Pucker Up Series: Books I and II

PUCKER UP: BOOK I

His name is Ozzie. He’s the college hockey star every girl wants a piece of, and who every guy wants to be.

Every girl except me. The only thing I want from him is enough details to write a story for my college paper.

But he hates reporters almost as much as I hate jocks. So, I approach him carefully, not expecting to feel anything for him. But his charm is more powerful than I imagined. For a girl who was once a loser in high school, I like the way he makes me feel and I want to feel it some more. So I lie about who I am. When I finally decide to tell him the truth, it’s too late. My lie threatens to expose his darkest secrets and also break my heart.

THE GOON: BOOK II

"I suppose I could have pleaded temporary insanity in court. The judge might have believed me-she may have even sympathized with me. But I didn't do that. I might have, had there not been a curve ball to my crime."

After catching her boyfriend cheating, Emily lashes out and gets thrown in jail. She's sentenced to help a police officer teach at-risk kids how to skate. But Emily hasn't been on skates since she was five, leading her to take lessons to prepare. Hockey enforcer Michael, otherwise known as The Goon, is not what she expected. He's patient, charming and someone she genuinely likes. So, when she discovers the girl he's dating is the same girl her ex was cheating with, she's left with the task of telling Michael. Their connection bonds them. But being each other's rebound isn't a good way to start a relationship. And if that were their only problem they might have a shot, but there's more to their stories than meets the eye.
