She rules the courtroom with ice in her veins. He’s about to make her burn. Maya Chen is Westridge University’s most untouchable law student—cold, calculated, and obsessed with control. But behind her crisp blazers and rigid perfectionism lies a secret kind of hunger, one she spent the morning desperately satisfying all by herself. Enter Liam Vance. The university’s star hockey captain is arrogant, insufferable, and dangerously close to losing his scholarship. When the Dean forces Maya to tutor him, a civil academic arrangement instantly explodes into a ruthless, high-stakes prank war. They aren’t just fighting over textbooks; they’re testing how far they can push each other over the edge. From spiked chocolates that melt his self-control during public press conferences to secret games in the dead of the library where a single hidden video turns power dynamics completely upside down—Maya and Liam are playing a very dirty game. He wants to shatter her icy composure. She wants to break his arrogant grip. But in a game where every penalty means losing control, neither of them plans on walking away innocent. Rules are meant to be broken. And the penalty box has never felt this hot.
