Ace Ambrose is the playboy captain of the Harrisburg Hawks. I’m the Blue Line Matchmaker who fixes hockey players’ love lives—including his.
But when he rejects every woman I recommend and offers me two million dollars to play his perfect fiancée, I do what any sensible businesswoman would do.
I accept the contract.
Two weeks with his family. One fake engagement. And very clear rules: no kissing, no hooking up, and absolutely no falling in love.
Until Ace looks at me like I belong to him.
Suddenly, I’m in serious trouble.
Because somewhere along the way, my heart has stopped treating this like a contract…
And our fake engagement is feeling dangerously real.
This is book 1 in the brand-new small town hockey romance series, Blue Line Matchmaking, by USA Today Bestselling Author, Elise Faber.

When she’s not writing about hockey or cheering on the Sharks, she’s playing it—her favorite date nights happen on the ice with her husband. Off the rink, you’ll usually find her soaking in the bathtub with a book or bingeing reality TV. Elise lives in Northern California with her husband and two teenage boys, and firmly believes happily-ever-afters are non-negotiable.

When you kiss the one person who should be off-limits, blame it on the mistletoe.
Emily
The whole town turned on Miles after the crash that killed my boss's granddaughter. They didn't care that he hadn't been driving. Still, he brought a peace offering to the bookstore's Christmas Eve party, and my boss told him he should have been the one who died.
No one defended him. Not even me.
But I chased him outside and kissed him under the mistletoe. It started as sympathy, then turned electric. When he told me he was leaving forever, I gave him a book to help him heal.
Years later, Miles comes home with a tattoo inspired by that very book. And somehow, he knows I wrote it.
Worse, he wants to know everything else about me.
Which makes Miles Public Enemy Number One, because the life I've built here depends on keeping the truth buried.
Miles
Kissing Emily was definitely not a mistake.
Now I'm going to prove it, even if she's not my Number One Fan.
Joining her retirement home book club? You bet.
Selling Christmas trees outside her bookstore? Absolutely—and I'll even hire the punk kid she's taken under her wing.
But the closer I get to Emily, the more I realize the girl who saved me is hiding from everyone, including herself.
This Christmas, I'm determined to find out why.

A Forbidden Father's Best Friend Romance. A Marriage of Convenience Under the Mistletoe.
He was my father's best friend, until my father betrayed him. Ten years later, he walks into my life as revenge with a wedding proposal wrapped in tinsel and bad timing.
Tristan Hamilton is the silver fox billionaire lawyer my father once called a partner. He's Scrooge personified. I'm the woman who starts decorating before the leaves have finished falling, who treats every London Christmas market like sacred ground, who believes mistletoe, fairy lights, and a cup of mulled wine can fix almost anything.
He can't stand carols, cheer, or anything wrapped in tinsel.
Yet somehow, with the advent calendar counting down and my father's law firm, now my responsibility, drowning in debt, Tristan is the one man with enough money, and enough motive, to save it before my debtors close in, before Christmas Eve arrives.
The Christmas Clause: My hand in marriage. No prenup. No exit clause, ever. The Payoff: His fortune to save my company and my family name before the holidays are over.
It's supposed to be simple. A transaction dressed up in snow and bad timing, somewhere between the fake proposal, outings to Winter Wonderland and the real wedding under a canopy of holly.
Except amid the mistletoe and the mulled wine, and a festive themed dinner on his yacht, I start wanting this marriage to be more than a deal.
Just two people trapped by a contract, thrown together for the entire festive season. His townhouse strung with fairy lights. His family's Christmas Eve lunch. His bed, snow gathering on the windowsill outside.
Then a freak snowstorm strands us overnight with nowhere to sleep but one room, one bed, one flickering fire, and a decade of tension neither of us can outrun anymore.
He thinks he can marry me under the mistletoe, ruin my father through me, and never once fall for the woman he married to do it. He's wrong.
And this Christmas, with the whole city glowing gold and the countdown to midnight running out, I intend to make him admit it.
This is Tristan Hamilton & Opal's story. There is no cheating, and a very satisfying festive-season HEA.
I walked into his restaurant needing a paycheck. Now I’m his fake wife. And if I’m not careful, I might just fall for the man I hate.
James Hamilton is grumpy. Emotionally unavailable. Impossible to reach. He’s also my best friend’s brother. The man who broke my heart without even trying. Now he’s a world-famous chef. Well known for his brilliance.
Working for him is my chance at the career of my dreams. But when he calls me out in front of his entire staff. I decide to leave. But James stops me with an offer I never saw coming. A marriage of convenience to secure the future of his culinary empire.
In return, he will pay off my debts and help my family. I should refuse. Instead, I say yes.
His rules are simple. This is a contract. There will be no feelings. No expectations. No future.
I agree to keep things strictly professional. But the longer I share his home and answer to the title of his wife, the harder it is to pretend this is just business.
And when he lets me see the man behind the reputation, I start to wonder if this fake marriage is the most real thing I have ever known...
Welcome to The Hamiltons. A new emotional romance series from international bestselling author L. Steele, where strong women go toe-to-toe with powerful billionaires… and love never follows the rules. This is James and Harper's story.
James Hamilton is a Royal Marine who has seen the darkest parts of the world, and he’s determined to keep Harper away from his shadows. But Harper isn’t looking for a perfect hero—she’s looking for him.
****
James Hamilton is the definition of off-limits. He’s cynical, jaded, and way too protective of his sister’s best friend. But when the air crackles between them, it’s clear his instincts are anything but brotherly.
READ THE EXCERPT: 📖
“He cups my cheek and lowers his head. I close my eyes, tip up my chin, and feel the warmth of his breath on my cheek, on my lips. Then just like that, it’s gone. And so is his touch.
I snap my eyes open, to find him looking at me with a tortured expression in his eyes. 'I can’t, Harper... someone who’d taint your innocence, someone who’d drag you down into the darkness with him. I’m not the man for you.'
'But what if you were?' I swallow. 'What if you were the man I was waiting for.'”

