Overview: Sloane St. James began writing after working with romance authors during the pandemic and immediately fell in love with the craft. It combines two of her favorite things, books and getting plowed. She loves writing strong, witty females and the dirty-talking men that love them–with a little suspense tossed in wherever she can. As an avid hockey fan, her Lakes Hockey series was a natural place to start and debuted in March 2023. When she’s not writing, she enjoys spending time with her family, traveling, and, of course, reading romance.

1. Before We Came:
Birdie:
Her funeral unraveled decades of secrets hidden from me—horrible secrets. This rabbit hole I’ve fallen down has revealed my past is much more sinister than I could have imagined. Everything I thought I knew has been a lie, and now there’s only one place for me to turn: back to the people who have been searching for me all these years.
One of those people is my newfound brother’s best friend: Lonan Burke, star defenseman for the Minnesota Lakes. His dirty talk and praise offer an easy escape as I shift into my new life. I’m ready to start anew with the ones who love me, but I’m not so sure I can settle down when I’ve just been set free.
Lonan:
She’s back. We were kids the last time I saw her, but my innocent crush from childhood is full-grown now. And it’s not so innocent anymore. She’s a breath of fresh air from the series of one-night stands since being drafted into the NHL. I’ve only got one shot with her, and I’m not taking it for granted. I may give her the passion she’s been craving, but she’s the intimacy I’ve waited for my whole life.
When her story hits the media, she needs a place to hide. I offer her sanctuary in my penthouse. For the first time, this frigid condo feels like a home, and she’s made me believe the future I’ve always wanted is within reach. For now, I’m willing to hold her hands during the day and pin them down at night. But I want more.
This spicy hockey romance features dirty talk, praise, suspense, kidnapping, angst, a fatal car accident, second-chance love, forced proximity, and of course, a happily ever after. Intended for mature listeners.
2. Strong and Wild:
Micky:
I’m new to this city, but things are looking up. My bestie’s husband hooked me up with a great apartment above the hockey bar where I currently work, and I’ve got a great side gig bringing in plenty of cash to help fund my dream of opening my own cocktail lounge, Sugar & Ice. Life is sweet. My new neighbor, on the other hand, is not.
When he reveals his true self, I hate what I discover. Until some of his secrets unravel, proving we have more in common than I realized, and I don’t mean hobbies like rock climbing or outdoor concerts. No, we have the good stuff—shared trauma. I promised myself I’d never let that negativity back into my life again, but my heart tells me Rhys is worth it.
Rhys:
Hockey comes first. Always has, always will. I’ve got a one-year contract, 365 days to prove to them I’m worth the investment—which is why I need to stay far away from the woman across the hall. We know each other quite well, but she thinks we’re strangers. I need to keep it that way.
The problem is she’s everywhere. Across the hall, on my laptop, bartending where my team hangs out. Micky is like a loose thread that I can’t stop tugging. Then, one night, she steps in to do me a favor, and all my defenses get shot to hell. Now, I’m showing her the real me, but it might not be enough for her.
This spicy hockey romance features dirty talk, praise, degradation, angst, enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, and, of course, a happily ever after. Intended for mature listeners.
3. In the Game:
Raleigh:
Growing up, the ice was my safe space. I excelled at playing hockey. However, these days, it’s hockey players who provide sanctuary—one bed at a time. We have an arrangement. I offer them a night of pleasure, and in return, they grant me all the temporary, artificial love I can get my hands on—a chance to feel whole. Happily ever after doesn’t exist where I come from, but I crave it just the same. It was a foolproof system.
Until Barrett. One night with him was all it took to tear down walls and crack the facade I worked so hard to build. The connection we had felt real, which made it all the more heartbreaking when it was time to leave. To him, I was simply another puck bunny. I never planned on seeing him again, until I discovered our one night changed my life forever. When I tried to reach out, he turned callous and cruel. That was the day I swore I’d never allow Barrett back into my life.
Barrett:
It’s been over five years since our one-night stand and I still can’t get her out of my head. No woman has ever come close to making me feel the things she did that night. But when I woke up the next morning, I was alone, without any way to contact her. Trust me, I tried. Over the years, searching for her has become an obsession, and I’ve faced endless ridicule from my teammates, but I’ll never give up. She’s out there, and I’m gonna find her.
That day finally comes after a spontaneous meet and greet with a new Minnesota Lakes sponsor. Suddenly, there she is, more beautiful than ever. If looks could kill, I’d be six feet deep. Raleigh’s convinced we are done for good, but now that I’ve found her, I’ll stop at nothing to make her mine. Because this time she has a four-year-old son—and he looks just like me.
This spicy hockey romance features a giant hockey player MMC, a curvy single-mother FMC, a secret baby (child), angst, an age gap, dirty talk, praise, primal play, and of course, a happily ever after. For mature listeners.
