Ice Cold, Red Hot

On the ice, he's unstoppable. Off it, she's the only thing that can break him.

I play to win. On the ice. In life.

As captain of Coldwater's hockey team, my life is simple.
I skate. I hit. I score. I keep my head down and my fists ready.

Hockey is my ticket out. My family's name demands perfection, and the NHL is my future.
Distractions? I don't do those.

Until her.

Celeste Moreno. The girl who wrecked me with one perfect week last summer—and then vanished.
Now she's back.
Living down the hall. Teaching the class I'm stuck in.

She's forbidden—my TA, the one woman I can't touch without destroying everything I've worked for - and ruining her in the process.
So I try to ignore her.
Focus on hockey. On the draft. On the championship we're chasing.

But every time I see her, I lose my edge. And when another guy moves in on her? I lose my damn mind. One punch. One mistake. And now my whole career is on the line.

She was supposed to be a summer distraction.
But she's the only thing I want more than the game.