I post an ad on a paid dating site because I’m drowning in medical school debt. I never expected a billionaire to offer me millions to be his for December or that I’d say yes.
In my defense, the listing was a joke. I didn't think anyone would answer, especially not Thatcher Frost. This December, he needs a fake girlfriend to get his parents off his back. And if I pretend to be his until the day after Christmas, his sister wins a family bet about his love life.
The deal comes with rules: make it believable and no falling in love.
Saying no isn’t an option.
Spending the month with him means kissing and snuggling by the fireplace, but the mutual attraction turns into something more. We're so good at being a couple, his family falls for it and asks about wedding plans. And both of his exes? They can't stand the sight of us. Playing his girlfriend is too easy, but knowing what's real isn't.
By Christmas Eve, no one doubts we're in love, including him. This season, I’m the only one who needs convincing.
Candy Cane Crush is the second book in the Seasonal Swoon series by Lyra Parish. It can be read as a complete stand alone.

A holiday where everything starts off wrong, and ends up oh so right.
Chloe
When I surprise my boyfriend with a vacation I’d secretly planned, I never imagined he’d break up with me.
Definitely not two weeks before Christmas.
So instead of letting me spiral, my best friend insists I take the trip anyway.
Fresh air. Fresh start. What could go wrong?
Everything.
The second I arrive in the most festive town on earth, I discover all my reservations have been canceled.
It’s peak Christmas season.
Every room is booked. Every restaurant is packed.
And I’m stranded.
JB
When I decided to open a Christmas tree farm, everyone laughed.
Now we’re one of the biggest producers in the region. Hard work pays off.
Doesn’t mean I have to like it.
While the world calls it the most wonderful time of the year, I call it exhausting.
Dropping off a tree at the local inn should’ve been simple. Instead, I walked in on two women on the verge of a meltdown. I planned to keep walking—until my cousin volunteered my house as their backup.
I should’ve said no.
Except now I’m hauling her luggage through my front door, reminding myself it’s only for ten days.
Then she’ll be gone.
Except with every day that passes, she gets further under my skin.
You can’t fall in love in just over a week.
…Right?
Unless it’s a Holiday Rebound.

