With his eyes on the new girl will he lose his focus, and ultimately his dream? Twenty-two-year-old Logan Leo has never lived a life for herself. She's had to take care of others for as long as she can remember, but now that she has no longer has the responsibility of anyone else can she learn to care about herself first?

That is until she meets her best friend's brother, Eli.

Kai I’m a single dad and starting pitcher for Chicago’s MLB team. I’m stretched too thin, but I don’t want help raising my son. Each of his previous nannies only lasted a few weeks before I let them go. Now, my coach is putting his foot down by hiring the one person I can’t fire—his daughter. Miller Montgomery is the last woman I should fall for. Too wild, too young, and too unattached. Chicago is just a quick stop for her. I thought I’d be counting down the days until she left, but summer feels too short when I start thinking about forever. Miller As a high-end pastry chef who recently won the most prestigious award in my industry, I’m desperate to prove I deserve it. But with a new title comes new pressure, and I can’t create a fresh and inspiring dessert to save my life. With only two months to get back on track, I should be focusing in the kitchen, but instead, I let my dad talk me into using my time off to nanny for his star player’s kid. Kai Rhodes forgot how to have fun, and I’m eager to jog his memory. But when he and his son start to feel like home, I have to remind us both that my time in Chicago ends with the summer. Besides, I’ve always been a runner, and the last thing I want is to get caught.

Un jugador de baloncesto con el ego subido, la mejor amiga de su hermana y una decisión terrible: fingir que son pareja para engañar a la prensa y al mundo. ¿Qué puede salir mal? Llega la segunda parte de Mile High. RYAN Soy el nuevo capitán de los Devils, el equipo de la NBA de Chicago, y lo último que necesitaba este año era que Indy Ivers, la mejor amiga de mi hermana, se mudara a mi apartamento. Es desordenada, histérica y demasiado tentadora. Pero cuando el director del equipo expresa su desaprobación por mi ascenso a capitán, refiriéndose a mí como un lobo solitario sin equilibrio entre la vida laboral y personal, no se me ocurre mejor manera de convencerle de lo contrario que fingir que salgo con mi simpatiquísima compañera de piso. Tener una novia falsa no tenía por qué ser complicado, pero tener a Indy bajo mi techo y en mi cama es complicado, sobre todo cuando quiere también la parte romántica que yo nunca podría darle. INDY Nunca imaginé que viviría con el hermano de mi mejor amiga, la superestrella de la NBA Ryan Shay. ¿Más increíble aún? Me necesita para que actúe como su novia, amantísima y cariñosa, que de repente lo ha convertido en un tipo simpático y accesible. Porque, bueno... no lo es. Es un obseso de su espacio personal y no confía en los demás. Pero nuestro acuerdo no es unilateral. Tengo una boda dentro de poco, a la que asistirán todos mis amigos de la infancia, incluido mi exnovio, y no hay mejor venganza que ir acompañada del héroe de mi ex. Sin embargo, a veces se me hace imposible separar lo real de lo falso. Enamorarme de mi compañero de piso nunca formó parte del trato, sobre todo cuando Ryan no hace más que recordarme que no cree en el amor.

Zanders O hóquei em Chicago não está completo sem mim — o jogador que toda a gente adora odiar. Conheço o meu papel e desempenho-o bem. Na verdade, gosto muito de passar a maior parte do meu tempo de jogo na caixa de penalidades antes de sair do estádio com uma rapariga diferente no braço todas as noites. Do que não gosto é da nova hospedeira de bordo do avião privado da nossa equipa. Ela trabalha para mim, não o contrário. Mas eu vou lembrá-la disso e posso garantir que, no final da época, ela vai querer deixar o emprego. No entanto, todas as viagens parecem fazer desvanecer as linhas e não consigo perceber se continuo a carregar no botão de chamada da hospedeira de bordo para a pressionar, ou se é mais do que isso. Stevie Sou assistente de bordo há anos. Pensava que já tinha visto de tudo, mas quando o meu novo emprego me leva a bordo para trabalhar com a diva mais egoísta e presunçosa da NHL, começo a duvidar de tudo. Incluindo a promessa que fiz a mim mesma de nunca mais me envolver com um atleta... por mais irritantemente tentador que ele possa ser. Evan Zanders não tem filtros, não pede desculpa e é demasiado atraente para o seu próprio bem. Ele adora a sua imagem, mas eu odeio tudo isso. Tudo menos ele.

