kailea monroe falls into the orbit of Matt Sturniolo, the quiet hockey player with a short fuse and a softer heart than he lets on. Kailea spirals through bad decisions and soft apologies, she finds herself caught between being wanted and being loved. "Please, don't make me cry There's darkness in your eyes The saddest boy I've ever seen Oh, it's such a shame . . . "

Hockey Players Are Idiots. I know, my brother is one. My older, annoying brother, Dan is the captain of our High School Hockey Team. I loved him, but I hate living under his shadow. My plans for a quiet senior year were ruined when a cocky rival of Dan's keeps butting into my life. Matt Sturniolo is a player who expects me to drool at his feet. If he thinks I'll fall for his gorgeous looks and charm, he's mistaken. Note: some chapters have mature content, but no explicit sexual content. Swearing is common, and sensitive chapters are marked with trigger warnings
