HE’S THE UNBREAKABLE WALL. I’M THE SLEDGEHAMMER COVERED IN GLITTER. AND WE’RE SNOWED IN TOGETHER.
Beckett North.
The St. Clair Sentinels’ star goalie. The "Ice King." My brother’s best friend.
He has three rules: Don’t touch his gear. Don’t break his silence. And don’t distract him from the NHL scouts watching his every move.
To him, I’m just "Tink"—a chaotic, neon-wearing nuisance who talks too much and feels too deeply.
He thinks he’s safe behind his mask. But I know the truth. I’ve seen the scars he hides under his jersey. I know that his silence isn't peace—it’s a fortress.
Halle Jacobs.
I’m homeless, stressed, and failing Microeconomics.
When my apartment floods, I have no choice but to crash at the Hockey House.
The plan was simple: Hide in my brother’s room, finish my fashion collection, and stay invisible.
But a blizzard has other plans. Now I’m trapped with Beckett. And the guy who supposedly hates me is suddenly offering to tutor me at 5:00 AM.
The Problem?
We made a deal. I follow his rigid routine, and he ensures I pass my mid-term.
But there’s nothing routine about the way he looks at me when he thinks I’m not watching.
There’s nothing safe about the late-night study sessions that turn into whispered confessions in the dark.
We’re playing a dangerous game. My brother made it clear: Beckett is off-limits.
But when the Wall finally crumbles?
It’s not going to be quiet. It’s going to be a catastrophe.
HE’S THE UNDISPUTED KING OF THE ICE. I’M THE TRAINER WHO KNOWS HIS SECRET. AND IF WE GET CAUGHT, WE LOSE EVERYTHING.
BRADLEY STERLING
They call me "The Brick." I’m the best goalie in the NCAA, the future number one draft pick, and a man with zero tolerance for distractions. I have a plan: Win the title, get drafted, and escape my past.
I don't do relationships. I don't do mess. And I definitely don't do the Coach’s niece.
But when a groin injury lands me on Rachel’s table late at night, my control snaps. She’s chaos wrapped in a polo shirt. She’s everything I can't have.
She wants me to teach her how to lose control? Fine. I’ll teach her.
But nobody touches her but me.
RACHEL SUMMERS
I have one rule: Don't date the players. especially not the grumpy, tattooed, terrifyingly silent Captain who treats me like a nuisance.
But Bradley Sterling isn't just a goalie. He’s a broken boy hiding behind a mask.
I asked him for a favor. I wanted to get over my fear of intimacy. I didn't expect him to say yes.
Now we’re sneaking around the equipment room. We’re breaking every rule in the book. He’s teaching me things that make me blush, and I’m teaching him that he doesn't have to be alone.
We think we’re playing it safe. But in this game, the first one to fall in love loses.