Stevie non è mai stata la prima scelta di nessuno. Zanders non è mai stato amato senza condizioni. Un incontro ad alta quota, un'attrazione travolgente. Stevie giunge a Chicago con un nuovo lavoro che l'aspetta: sarà l'assistente di volo nelle trasferte della squadra di hockey della città. C'è una sola regola, non fraternizzare con i giocatori. Per Stevie non sarà affatto un problema seguirla, considerato come la sua relazione passata con un giocatore di basket abbia minato la sua autostima tanto da indurla a promettersi di non uscire mai più con un atleta. Peccato che, già durante il primo volo, la sua attenzione venga calamitata dal bad boy della squadra. Fisico imponente, tatuaggi sexy e una propensione per le risse in campo, Evan Zanders ha l'atteggiamento strafottente di chi sa di essere venerato a ogni passo. Poco importa che il suo personaggio sia solo una maschera costruita per affascinare tifosi e giornalisti, ormai la fama di Zee è nota per tutta Chicago. A Stevie basterà un breve scambio di battute durante il primo volo per mettere le cose in chiaro con lui e fargli abbassare la cresta. Zanders però non riesce a restare indifferente davanti all'assistente di volo tutta curve che non ha timore di rispondergli a tono. Ora le lunghe trasferte in aereo assumono tutto un altro sapore, quello della conquista. Stevie potrà anche aver giurato di dire addio agli atleti, ma Zanders è il difensore più tosto della lega ed è abituato a lottare per prendersi ciò che vuole. Sullo sfondo della Città del Vento, più Stevie e Zanders si conoscono e più si rendono conto di essere simili: se Stevie vuole solo essere la prima scelta di qualcuno, Zee desidera con tutte le sue forze essere amato sinceramente. È l'inizio di un amore travolgente che dovrà affrontare insicurezze personali, aspettative di tifosi e giornalisti, e che dovrà combattere per continuare a volare ad alta quota.

ZANDERS Chicago hockey isn't complete without me - everyone's favourite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night. What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I'll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she'll be begging to quit her job. But every road trip blurs the lines, and I can't quite figure out if I keep pushing that flight attendant call button in order to push her buttons, or if it's more than that. STEVIE I've been a flight attendant for years. I thought I'd seen it all, but when my new job lands me onboard working for the most egotistical and self-righteous diva in the NHL, I start to second guess everything. Including the promise I made to myself of never hooking up with an athlete again . . . no matter how annoyingly tempting he may be. Evan Zanders is unfiltered, unapologetic, and too attractive for his own good. He loves his image, but I hate everything about it. Everything but him.

Eu me apaixonei por você nas alturas. Zanders é um dos melhores jogadores de hóquei do país e uma celebridade que vem há anos tirando todo o proveito do papel de bad boy — dentro e fora do gelo. Seus fãs já conhecem e adoram seu lado arrogante e mulherengo, e Zanders sempre ficou mais do que satisfeito em interpretar esse papel. Pelo menos até conhecer Stevie. Stevie é a nova e atrevida comissária de bordo no avião particular do time e não tem paciência para um jogador presunçoso como Zanders. A tensão entre os dois é imediata e efervescente. Ela conhece muito bem sua fama de playboy e não tem o menor interesse em se aproximar de um cara assim. Então por que não consegue ficar longe dele? Logo, Stevie descobre que por baixo daquela fachada arrogante existe um cara sensível, e Zanders se dá conta de que Stevie é o tipo de mulher por quem ele arriscaria sua reputação, sua carreira... e seu coração. CONTEÚDO ADULTO.