People know me as the billionaire who built a finance empire. The tech genius. The hacker.
The one who never stays long enough to break hearts because I never promise anything in the first place. Except there was one woman I couldn't walk away from.
Two years ago, Olivia and I agreed our chemistry would stay exactly what it was—hot, uncomplicated, and temporary. I thought time would make me forget her. Instead, she's the one woman no one else has ever measured up to.
Now she's asking me for help. Someone is sabotaging the company she's poured her heart into, and I'll do whatever it takes to protect it.
Protect her.
Working together was supposed to be temporary. Instead, I find myself wanting to spoil her, make her laugh after impossible days, and introduce her to my loud, crazy family.
The more time we spend together, the more one thing becomes impossible to ignore. I never got over Olivia.
OLIVIA
Walking back into Finn Sterling's life is the last thing I ever wanted to do.
He's richer than ever. More successful than ever. Even more devastatingly handsome than I remember.
He's also the only person I trust to help save the company I've spent years building.
Working side by side reminds me exactly why falling for him was so easy.
He believes in me when my confidence starts to crack.
He refuses to let me carry everything on my own.
He spoils me in a hundred unexpected ways, makes me laugh when I want to cry, and somehow convinces his loud, impossible family that I belong with them before I've even figured out where I stand.
Every day I spend with Finn makes walking away a little harder.
There's just one problem.
Finn Sterling has never believed in forever.
And I've reached the point in my life where I refuse to settle for anything less.
So when he looks at me like I'm the only woman in the world, I have to decide whether to protect my heart or risk it on the one man who's always had the power to break it.

I’ve shamelessly flirted with Trace Daniels for years and have spent more time dreaming about his hands than is reasonable.
The catch?
He’s never seen me as anything serious. Well, until now. All because I signed up for Eternity Springs’ Twelve Dates of Christmas Speed Dating Event.
Not that he signed up.
He just invited himself on mine.
Is it any wonder I’m skeptical when he’s suddenly acting like he wants me?
Trace
Ava has always been trouble. Beautiful, mouthy, and independent trouble.
Did I mention she’s twenty years younger than me?
For years, I’ve convinced myself that keeping my distance was the right thing to do. And then she had to go and sign up for holiday speed dating.
Suddenly, my good intentions go up in Christmas-candle-scented smoke. Now I have twelve dates to prove to the woman who finally gave up chasing me that I want more than just her body.

Single dad meets sunshine-with-a-spine, a five-year-old scene-stealer, an old dog who assigns himself to her porch, and a grovel with a drawing in it that will END you. Complete HEA, tissues mandatory, no cliffhanger.

A newborn on his doorstep. A nanny he can’t stop wanting. A secret that could tear them both apart.
Wes Cooper was packing up to leave his father’s pack for good when a woman from a one-night stand drove up, set a baby carrier at his feet, and left. Now he’s an alpha wolf with a brand-new son, a construction business to relaunch in Maple Ridge, Tennessee, and no idea how to get a baby to sleep.
Talia Rose has bigger problems than a sleepless baby. A tree just crashed through her bedroom, every contractor in town is booked solid, and her insurance deductible might as well be a million dollars. Then a hot single dad walks into his new office with his baby strapped into the carrier backward. Talia owns the local daycare, so she offers a deal: he fixes her house, and she’ll be his live-in nanny.
It’s supposed to be temporary. But Wes’s wolf knows Talia is his fated mate, and every late-night feeding and every brush of her hand makes the truth harder to hide. Meanwhile, the soulless corporation that swallowed Wes’s old pack has followed him to Maple Ridge, and one of its men looks at Luca like he already knows him.
When the truth about Luca’s mother comes out, it hits closer to home than either of them imagined. Wes has to decide whether he can trust the woman who already loves his son.
Nanny for the Alpha is a steamy fated-mates romance with a swoony single dad, a growly but tender wolf, a baby who steals every scene, and a heartwarming HEA. Shifters of Maple Ridge has a different couple for each book, but are best read in order.

The Six Twisted Sisters didn't survive this long by saying yes to things they didn't understand.
They said yes anyway.
One weekend. A cooking competition. Camera crews and string lights and tourists who'd never look close enough to see what lived in the shadows behind the charm. The plantation had played this role before—beautiful, composed, hiding its teeth—and the sisters were good at maintaining a mundane appearance. Probably too good.
Turns out they should've kept their heads down.
Something has been waiting in the bayou south of their property line since before New Orleans had cobblestones. Something long-suffering. Something that perseveres. After all, impatience is for things that haven't learned to fail well. This has failed a hundred times and still returned, sharpened by each defeat. Now there's a crack in the ward that held it out for nearly two centuries, and it's about to overcome that magical bond the way that water finds every weakness in old stone.
Then a vampire with knowledge that predates the nation appears like the swell of ocean waves in the hours before a hurricane.
She's not here with a warning. Warning implies time. She's here because the bloodlines connecting all nine lineages are waking up. And like it or not, if the Sisters can't hold the line, there won't be anything left worth protecting. Not the plantation. Not the city. Not the lights strung through the oaks that glow at dusk like something holy.
The competition finale is in three days.
And the ancient power yearning to break free isn't going to wait for the credits to roll.
