Love in Maple Falls

Soulmates and Slapshots

I'm escaping the city. He's chasing a fresh start. In a town full of surprises, love might be the biggest one. Fiona: I'm a city girl turned temporary small-town resident—yes, I know, cliché. But after my life in Manhattan unraveled, I needed a reset. So when my aunt invited me to Maple Falls, I didn't hesitate. The slower pace is exactly what my burned-out brain needs. I've even made a few friends—including Weston Smith, a new player for the Ice Breakers hockey team who shows up when I need him most. A local crisis draws me in, and suddenly I'm more involved than I ever planned. Maybe it's the fresh air, or maybe it's Weston. I came here planning to leave… but now, I'm not so sure. Weston: Maple Falls is my fresh start—new team, new town, and a chance to prove myself. I didn't expect to get wrapped up in this community so fast—or to fall for a certain city girl. Fiona is bold and energetic, and I'm drawn to her more every day. When she's pulled into a town-wide crisis, I don't hesitate to help. Maple Falls isn't just where I play hockey—it's starting to feel like the place where my future truly begins. Soulmates and Slapshots is part of the Love in Maple Falls sweet hockey romcom multi-author series. In this slow burn, soulmate romance, a charming city girl meets a nice guy who falls first. Set in a small town with all the chemistry, but none of the spice.
