At Briar University, hockey is everything-and no one knows that better than teammates Garrett Graham and Logan Waters. Garrett, the driven team captain, lives for the game and the unbreakable bond he shares with his best friend. Logan, the sharp-tongued defenseman fighting to keep his scholarship and his demons at bay, has always had Garrett's back-on the ice and off. They've shared locker rooms, late-night road trips, victories, and losses. But when the line between friendship and something deeper begins to blur, everything they've built is put to the test. In a world of roaring crowds, brutal practices, and hidden pressures, can two best friends risk it all for a chance at more? The Ice and Us is a steamy, emotional hockey romance about trust, longing, and finding home where you least expect it."I've been in love with you for years... and I convinced myself it was hopeless because you're straight." "I thought I was straight... until I couldn't stop thinking about you."

"Fiero..." he slides closer to me and pauses. He gently pulls the mug away from my face halfway and leans in. His index finger is so close to the rim that I accidentally slide my tongue over it. "Were you fantasising about me when you wrote this scene?" ~Taeju (Chapter 1) Fiero is a shy and introverted romance writer. His flatmate, Taeju, is an extroverted sports therapist who has no shame nor boundaries. Together, they devise a plan to out-couple Fiero's ex, Saetbyeol who also invited him and a plus one to her ridiculously extravagant pre-wedding love retreat which, logically, should only be reserved for close friends and family. Fiero sees it as her way of apologising for how badly things ended between them. Taeju knows Saetbyeol suspects Fiero lied about moving on with a new, inseparable muse. How hard can fake dating be? Absolute mayhem when one's an avid planner and the other improvises his way through almost everything. A slow-burning homoerotic bromance to romance filled with innuendoes, hilarious incongruity of expectations and escalating disastrous yet questionable situations that only push them closer towards becoming a real couple.

"You know, just because I don't have a girlfriend right now doesn't mean I'll let you hit. I'm not gay." } But despite his firm comment from the past, Greyson's lustful body was now saying a completely different story as he needily wrapped his muscular arms around my neck. I threw everything I had ever known out the window when I became intertwined with my best friend in a heated, animalistic embrace. *** TLDR; What happens when a jock sleeps with his best friend and then pretends it never happened?

"Why are you looking at me like that?" My voice came out quiter than intended. "Like what?" He whispered, leaning closer as his hand reached out for my waist. "Like you're either about to kill me or kiss me." I whispered back, afraid to break the spell. He chuckled before tilting his head, his eyes never leaving mine. "It's one of the two." He said, now smirking. *** Karthik Kaur was an over-achiever- and it was visible. He did his best on every test, making sure to not miss a single point even though it was only his first year. On the other hand, a boy not so different, but very different, was in the same class as him- known as Ethan Dickinson. He was also an over-achiever and aimed for the highest grade. The huge difference was although that on one side, where Karthik wasn't afraid to show his 'nerdy' side, on the other side there was Ethan who did everything to not show his 'nerdy' side. Karthik finally realises that this 'nonchalant' and 'careless' boy is actually competing with him. And instead of fair play, he cheats! At evening, before every test, Ethan decides to disturb Karhtik in one way or another. Calling him from an unknown phone number, knocking loudly while he's trying to focus- these 'harmless' pranks were all a part of Ethan's plan. What happens when Karthik decides to prank him back, and the very harmless prank of his turns out to be harmful? But not to Ethan, but to himself? Is this book only about some regular high school kids, thought? Or does it go deeper? Read to find out! Ratings: #7 in Ethan 22/02-25