Kennedy I’m the only woman on staff for the Windy City Warriors, and after years of putting up with a sexist lead doctor, I’m desperate to land my dream job with a new team next year. All I have to do is maintain my professional reputation for my final season in Chicago. But a Las Vegas run-in with the team’s shortstop threatens it all, leaving me with a fuzzy memory and a ring on my left hand. Now, not only am I legally bound to the most persistent man I’ve ever met, but thanks to Isaiah’s scheme to save my job, I have to pretend the whole thing was a planned elopement and not a drunken mistake. Isaiah Rhodes is reckless, impulsive, and frustratingly charming. He’s also my brand-new husband. They got the saying wrong. What happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas… sometimes it follows you right back home. Isaiah As the shortstop for Chicago’s professional baseball team, I’ve had my fair share of fun. But that all ended the day Kennedy Kay became a single woman. I’ve crushed on the team’s athletic trainer for years. I’ve flirted to no avail, so imagine my surprise when I woke up in Sin City with a ring on my finger and my favorite redhead in my bed. We agree to stay married for one baseball season, just long enough to keep her job safe, but in my mind, I’m using our time together to prove to her I’m husband material. Kennedy might be reluctant to join in on our game, but it’s one I refuse to lose. So come on, wife… play along.

Rio and Hallie's Book

ZANDERS El hockey en Chicago no sería nada sin mí; la multitud necesita alguien a quien odiar. Sé cuál es mi papel, y lo represento a la perfección. De hecho, me encanta pasar la mayor parte del partido amonestado en el banquillo para luego dejar el estadio con una chica distinta cada noche... o eso es lo que quiero que piense la prensa. Lo que no me gusta es la nueva azafata del avión privado del equipo. Ella trabaja para mí, no al revés. Pero me aseguraré de recordárselo, y para cuando termine la temporada deseará no haber aceptado el puesto. Pero en cada vuelo estoy más confundido, y ya no logro distinguir si sigo pulsando el botón de llamada para fastidiarla o es que hay algo más. STEVIE Hace años que soy auxiliar de vuelo. Pensaba que lo había visto todo, pero cuando entro a trabajar para la superestrella más ególatra y arrogante de la Liga Nacional de Hockey, empiezo a replanteármelo todo. Especialmente la promesa que me hice a mí misma de no volver a tirarme a un deportista jamás... por mucho que me atraiga. Evan Zanders no tiene filtro ni complejos, y se tiene demasiado creído lo bueno que está. Adora la imagen que proyecta, pero yo detesto todo de ella. Todo... menos a él.

Vuelven los deportistas de Chicago y la saga de sports romance NA más exitosa de La Ciudad de los Vientos. Una noche loca en Las Vegas puede cambiarlo todo... Kennedy Soy la única mujer de la plantilla de los Windy City Warriors, y después de lidiar durante años con el machista de mi jefe, tengo muchísimas ganas de que llegue el año que viene para estar en el puesto en el que siempre he soñado con un equipo nuevo. Lo único que debo hacer es mantener mi reputación profesional durante mi última temporada en Chicago. Pero un encuentro en Las Vegas con el jugador estrella del equipo lo amenaza todo, dejándome con el difuso recuerdo de un anillo en mi mano izquierda. Ahora no solo estoy legalmente unida al hombre más persistente que he conocido en la vida, sino que tengo que fingir que todo fue una escapada planeada y no un error cometido por culpa del alcohol. Isaiah es temerario, impulsivo y frustrantemente encantador. También es mi flamante nuevo marido. Isaiah Como jugador del equipo profesional de béisbol de Chicago, no me han faltado las citas. Pero todo eso acabó el día en que Kennedy Kay se convirtió para mí en la única mujer. Durante años he estado colgado de ella. He intentado ligármela sin el menor resultado, así que qué mejor sorpresa que despertarme en Las Vegas con un anillo en el dedo y mi pelirroja favorita en la cama. Llegamos al acuerdo de seguir casados durante una temporada de béisbol, lo justo para que ella pueda conservar su trabajo, pero para mis adentros estoy aprovechando el tiempo que pasamos juntos para demostrarle que puedo ser un buen marido. Kennedy tal vez sea reacia a seguir con este plan, pero yo no me doy por vencido. Venga, esposa mía, sígueme el juego.

