HE’S THE NHL''S MOST PROMISING GOALIE. I’M THE ONLY WOMAN WHO CAN RUIN HIM. AND HE JUST ASKED ME TO LOCK THE DOOR.
Frank "The Fortress" Sterling.
They call him a machine. A wall. A monster in the crease.
As the star goalie for VSU, he has three rules: No distractions. No emotions. And absolutely nobody touches his gear.
He’s superstitious, obsessive, and scary intense. He’s also the hottest man on campus, with eyes like ice and a body built for violence.
I’m the new Head Equipment Manager. My job is literally to touch his gear.
Naturally, he hates me.
He thinks I’m "entropy." I think he’s a brooding gargoyle with a god complex.
I should stay away. But when he needs a tutor to save his GPA and his draft stock, I’m the only one who can help.
Sandra "Sunny" O’Neil.
I live my life in color-coded spreadsheets and romance novels. I’m invisible. Safe.
Until Frank Sterling drags me into his dark, quiet world.
We made a deal: I fix his grades; he lets me do my job.
But late nights in the library turn into heated glances in the locker room. The hatred melts into something dangerous. Something possessing.
He looks at me like I’m the only thing that matters. He touches me like he wants to devour me.
But Frank is a fortress for a reason. And when the NHL scouts start asking questions about his "distractions," we both realize that falling in love might cost us the game.
We’re playing with fire on fresh ice. And someone is about to get burned.
I CRASHED MY CAR INTO HIS ASTON MARTIN. NOW I’M LIVING IN HIS PENTHOUSE TO PAY IT OFF.
Justin Thorne.
He’s the Captain of the Silver Wolves. The Ice God of Sterling University. And the heir to a billion-dollar legacy that treats people like portfolio items.
He’s cold, controlling, and terrifyingly precise.
He’s also the man holding the invoice for forty-eight thousand dollars of damage I can'''t afford to pay.
But Justin doesn’t want my money. He wants control.
He offers me a deal: Move into his penthouse. Cook his meals. Organize his life. Be his "assistant" until the debt is cleared.
It was supposed to be a business transaction. Until he found out I’ve never been touched.
Now, the look in his eyes isn’t about money. It’s about hunger.
Amanda Loxley.
I’m a scholarship student hanging on by a thread. I have three jobs, a broken-down car, and a dream of Olympic Gold.
Justin Thorne is everything I hate: rich, entitled, and arrogant.
But living in "The Hive" with him is confusing. Because beneath the bespoke suits and the cruel commands, I see a man who is lonelier than I am.
We struck a deal to fake date to get his father off his back. But when he touches me, there’s nothing fake about it.
He calls me a liability. He treats me like an asset.
But when the lights go out, he makes me feel like a Queen.
The Contract was simple: Work off the debt. Don't fall in love.
But Justin Thorne doesn't play by the rules. He plays to win.
And he just decided that I’m the prize.
