Briar U: The Risk

Everyone says I’m a bad girl. They’re only partly right—I don’t let fear rule me, and I certainly don’t care what people think. But I draw the line at sleeping with the enemy. As the daughter of Briar’s head hockey coach, I’d be vilified if I hooked up with a player from a rival team. And that’s who Jake Connelly is. Harvard’s star forward is arrogant, annoying, and too attractive for his own good. But fate is cruel—I require his help to secure a much-coveted internship, and the sexy jerk isn’t making it easy for me. I need Connelly to be my fake boyfriend. For every fake date…he wants a real one. Which means this bad girl is in big trouble. Nothing good can come from sneaking around with Jake Connelly. My father would kill me, my friends will revolt, and my post-college career is on the line. But while it’s getting harder and harder to resist Jake’s oozing sex appeal and cocky grin, I refuse to fall for him. That’s the one risk I’m not willing to take.

Briar U: The Chase

Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there’s no logical reason why I’m so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don’t usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I’m flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn’t help that he’s buddy-buddy with my brother. And that his best friend has a crush on me. And that I just moved in with them. Oh, did I not mention we’re roommates? I suppose it doesn’t matter. Fitzy has made it clear he’s not interested in me, even though the sparks between us are liable to burn our house down. I’m not the kind of girl who chases after a man, though, and I’m not about to start. I’ve got my hands full dealing with a new school, a sleazy professor, and an uncertain future. So if my sexy brooding roomie wises up and realizes what he’s missing? He knows where to find me.

Off-Campus: The Legacy

Four stories. Four couples. Three years of real life after graduation… A wedding. A proposal. An elopement. And a surprise pregnancy. Can you guess which couple is which? Come for the drama, stay for the laughs! Catch up with your favorite Off-Campus characters as they navigate the changes that come with growing up and discover that big decisions can have big consequences…and big rewards.

Off-Campus: The Goal

She’s good at achieving her goals… College senior Sabrina James has her whole future planned out: graduate from college, kick butt in law school, and land a high-paying job at a cutthroat firm. Her path to escaping her shameful past certainly doesn’t include a gorgeous hockey player who believes in love at first sight. One night of sizzling heat and surprising tenderness is all she’s willing to give John Tucker, but sometimes, one night is all it takes for your entire life to change. But the game just got a whole lot more complicated Tucker believes being a team player is as important as being the star. On the ice, he’s fine staying out of the spotlight, but when it comes to becoming a daddy at the age of twenty-two, he refuses to be a bench warmer. It doesn’t hurt that the soon-to-be mother of his child is beautiful, whip-smart, and keeps him on his toes. The problem is, Sabrina’s heart is locked up tight, and the fiery brunette is too stubborn to accept his help. If he wants a life with the woman of his dreams, he’ll have to convince her that some goals can only be made with an assist.

Off-Campus: The Score

He knows how to score, on and off the ice Allie Hayes is in crisis mode. With graduation looming, she still doesn’t have the first clue about what she’s going to do after college. To make matters worse, she’s nursing a broken heart thanks to the end of her longtime relationship. Wild rebound sex is definitely not the solution to her problems, but gorgeous hockey star Dean Di Laurentis is impossible to resist. Just once, though, because even if her future is uncertain, it sure as heck won’t include the king of one-night stands. It’ll take more than flashy moves to win her over Dean always gets what he wants. Girls, grades, girls, recognition, girls…he’s a ladies man, all right, and he’s yet to meet a woman who’s immune to his charms. Until Allie. For one night, the feisty blonde rocked his entire world—and now she wants to be friends? Nope. It’s not over until he says it’s over. Dean is in full-on pursuit, but when life-rocking changes strike, he starts to wonder if maybe it’s time to stop focusing on scoring…and shoot for love.

Off-Campus: The Mistake

He’s a player in more ways than one… College junior John Logan can get any girl he wants. For this hockey star, life is a parade of parties and hook-ups, but behind his killer grins and easygoing charm, he hides growing despair about the dead-end road he’ll be forced to walk after graduation. A sexy encounter with freshman Grace Ivers is just the distraction he needs, but when a thoughtless mistake pushes her away, Logan plans to spend his final year proving to her that he’s worth a second chance. Now he’s going to need to up his game… After a less than stellar freshman year, Grace is back at Briar University, older, wiser, and so over the arrogant hockey player she nearly handed her V-card to. She’s not a charity case, and she’s not the quiet butterfly she was when they first hooked up. If Logan expects her to roll over and beg like all his other puck bunnies, he can think again. He wants her back? He’ll have to work for it. This time around, she’ll be the one in the driver’s seat…and she plans on driving him wild.