LOGAN From the outside looking in, everything was perfect. I had friends. I was in love. School was going great. I managed to hide the pain, to push it down, but it all came flooding back. The grief was almost blinding, but I saw Eli’s broken heart with perfect clarity the day I drove away from him. This was my year to be selfish. Falling in love with my best friend's brother wasn't part of my plan, but sometimes the best things in life are unpredictable. And the end of Eli’s senior year was anything but expected. ELI My priorities completely flipped when my brother's best friend moved to town. Everything I never knew I needed came in the form of a redhead from California with a heart too big for her own good. But Logan drove away from me, leaving me broken-hearted and alone. With my senior season winding down, it's my last chance to get called up to the NHL, and my dreams are within reach—it's everything I always wanted. But that was before I met her. How much do I need to sacrifice to prove to her that she's my dream too? If she asked me to, I'd selflessly give it all up for her.

RYAN She’s a distraction, that’s what she is. I’m the newest Captain of the Devils, Chicago’s NBA team, and the last thing I needed this year was for Indy Ivers, my sister’s best friend, to move into my apartment. She’s messy, emotional, and way too tempting. But when the team’s General Manager vocalizes his blatant disapproval of my promotion to Captain, referring to me as an unapproachable lone wolf with no work-life balance, I can’t think of a better way to convince him otherwise than pretending to date my outgoing roommate. The only problem? Faking it feels far too natural. Having a fake girlfriend wasn’t supposed to be messy but having Indy under my roof and in my bed is complicated, especially when she wants all the romantic parts of life that I could never give her. INDY I never imagined I’d be living with my best friend’s brother, NBA superstar Ryan Shay. Even more unbelievable? He needs me to act as his loving girlfriend who’s suddenly changed him into a friendly and approachable guy. Because, well…he’s not. He’s controlling of his space and untrusting of others. Our arrangement isn’t one-sided, though. I’m in a wedding coming up, one where every one of my childhood friends, including my ex-boyfriend, will be in attendance, and there’s no better date than my ex’s celebrity hero. Blurred lines make it almost impossible to separate real from fake. Falling for my roommate was never part of the deal, especially when Ryan is quick to remind me that he doesn’t believe in love. I’m a romantic and can’t help fantasizing that he’ll change, but soon enough, I find myself questioning if sharing a roof with my best friend’s brother was the right move after all

ZANDERS Chicago hokeyi onsuz tamamlanamazdı; herkesin nefret ettiği favori oyuncu. Rolünü biliyor ve iyi oynuyordu. Hatta arenadan her akşam kolunda başka bir kızla ayrılmaktan hoşlanıyordu. Hoşlanmadığı şey ise takımının özel uçağındaki yeni uçuş görevlisiydi. Stevie kimin için çalıştığını çok iyi anlayacaktı. Zanders, ona işkence etmekten keyif alacaktı. Ancak her uçuşla birlikte duyguları ve düşünceleri farklılaşıyordu ki bu da, işleri yokuşa sürüyordu. STEVIE Yıllardır uçuş görevlisiydi. Her şeyi gördüğünü sanıyordu ama yeni işi onu NHL’deki en egoist ve kendini beğenmiş diva için çalışmaya itince, her şeyi ikinci kez düşünmeye başlamıştı. Buna bir daha asla bir sporcuyla takılmayacağına dair kendine verdiği söz de dâhil... Evan Zanders özür dilemeyen ve kendi iyiliği için fazla çekici olan biriydi. Kendini seviyordu fakat Stevie onunla ilgili her şeyden nefret ediyordu. Onun dışındaki her şeyden.
