Description de l’éditeur
USA Today Bestseller
From TikTok sensation Grace Reilly, the long-awaited final book in the Beyond the Play series and your newest obsession, a spicy brother’s rival college hockey romance, perfect for fans of Hannah Grace, Liz Tomforde, and Elsie Silver.
He’s my brother’s biggest hockey rival…but he’s bringing the heat for me.
Nikolai
Hockey is my life, and I need to make this last season count. But when I’m forced to transfer to rival school McKee University for my senior year, I risk pissing off the captain, who happens to be the older brother of Isabelle Callahan: the gorgeous beam of sunshine I can't forget after our secret summer romance.
Rekindling our fling, especially with the forced proximity of us being on the same campus, could risk her brother icing me off the team—not to mention the fact that my scarred past makes having a real relationship impossible—and yet the moment I see Isabelle again, all my wild, burning feelings come rushing back.
Izzy
I have two goals for sophomore year: win back my old volleyball position, and forget I ever knew devilishly handsome hockey defenseman Nikolai Abney-Volkov. As the youngest and only daughter in a family full of athletes, failure isn’t an option.
But when Nik crashes back into my life, I can’t stay away from the broody charm of this grumpy athlete. I’m determined to guard my heart this time, but between the furtive hookups and the heartfelt conversations, the lines between friends-with-benefits and more begin to blur.
As we fall deeper in this emotional new adult romance, we’ll have to make a choice: fight for a future together, or watch it go up in flames.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Reilly's intoxicating fourth Beyond the Play new adult romance (after Stealing Home) brings the heat. With three star athlete older brothers and a retired quarterback for a father, Izzy Callahan hopes to impress her family in her sophomore year at McKee University by winning a starting spot on the school's volleyball team. Absolutely no distractions must get in the way of this goal, especially not the wickedly handsome Nikolai Abney-Volkov. Having spent all summer secretly fooling around with Nikolai, Izzy is glad to have state lines separating them as they return to their rival schools. But once Nikolai is forced to transfer to McKee, how will she resist the temptation of more intoxicating hookups and heartfelt conversations? For his part, Nikolai wants to make his last hockey season count, but playing on the same team as his former rivals proves to be difficult, especially when the captain is Izzy's older brother, who would never let him anywhere near Izzy. Reilly ramps up the sexual tension as these two try and fail to avoid one another. Izzy and Nikolai's love story is filled with angst and hilarious moments, balanced with deeper conversations that make the emotions feel real. Reilly will have sports romance readers swooning.
