THE RULES WERE SIMPLE: DON'T TOUCH THE PLAYERS. BUT I NEVER WAS GOOD AT FOLLOWING RULES.
THEO LASKARIS
They call him "The Wall." The Stonehaven Sentinels’ star goalie. He’s six-foot-five of brooding, silent muscle, and he has a save percentage that’s going to get him drafted first overall.
He’s also a control freak who treats his life like a spreadsheet.
I’m the variable he can’t calculate.
When a groin injury lands him on my rehab table, he looks at me like I’m a pest. A distraction. A liability.
But when the door locks and the lights go down, the Wall crumbles.
He doesn't want to just be fixed. He wants to be possessed.
And god help me, I want to be the one to break him.
CHARLOTTE BELL
I have a five-year plan. Graduate, get into Duke, and get the hell out of this frozen town.
Hooking up with the Captain of the hockey team is not on the itinerary.
Especially not one who is drowning in secrets and debts to dangerous men.
He’s forbidden fruit wrapped in Kevlar and ego.
One touch in the equipment room was a mistake.
The second touch was a catastrophe.
Now, I’m risking my career for a man who claims I’m just "baggage."
But I know the truth. I know what happens when the pads come off.
He thinks he can save everyone. But who is going to save him from me?
HE EVICTED ME. THEN HE MOVED ME IN. THEN HE RUINED ME.
James Sterling is a walking red flag wrapped in a designer suit.
He’s the Captain of the Blackwood Kodiaks. The heir to a billion-dollar tech empire. The Ice King of campus. He doesn’t have feelings; he has strategies. And his latest strategy involves buying my apartment building, kicking me out in a blizzard, and offering me his penthouse as a cage.
I’m Barbara "Barbie" Winslow, the scholarship student hanging by a thread.
I have forty dollars to my name and a mom in rehab. I don’t have time for arrogant hockey players with God complexes. But when James offers to pay my debts in exchange for playing the role of his "stable girlfriend" to impress his board of directors, I can't say no.
The rules were simple:
Live in his penthouse.
Wear his jersey.
Don't fall in love.
But James doesn't play fair. He watches me with those cold blue eyes until I burn. He touches me with a possessiveness that feels dangerously real. And when the bedroom door closes, the "Good Girl" act drops, and he shows me exactly who owns whom.
We’re a scandal waiting to happen. A collision of ice and fire.
He thinks he’s saving his legacy.
He doesn’t realize he’s about to break us both.
