Seattle Sharks|Сиэтлские Акулы|Саманта Уиски — 9 книг

Gage McPherson was the Seattle Shark’s best Grinder, until he shattered his shoulder last season. Time heals all wounds...but the heartbroken single dad has more than his share of trust issues. The playboy only lets one girl close to his iced-over heart—his pint-sized daughter who’s the center of his world. She’s the only thing more important to him than hockey, and he trusts no one with her...except me.

We’ve been friends since we were kids, and I love his daughter like she’s my own, so what’s the easiest solution to help Gage out? Move in and be his live-in nanny for the season. As far as she goes, the arrangement is perfect. But her drop-dead-sexy father? Frustrating on every possible level.

There is a thick, professional line drawn between us by his own hand, and despite understanding the terms, my body is practically begging him to cross it. Our chemistry is off the charts, but one misstep, and we could hurt the one person we love most. This game is all-or-nothing. Can I risk my heart on a guy who is known for the shut-out, on and off the ice?

I've got three months to prove to her this fake relationship is real...

As the Seattle Sharks number one Enforcer, nothing means more to me than hockey. I live and breathe the game.

But when my short-temper gets me into one too many late night brawls, Coach threatens to bench me if I don’t clean up my act. It’ll take more than me changing my nightlife—the media needs this bad boy to go good.

Paige Turner—the gorgeous, off-limits best friend of my bro’s fiancée—has the solution.

About to take over as acting CEO of her family’s multi-billion-dollar corporation, she’ll have to sign a morality clause basically kissing any wild-life she wanted goodbye. Her proposition?

I, Rory Jackson—the panty dropper and bed hopper of the Sharks—give her an exclusive relationship for three entire months. Her wholesome image will only brighten my dark one in the press’ eyes, and I can help her check off some wicked naughty tasks on her very specific dirty-girl bucket list.

If I screw up and get arrested again, she’ll lose everything she’s worked her entire life for, but what terrifies me most? At the end of the three months, I won’t want to let her go, and with that morality clause—she can't keep me.

I've got three months to prove to her this fake relationship is real...

One night.

It was supposed to be one wild night with my friend—a fiercely sexy chef.

Now I can’t stop thinking about her.
Can’t stop craving her flavor.

And that was before I found out our no-strings night resulted in two little pink lines.

As the number one Winger for the Seattle Sharks and the last man standing in our bad-boy trio, the only lines I’m familiar with are red and blue.

But while hockey is my life, Jeannine branded herself on my heart. She’s in so deep I couldn’t cut her out even if I wanted to.

What do I want? Everything.

She wants to do this on her own—she’s never needed a man. The little bundle swelling her gorgeous body isn’t going to change that.

I’ve got three months to change Jeanine’s mind—to prove I’m ready to trade the nightlife for dad-life, but for once, my reputation off the ice isn’t helping me score the girl. The harder I try, the higher she builds her walls.

The thought of losing them both is more terrifying than a career-ending injury.

Our clock is running down, and if I can’t prove that I’m all-in for her and our baby, our chance at forever will end in a shut-out.

This time I’m playing for keeps.

One night.

It was supposed to be one wild night with my friend—a fiercely sexy chef.

Now I can’t stop thinking about her.
Can’t stop craving her flavor.

And that was…

As a rookie, keeping up with the Seattle Shark’s starting trio is grueling work.

Trying to pretend like the Shark’s new, totally-off-limits physical therapist doesn’t make me ache? Impossible.

Because she isn’t just anyone.

Once upon a time, Chloe was mine.

Until she broke my heart.

Now she’s back in my life and Coach has forbidden any of us from pursuing her.

One look and my heart begs to claim her.

One touch and I’m on fire.

Her past is riddled with darkness and it doesn’t matter if she wants me, too.

We can’t happen.

Because we both desperately need our jobs.

But I can’t deny the heat between us, and the more time I spend with her, the more I realize she never left my heart.

As the tension coils between us, I find myself closer to losing control.

Closer to throwing everything I’ve ever worked for away…and taking a taste of the forbidden.

With my contract up for negotiation, I refuse to be sent back to the minors—not in hockey or with Chloe. This time it’s all or nothing.

As a rookie, keeping up with the Seattle Shark’s starting trio is grueling work.

I’m the Seattle Sharks’ number one goalie.
The blocker. The wall. The opposition’s worst nightmare.
I’m driven, committed to my team, and have zero time for distractions—on or off the ice.
My focus is on my new contract—one that will secure my position and take care of my family.

So, naturally, when Coach’s daughter moves back to town, he asks me to watch out for her.

