HE TOLD ME I HAD FIVE SECONDS TO EXPLAIN WHY I WASN'T BEING ARRESTED. I TOLD HIM HE HAD FIVE SECONDS TO PUT ON SOME PANTS.
Matthias Vane.
He’s the Prince of Blackwood University. The Captain of the Kodiaks. The heir to a billion-dollar empire.
He is cold, controlling, and obsessed with order.
I am a scholarship student clinging to my violin case and a dream that’s fading fast. I’m messy, loud, and barely surviving.
We were never supposed to meet.
But thanks to a clause in his father’s trust and a favor owed to my dad, I’m not just meeting him.
I’m moving in with him.
Donna Calloway.
She broke my twelve-thousand-dollar vase five minutes after walking through the door.
She hums when she eats. She leaves sheet music on my pristine counters. She defies every order I give her.
She is a chaotic variable in my perfectly calculated life.
I should hate her. I do hate her.
But then I catch her watching me across the ice. I hear her playing Tchaikovsky in the dark.
And when I find out she’s failing the one class I mastered years ago, I make her a deal.
I’ll get her the grade. She follows my rules.
Rule #1: The apartment stays clean.
Rule #2: Do exactly what I say.
Rule #3: Don't let me find out how beautifully you break.
We thought it was just a contract. But when the lights go out in the penthouse, the lines between roommate and obsession blur.
I’m risking my draft pick. She’s risking her future.
And when the buzzer sounds, one of us is going to lose everything.
ONE NIGHT. NO NAMES. TWO PINK LINES.
ANDREW VANCE
They call me "The Anchor." As the starting goalie for Crestview University, I am the wall that nothing gets past. I have one goal: The NHL Draft. I don’t do distractions. I don’t do feelings. And I certainly don't do relationships.
Until a masked girl in a coat closet ruins me.
Now, she’s everywhere. She’s the new student trainer assigned to rehab my torn hip. She’s the only person who isn't afraid of my temper. She’s the vanilla scent haunting my dreams.
I know she’s hiding something. She wears oversized hoodies. She skips meals. She trembles when I get too close.
I should stay away. She’s off-limits. She’s a liability.
But I’ve never been good at letting things go.
CAROL LIN
I have a plan: Keep my head down, keep my scholarship, and survive my senior year.
Getting knocked up by the moody, arrogant, devastatingly hot hockey captain was not on the syllabus.
Andrew Vance is the enemy. He’s rich, entitled, and the reason I’m currently vomiting before 8 AM classes. But he’s also my patient. I have to touch him every day. I have to ignore the way his gray eyes track my every move.
We made a deal: I fix his injury in secret, and he helps me survive the semester.
But secrets have a way of coming out. especially the one growing inside me.
He thinks he’s fighting for a contract.
He has no idea he’s already a father.
