About this series

One season. Two stars. A game they never anticipated...

Jack Harrison's NHL dreams were shattered in a clash with coaches, leaving him playing for an Elite League team in his hometown of Calgary, Alberta. But life throws him a power play: a chance to join the Calgary Flames during an illness outbreak. Suddenly, Jack's back in the spotlight, and after scoring on one of the league’s best goalies, Canada is rallying for him to stay put.

Enter Delia Melise, a rising star fresh onto the Canadian music scene with a PR team hungry for headlines. Their plan? A fake romance with Jack, the country’s newest golden boy.

It's a play for publicity—until real feelings start breaking through the ice. As the spotlight grows hotter, so does the chemistry between them, and what started as a strategy soon spirals into something neither can control.

As Jack fights for his spot on the Flames and Delia's career hits new heights, they find themselves questioning whether a love sparked under the glare of the media lights can become something real…

For fans of Emily Henry and Abby Jiminez, "On the Power Play" is a heart-pounding hockey romance that will have you rooting for love on and off the ice.

    Emma can't fall for a player. But Tyler's game is proving difficult to ignore. Fate takes a slap shot at Emma's heart when she finds a driver's license outside a grocery store belonging to none other than Tyler Bowen. The center for her brother's hockey team with looks that scream plenty of scoring off the ice. Her overprotective brother warns her to stay away, but after a particularly patronizing comment, Emma decides to break free from the defense. Sean has always tried to control her relationships, and at twenty-nine, she's had enough. Emma convinces Tyler to mess with Sean and pretend they're in a relationship for just one night. Little does she know that Tyler has a surprise in his playbook. He needs Emma's assistance to face a formidable opponent: his father, the ultimate player of hearts. It was supposed to be all fun and games, but when the photography studio Emma works for is sold unexpectedly and Tyler's dad offers her a job, she realizes she may have glided too far into enemy territory. In 'Against the Boards,' the stakes are higher than a sudden-death overtime. Can she deliver the ultimate power play and skate away unscathed, or will love prove to be the most unpredictable game of all? Listen now!

Used to relying on physical hustle to keep his past addiction demons at bay, he's desperate to get back in the game. But with physical therapy slots filling up faster than a slapshot, he's on the verge of being shut out. Penny, a top-shelf physical therapist, is fresh off a break-up with her chiropractor boyfriend and is now left without a job or a home base. Then Brett, a random hockey player who plays on the same team as her friend’s boyfriend, texts about potential PT openings. She wants to help but can’t see past her own dumpster fire of a life. Until Brett mentions his roommate Tyler just moved out and he has an extra room. The game plan? Penny moves in, trading her top-tier PT skills for rent. The perfect breakaway deal. But living together without crossing the goal line is more difficult than either of them planned. Penny can’t afford a rebound with a hockey player, and Brett can’t screw things up with the only physical therapist available over the summer. But with chemistry hotter than a Zamboni's exhaust, will they be able to keep their relationship in the neutral zone? If you love witty banter, roommates to lovers, and the one bed trope, you'll adore this hockey rom com! Scroll up and click BUY NOW to dive into Book #2 of the puck-tastic Canadian Played series.

    Country's gearing up for the biggest face off of his life: winning Jenna back. Known for his stick-handling as much as for wrangling cattle on his family's ranch, Country Maddox becomes an overnight sensation with his viral hot takes on hockey highlights. But when he's invited to join Hockey Evening in Canada as a guest announcer, he's about to go stick to stick with the one adversary he can't outskate: his own failed love life. Jenna McCallister was the girl who left Country's heart colder than a puck in a winter playoff. After years of globetrotting and a stint in journalism school, she's back—unannounced and as unreachable as the Stanley Cup after a losing season. Now, she's arm-in-arm with the show's golden boy broadcaster, whose ego is as inflated as a Zamboni's tires. With Country's heart on thin ice, he's not keen on sticking around the show, but he might just have to stick it out and play the most important match of his life to win Jenna back. Will Country be able to net the ultimate hat trick by reclaiming his career, his love, and his pride? Or will he find himself watching Jenna skate away with someone else?