Pepper is gorgeous, brilliant, hilarious, and the Sharks’ new statistician.
And my new mission puts me at her side nearly every day.

Every second I spend with her, the harder it is to keep my hands to myself.
Our chemistry is electric and no one makes me laugh like she does.
In another life, we’d be a perfect fit.

But my contract isn’t something I can risk.
Even for her.
Besides, Pepper Harris decided a long time ago she doesn’t date hockey players.

Not that it matters.
I’m the best goalie on the ice, but I’m defenseless against Pepper.
I’m falling harder than a fangirl at her favorite comic-con.
And if I can’t block my own heart—if we can’t stop this addiction—we’ll both lose everything.

I’m the Seattle Sharks’ number one goalie.
The blocker. The wall. The opposition’s worst nightmare.
I’m driven, committed to my team, and have zero time for distractions—on or…

I’m the Seattle Sharks’ power forward.
The rising star. The sniper. The skater.
On the ice, I’m invincible.
Off the ice, there’s room in my heart for only one girl:
my five-year-old niece.

When my addict sister leaves Hannah on my doorstep with nothing but a backpack and a note full of excuses, my entire life shifts.
Playoffs or not, keeping my niece out of foster care is my first priority.

I need help...from anyone but her.

Ivy Harris.
Coach’s other daughter.
Gorgeous, smart-mouthed, reckless.
Hannah’s new BFF and favorite babysitter.
Ivy’s been under my skin since she clicked into my life on four-inch heels.
The same heels I just caught Hannah playing dress-up in.

But Ivy’s never been able to color inside the lines,
and with Hannah’s future hanging in the balance,
I can’t chance stepping outside them—no matter how badly I want to.
Ivy and I fight like pros until our mouths are too busy kissing.

The line between enemy and lover is blurry, and if we can’t figure out what we mean to each other, it will cost us everything in the end...including Hannah.

I’m the Seattle Shark’s newest Bruiser.
The fighter. The protector.
On the ice, I end the battles others start.
Off the ice, I’m just trying to keep my name out of the tabloids.
After all, that’s what got me traded from Ontario.

Donating to a Big Brother program for the good press was easy.
But then I meet Elliot, the ten-year-old spitfire who lives for sarcasm and hockey, and I can’t help but volunteer to mentor her.
That is, if her mom will let me.

I’ve wanted Shea Lansing from the moment we met last season.
She’s an incredible single mom.
Sexy, sharp, stubborn, and hates hockey almost as much as she despises violence:
A.K.A….me.
Her past is darker than mine, and she’ll do anything to ensure it never touches her daughter.

Mentoring Elliot has Shea and I crossing paths—and wires.
Our connection is electric. Undeniable. Unstoppable.

But when her past comes back to haunt her,
I’ll have to lay everything on the line to keep them.
I’m used to violence on the ice, but fighting for what I love?
That’s a whole different kind of game.
One that could ruin us in the end.

I’m the Seattle Sharks’ power player.
Some call me the Wheeler.
That’s because I score on and off the ice more than any other Shark.
Well, until her. The one girl I’ve wanted for years.
And her brother just convinced me to hire her as my personal assistant.

Faith Gentry.
Sharp. Sexy. Funny as hell.
My best friend’s little sister.
Now that I’m her boss, she’s twice as off-limits.
And I’m twice as screwed.

Having Faith near me 24/7?
It’s a torture I never knew existed.
She sees me like no one else, and that mouth of hers? More than kissable.
Our banter is quick, our chemistry hotter than hell, but if we cross that line—

Her brother will kill me.
I’ll lose my best friend, rip our hockey team apart,
And I could lose my stay-in-the-states insurance.

My wheeler past could to turn everything I’ve worked for to ash.
But the more time I spend with Faith, the harder I fall.
And this might be worth taking everything I have coming to me.

I’m the Seattle Shark’s Defender.
Lightning on the ice with a dedication to my team no one can shake.
At least, I thought so.
Before her.

Harper Thompson.
Gorgeous. Awkward. Genius.
She’s developing a new helmet that will revolutionize safety standards
And I’ve just volunteered to be her personal guinea pig.
My reasoning lies in my past and who I lost…
And who this helmet could still save.

Her mouth drives me wild and her mind brings me to my knees.
But she’s moving across the country, and I bleed Seattle Shark green.
The ticking time bomb can’t stop the electricity between us, or the fact that my heart wants her more than the jersey on my back.

My contract and her lab are on the line if we’re discovered.
One mistake and we’ll both lose everything we’ve ever worked for.
But success means walking away from the best thing that’s ever happened to me.
Harper Thompson’s the one hit I never saw coming.
