close to my most prized body part, aka now melons.
Found the perfect woman? She’s my team captain’s younger sister.
I’m a goner for Sunny. Obsessed. Head over heels. I will do whatever it takes to have her forever, even if her brother does try to remove me from this earthly plane.

A standalone, brother's teammate hockey romance.
I just snuck out of pro hockey’s most notorious playboy’s bed last night. I have zero interest in legendary hockey player Alex Waters or his pretty, beat-up face and rock-hard six-pack abs. Having a famous pro athlete for a stepbrother means I’m aware that a lot of these guys are notorious f-boys, therefore all hockey games I attend are under duress. That is until Alex starts talking books to me.
Then he becomes more than just a hot body with the face to match.
And I discover just how good Alex is with the hockey stick in his pants. I consider our night of orgasmic magic as just that: one night.
But Alex starts to call.
And text.
And email and send extravagant—and quirky—gifts. Suddenly, he's too difficult to ignore, and nearly impossible not to like. The problem?
Alex is a total player.
And me?
I don’t want to be part of the game.

Ever have a defining life moment you wish you could do over? Harley Spark has one. The time she almost kissed the widowed father of the toddler she nannied for. It was so bad they moved across the state and she never saw them again. Fast forward seven years and she’s totally over it. At least she thinks she is. Until Gavin Rhodes and his adorable now nine-year-old daughter, Peyton, reappear at a princess-themed birthday party hosted by Spark House, Harley’s family’s event hotel. Despite trying to avoid the awkwardness of the situation, she can’t help but notice how unbearably sexy he looks in a tutu. Add to that a spontaneous hives breakout, and it’s clear she’s not even remotely over the mortification of her egregious error all those years ago. Except Gavin seems oblivious to her inner turmoil. So much so that he suggests they get together for lunch. For Peyton’s sake, of course. It’s the perfect opportunity to heal old wounds. Or it could just reopen them. This is one of those times Harley wishes she could see the future… With her signature charm and sense of humor, bestselling author Helena Hunting creates a novel about love, family, and second chances in Make a Wish.
