Showing results for "Teams" in Sports

I grew up with hockey in my blood. Becoming the new social media manager for the Chicago Blizzards was my dream job. I thought I knew everything about the game, including how to guard my heart against the infamous charms of hockey players. I was wrong. First, there's Lukas, the forward whose flirtations could melt the ice he plays on. Then there's Ryan, the defenseman whose stoic exterior hides depths of loyalty. Alex, the skills coach, challenges me to see beyond the game, while Slade, our team captain, reveals a vulnerability that calls to me in a way I never anticipated.

Contains all five books in the Vegas Heat: The Expansion Team series.

After an injury forced Theo Wynn to give up professional hockey, he turned to his second love: numbers. Now, as the general manager of his grandfather's NHL team, the Los Angeles Condors, Theo is dying to prove to the rest of his family - especially the brother who betrayed him - that he's just as successful as the rest of them. If only Theo had a gorgeous woman on his arm to complete the picture... Lacey Olson needs to get out of Las Vegas right now, thanks to her no-good, crooked brother. When a handsome stranger comes to her rescue, they strike up a conversation.

For as long as she can remember, Ember Maxwell’s life hasn’t been her own. A world-renowned influencer, she’s a brand unto herself, created by her parents - who also want Olympic glory for their only daughter. Years of grueling training have led to Seoul, Korea, and a spot on the modern pentathlon team. It’s a turning point for Ember in more ways than one. Chafing against her parents’ tight reins, she opts to stay in the Olympic Village, a decision that leads to a gravely harrowing event...and a man unlike any she’s ever met.

Resident playboy, Samson Morgan, thinks he can beat me at my own game. The hockey captain truly believes he can stop playing the field for longer than I can start having one-night stands. Okay, sure, historically I'm known for being an all-in, ask-to-be-your-girlfriend-on-the-first-date romantic. But being a player isn't that hard. And I came to Mendell University to win. Whether that's on the ice or off. Morgan doesn't realize it yet but he's finally met an opponent who can take him down.

Griffin: All it takes is four days to change my carefully planned-out life. Four days to fall for Peyton Monroe. Four days to convince her to give me . . . us a chance. Before her, baseball was the center of my world. Being the best. Getting a full-ride scholarship. Getting drafted. Going pro. But from the moment my frisbee lands at her feet on the beach, I can't stop thinking about her. She's beautiful, funny, smart . . . and lives thirteen hours away. Long-distance love is a complication I should avoid, but staying away from Peyton is not an option.

Our team is assembled, and the Vegas Heat is ready for our first season. Life is perfect except for one thing: I can't tell anybody about the love of my life. The more time passes, the more people find out. It's only a matter of time before her father learns the truth, but it has to come from us. If it doesn't, our relationship will become like a groundball that'll eventually roll to a stop… but there won't be anyone there to pick it up.

As it turns out, I can't stay away. Life keeps throwing us together, and it seems like she's everywhere all at once. She's in the same house as me, in the bedroom next to mine as I dream about what she's doing in there. She's interning at the baseball stadium when I'm there to focus on the game, and her boss has assigned her to shadow me as we work on a project together.

She has no idea who I am. I immediately like that about her. The gorgeous woman who sat down at the blackjack table beside me and asked me to teach her to play doesn't recognize me as the third baseman who played pro baseball for seven years. I tell her I'm in town for a job offer when the truth is my buddy just asked me to leave my quiet existence in San Diego and unretire so I can lead the new Vegas Heat expansion team to the championship.

Fighting against our relationship turns into keeping it a secret… most importantly from her father. At first, it's fun sneaking around, but then it feels like every time we're close to coming clean, something happens to stop us. Then, life takes another detour as the reminder that life is short plows into me. It's moments like these that make me think long and hard about the future. For the first time, the twelve years between us start to have some meaning as I wonder whether I'm robbing her of the future she deserves.

I was issued an ultimatum between the two loves of my life: her or the game. No matter what I choose, I have to give up something I love. Spring training is my first chance to show the world that Cooper Noah is back after the elbow injury that took me out of the game. It's the stage I stand on to prove I'm the starter the Vegas Heat is paying big bucks for. But my heart isn't in any of it. My heart can't be in it when it's broken. There's no way I can have both, but I've made my choice. It's time to play hardball.

Jede Geschichte hat zwei Seiten. Das hier ist meine… Ich habe in der Highschool schon unzählige Mädchen geküsst, doch die Einzige, die ich immer wollte, ist hoffnungslos in meinen besten Freund verliebt. Lizas Besessenheit von Tony raubt mir den letzten Nerv. Aber plötzlich ändern sich die Dinge, als Tony in diesem Sommer ein anderes Mädchen kennenlernt und mich bittet, Liza ein wenig von ihrem Kummer abzulenken. Fuck, ich bin dabei! Erst locke ich sie behutsam in mein Team und später auf meine Party.