If helping a sarcastic brunette make another guy jealous will help him secure his position on the team, he’s all for it.

Now he just has to convince Hannah that the man she wants looks a lot like him.

The Auradon Kids & the VKs are now all grown ups with kids bringing new generations that live in harmony.

One More Light

Eli Vance has spent eight years as the invisible backbone of Broadway — a swing, an understudy, a chorus member in the back row. He is exceptional and almost entirely unknown. When a last-minute casting crisis opens the lead role of Thomas Halloway in the new musical The Glass Coast — the most anticipated show in a decade — Eli is thrown into the spotlight with four days of rehearsal and a lifetime of yearning. What follows is not a simple triumph. It is a reckoning: with failure, identity, ambition, the cost of love deferred, and the terrifying question of who you are when you finally get what you always wanted.

A Court of Thorns and Roses

The show opens with Feyre hunting in the brutal winter woods to feed her starving family ("The Cold Between Our Bones"). When she kills a massive wolf, she unknowingly breaks a magical treaty. A terrifying beast bursts into her cottage, demanding a life for a life. To save her family, Feyre agrees to spend the rest of her days in Prythian, the magical realm of Fae ("The Border of Mist"). Arriving at the Spring Court, the beast transforms into Tamlin, a High Fae Lord masked by a curse. Feyre is hostile, viewing her captor and his emissary, Lucien, as monsters ("In a Cage of Gold"). However, as spring blooms, Tamlin reveals his vulnerability and the blight destroying his lands ("The Thorns We Wear"). Feyre begins to paint again, finding freedom she never had at home, and a passionate romance sparks between her and Tamlin ("Color the Sky"). Just as they confess their love, the shadow of Amarantha—the tyrannical queen ruling Prythian from Under the Mountain—looms. Tamlin, desperate to protect Feyre, sends her back to the human realm ("Go"). Back home, her family is safe and wealthy thanks to Tamlin, but Feyre realizes she cannot abandon the man she loves. She returns to Prythian, only to find the Spring Court abandoned and ruined ("Act I Finale: I Will Find You"). Feyre journeys deep Under the Mountain to confront Amarantha. The wicked queen offers a cruel deal: if Feyre can solve a riddle or survive three deadly trials, Tamlin and his court will be freed. If she fails, she dies ("The Rules of the Game").

Dorothy Must Die

The show opens in "Dust Acres," a bleak, monochrome trailer park in Kansas. Sixteen-year-old Amy Gumm sings of her isolation, her mother’s substance abuse, and the relentless bullying she faces at school ("Salina, Kansas"). When a sudden, violent tornado rips through the county, Amy’s trailer is pulled into the sky. The stage explodes into color and discordant sound as the trailer crashes into a ruined Land of Oz. The vibrant yellow brick road is cracked, gray, and leaking magic. Amy is pulled from the wreckage by Pete, a mysterious palace gardener who cryptically tells her to head to the Emerald City before vanishing. Amy encounters Indigo, a goth Munchkin covered in historical tattoos of an uncorrupted Oz, and Ollie, a talking monkey whose wings were brutally amputated by the crown. Their journey is cut short when Dorothy’s grand inquisitor, the Tin Woodman, ambushes them ("The Iron Fist"). Indigo is killed defending Amy, and Amy is hauled away to the Emerald City in chains. In the Emerald Castle, Amy meets Dorothy Gale. Dorothy is no longer a sweet farm girl; she is a vicious tyrant who drains Oz's natural magic to fuel her own power and vanity ("Perfect Little Girl"). Imprisoned and sentenced to a horrific public trial, Amy is suddenly broken out by Mombi, a high-ranking witch of the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked. Mombi teleports Amy to an underground cavern network, introducing her to Glamora and the rebel fighters, including the hostile, brooding warlock Nox. They reveal a prophecy: someone from the "Other World" must undo what Dorothy did. They offer Amy a choice: join them or die in Oz ("The Order's Decree"). Amy chooses to fight. A grueling, magical, and physical training sequence follows, during which Amy and Nox find common ground amidst their shared trauma ("Wicked Work").
