Brief description: Emily Charlotte is an LA-based author of the Varsity series and other slow-burn romances. By day, she overconsumes iced coffee and teaches English to students who patiently put up with her research questions; by night, she overthinks reality dating shows and admires athletes with far more coordination than she's ever possessed.

Review Quotes: "Heart Check is a crackling, slow-burn romance set into the icy backdrop of hockey-obsessed Hamilton Lakes, where polar-opposites Harper and Dawson find themselves equal parts repelled and spellbound by each other's relentless ambition. With its idyllic, small-town setting and rivals-to-lovers arc, Heart Check is the most charming sports romance I've read in a long time. I wish I could spend every winter in cozy Hamilton Lakes with Harper Braedon and Luke Dawson."--Ellen O'Clover, author of Seven Percent of Ro Devereux
