He’s the type of guy I’ve always been warned about: dominant, too hot to handle, and my grumpy boss to boot! And yet, I jump willingly into that fire... I knew better. I mean, I’m a Badass Queen, ruling in a male-run world. But even Queens need to have fun, and what I needed was a dirty, flirty one-night stand Enter Dominic "Dom" Steele, billionaire hockey legend. At 6’ 3", his presence is commanding. Each muscle finely sculpted, his body is pure perfection.

Whether in lake, lido, river or sea, we know the benefits of swimming outdoors and in nature—environmentally friendly and accessible, it can influence our happiness, our energy and our inner tranquillity.

Danish scientist Susanna Søberg leads us step by step into the icy water and explains the 'cold-shock response', the massive endorphin rush as our body reacts and adapts.

I hooked up with a red-hot stranger while running for my life. Bad idea. Then I discover he’s my brother’s best friend—the one I’ve always wanted to punch in the face. Even worse. Now I’m his fake fiancée... and actually loving it. Hunted by a gang for knowing military secrets, I flee to my small town for safety. Along the way, I need... relief. Enter a tall, impossibly delicious hunk with a body that could make a six-pack look like a twelve-pack. Yum. We have a passionate fling that leaves me craving more. When I get home, I’m stunned to find the stranger is Mike Hunter—...

In the fraternity of NHL coaches, some stand out for their winning records, some for their big personalities and some for their unprecedented methods. Mike Keenan stands out on all these counts, and more. Breaking into the NHL as head coach of the Philadelphia Flyers in 1984, Keenan got instant results, leading them to the Stanley Cup final in his first year. In 1987, he coached Team Canada to victory in the Canada Cup using his intuitive bench management, putting superstars Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux together on a line at key times to great, winning results.

The pursuit of excellence is a double edged sword that leaves many hockey players or any high-performer worrying about mistakes, overthinking, and lacking confidence. Fluffy and cookie-cutter advice like “be positive,” “don’t worry about it,” and “just be confident” only makes things worse. These might be the mental states you are trying to achieve, but they are not the ‘how to’.

A hockey star, a one-night stand, and a baby neither of us planned. I never thought I’d see Wyatt Banks again until he walks back into my life as my client. He’s every woman’s fantasy: tall, smoldering, and built to ruin you in all the best ways. One night with him changed everything. He left without a word, leaving me with the biggest secret of my life…our son. As a PR expert, my job is to fix his image, not relive the heat of our past. But every time he looks at me, that same fire ignites, pulling me closer to the edge. I’m fighting to stay professional, but Wyatt isn’t making...

It is the greatest American underdog sports story ever told: how a team of college kids and unsigned amateurs, under the tutelage of legendary coach - and legendary taskmaster - Herb Brooks, beat the elite Soviet hockey team on their way to winning the gold medal at the 1980 Lake Placid Olympics. No one believed the scrappy Americans had a real shot at winning. Despite being undefeated, the US - the youngest team in the competition - were facing off against the four-time defending gold medalist Russians.

When Gracie Gold stepped onto center stage (or ice, rather) as America’s sweetheart at the 2014 Sochi Olympics, she instantly became the face of America’s most beloved winter sport.

Your mom probably told you it's what on the inside that counts. Well, then she was never a competitive figure skater. Olympic medalist Adam Rippon has been making it pretty for the judges even when, just below the surface, everything was an absolute mess. From traveling to practices on the Greyhound bus next to ex convicts to being so poor he could only afford to eat the free apples at his gym, Rippon got through the toughest times with a smile on his face, a glint in his eye, and quip ready for anyone listening. Beautiful on the Outside looks at his journey.

Fred Sasakamoose, torn from his home at the age of seven, endured the horrors of residential school for a decade before becoming one of 120 players in the most elite hockey league in the world. He has been heralded as the first Indigenous player with Treaty status in the NHL. After twelve games, he returned home. When people tell Sasakamoose's story, this is usually where they end it. Sasakamoose's groundbreaking memoir sheds piercing light on Canadian history and Indigenous politics, and follows this man's journey to reclaim pride in a heritage that had been used against him.

Going far beyond stories of races and ribbons, she describes the challenges and frustrations of becoming a serious athlete.

When the Summit Series began on September 2, 1972, Cold War tensions could not have been higher. But that was the whole point of setting up this unprecedented hockey series. Team Canada, featuring the country’s best players—all NHL stars, half of them future Hall of Famers—would play an eight-game series, with four games played across Canada followed by four in Moscow. Almost everyone expected Team Canada to crush their untried opponents eight games to zero, with backups playing the last four games.
