I’m the only girl on Northern Crest University’s men’s hockey team… and I just moved in with the captain who wants me gone and hates me. After I won the open tryout and earned a spot as backup right winger, everyone thought it was a joke. Especially Captain Logan Mercer, the six-four, emerald-eyed, arrogant NHL prospect who rules the ice like a god. He hates that I’m here and thinks I’m a PR stunt who’ll get crushed. Then reality hits. The hockey housing was only built for guys and no one prepared for a girl actually making the roster meaning every room is taken. Now I’m forced to share his off-campus apartment. One apartment. One shared bathroom. One very pissed off captain. Logan gives me sixty days to prove I belong on his team… or he’ll make sure I’m cut. On the ice, he’s ruthless; freezing me out, pushing me harder than anyone. But at home? The hate turns dangerously hot and the tension is so thick I can barely breathe. He’s supposed to break me. I’m supposed to hate him. But every night under the same roof, the line between hatred and hunger gets harder to see. Especially when he realizes I'm not here to play, start unlocking plays even he can’t predict… and old ghosts from my past start showing up. The real game isn’t on the ice anymore. It’s surviving the man sleeping on the other side of the wall… and not falling for the one who’s supposed to destroy me.
