The Toronto Terror Books in Order

The Toronto Terror series brings Helena Hunting’s hockey world back to Canada, this time focusing on a fictional pro team in Toronto where careers are high profile, the media glare is relentless, and love tends to arrive at the worst possible moment.

The books are interconnected standalones, each following a different player (or someone in the team’s orbit) as they fall for a person they really shouldn’t. If You Hate Me kicks things off with Tristan Stiles, a star player sharing a condo with his best friend—and teammate—when that friend’s little sister, Beatrix "Rix" Madden, moves in out of desperation. They’ve known each other for years, bicker like enemies, and have chemistry that practically requires a fire extinguisher. Their roommates‑to‑lovers story blends sharp banter, serious spice, and the kind of emotional baggage that comes from growing up under the spotlight.

If You Want Me raises the stakes with an age‑gap, dad’s‑best‑friend romance. Veteran player Hollis Hendrix has spent years being a steady presence in the locker room and in his best friend’s life. Falling for that friend’s daughter, Aurora Hammerstein—the team’s unofficial princess and a force in the front office—is absolutely off limits. Watching them toe the line between flirtation and forbidden is half the fun.

In If You Need Me, golden‑retriever‑energy forward Dallas Bright finally has a chance to make things right with Wilhelmina "Hemi" Reddi‑Grinst, the woman who has hated him since childhood thanks to one very memorable bad decision. When a PR disaster forces them into a fake relationship to save both of their jobs, decades of resentment clash with a very real, very inconvenient attraction.

If You Love Me focuses on single‑dad goalie Roman Hammerstein and Alexandria Forrester, the new assistant coach who also happens to be the woman he once spent an unforgettable weekend with—and then lost. Now they have to navigate a strict team hierarchy, a significant age gap, and the complications of parenting while deciding whether that brief spark might actually have been the start of something lasting.

Later installments, including If You Claim Me and If You Keep Me, continue to explore the Terror’s roster and their extended circle: players trying to manage money and fame, staff working behind the scenes, and people who grew up in the shadow of pro sports. Expect crossovers with the Pucked, All In, and Lies, Hearts & Truths casts, plenty of found‑family moments, and a tone that swings from laugh‑out‑loud ridiculous to surprisingly tender.

If you’re looking for contemporary hockey romance that feels current—social media scandals, front‑office drama, and a lot of chirping in the group chat—the Toronto Terror books are a natural next stop.
