When a snowstorm strands sports agent Brian Klein in a charming Pittsburgh bookshop, he fears his holiday is ruined. But curvy store owner Noa Bishop has a smile brighter than any blackout, a spare fuzzy sweater, and a soft spot for silver-haired strangers with too many phone notifications. The blizzard knocks out the power, so Noa shares her tea, her traditions, and her sticky-sweet ideas for fun with jelly donuts.

Why choose between enemies-to-lovers, workplace romance, and second chances when you can have them all? This smart, sizzling series follows the Brady family--brilliant, brooding engineers who think they have life figured out until the right partners prove them wonderfully wrong.

I finally made it to the pros, like my father before me, and I have to prove I belong here. But lately, I’ve been distracted. There’s this woman. I met her after a game in Vegas, and we got a little drunk—and married. My new wife is stunning, a cellist whose music breaks down my defenses. Amazingly, she’s moved to Pittsburgh to be with me and she even fits in with my rowdy family. Everything should be perfect.

My humiliation goes viral and suddenly my entire life—from my back pass to my bisexuality—is tabloid fodder.

When Doc finds herself homeless after confronting her ex, I offer her my guest room while we both lick our wounds.

Fletcher Crawford is a playboy producer. He flies around the world chasing fast cars and fast women. He’s way too old to still feel hurt by his high school heartbreak, right? One day he scorns the wrong woman and finds himself grounded in his hometown, where he finds Thistle McMurray around every turn.

Only problem is, she can't get him out of her head. Archer is used to making questionable decisions. In a family of overachievers, he's an average guy and nobody expects too much of him. Why shouldn't the new gal in town come looking to him when she wanted to knock boots?

To get a break from my family, I decide to move out and answer an online ad for a roommate. What could go wrong? For starters, my roommate turns out to be…not a dude. A smoking hot finance chick. But this is fine. We can be friends who live together. I just need to ignore the simmering lust that clouds my vision.

I am tired of people asking me how hard it is to be a woman in engineering. My career is the least of my worries. Dealing with my family and personal relationships? That's the hard part. I proposition a hottie, just to tune it all out for a bit. The fling blows my mind, but leaves me with unexpected consequences. By the time I meet the guy again, he's a different person, and I'm carrying a huge secret.

Liam Brady has no chill. He’s a guy who irons his underwear and checks people’s math for a living. When his family business hires a creative writer for a marketing project, he is not prepared to spend time with a woman who keeps candy in her pockets and always asks people uncomfortable questions.

Zack Brady doesn’t do relationships. He does calculations. Her name is Nicole Kennedy. She’s loud and crass, and has no time for nonsense. She certainly doesn’t have time for a mysterious trench swallowing her yard. To make matters worse, the grouchy engineer who shows up to fix it is the same jerk she’s forced to run beside during the corporate relay race her boss insisted she run.

Giving in to their attraction could fracture their connection with their adult children. But staying apart might mean they miss their last chance at love…

Out of Bounds delivers powerful athletes who meet their matches in the most unexpected places. A professional soccer player willing to sacrifice everything to protect the woman who once broke his heart. A steamy one-night stand becomes a forbidden campus affair that could destroy futures. And a broken champion finds healing in the one woman who won't let him give up on himself.

Sometimes you have to lose everything to win what matters most. I had it all–speed, skill, and a one-way ticket to the pros. But one bad hit shattered my career and left me with a busted leg, a bruised ego, and no clue what comes next. Enter Thora, my no-nonsense research partner who’s too smart, too fierce, and too beautiful for a washed-up guy like me. She’s got a sharp mind, big dreams, and zero patience for my pity party. Plus, she sees straight through my game face to all the broken parts of me, and instead of running away she challenges me to do better.

I can't tear my eyes away from her. She's incredible, the best soccer midfielder I've ever seen. Raw passion on the field. A hundred percent my type, but a thousand percent a distraction I can't afford right now. I've dated other athletes before. We're all too focused on our game for anything meaningful off the field. And usually, I prefer it that way. But she's all muscle and grit, with fierce eyes that let me know she'd wreck my body. And I'd love every second.

I doubted her once before and rejected her. Now, I'll do anything to make things right and protect what’s ours. Exposing the truth means risking my career. But how can I chase my dreams knowing hers are slipping away? With both our futures on the line, I’m ready to risk it all and expose the truth. Losing her once was devastating enough. I won't let her down a second time. What we share is electric, and protecting her feels worth any sacrifice. This time, I'll fight for her trust…and hopefully her heart.

Kellen Brady is just fine, thank you. He runs his family business. He cooks family dinners and takes his vitamins. He even gets plenty of exercise. When his daughter suggests he needs to get back out there, Kellen brushes off her comment and gets back to his work instead. Safer that way. Elizabeth Burns feels like she's waking up from a 20-year sleep. Decades of infertility, then raising an Autistic teen have taken their toll, and when Elizabeth realizes her distant husband is also a dirtbag, she shakes off the fog and heads for a new home and a new life.

People always like me. It's kind of my thing. All the employees at my tech startup think I'm the best boss, and the community partners and investors I woo not only trust, but adore me. Everyone likes me, except him. I may have been caught off guard when I accidentally insulted AJ Trachtenberg, but I'm pulling out all the stops trying to make it up to him…and it’s not working. Offering his students a swanky field trip doesn't win him over—it only seems to make him grumpier.

My life revolves around just one thing: my daughter. I don’t have the time or energy for anything else—not my foolish dream of an acting career and definitely not the annoying woman who opened a gym in the warehouse behind my garage. Piper’s a menace to society, between her loud music, hurling weights around like a shot putter, and her building that is definitely not up to code. Unfortunately, my kid thinks she’s the best thing since unlimited screen-time. It’s getting harder to avoid Piper when my daughter keeps going over there to ask about hair braids and sports teams.
