Charlotte Whitmore doesn't do chaos. She doesn't do parties. And she definitely doesn't do Cole Keaton. As a former Olympic figure skater with a perfectly controlled life, Charlotte prefers discipline over distraction - especially the kind that comes with Boston University's infamous hockey captain and his reckless reputation. Cole Keaton is trouble. Hot, arrogant, and dangerously charming, he lives for noise, competition, and late nights at Allston House. And for reasons he can't explain, he can't stop clashing with the one girl who sees right through him. Their enemies-to-lovers tension is instant. Their attraction is unavoidable. Their connection feels forbidden. But behind the teasing, the sparks, and the slow-burn chemistry lies a secret that could destroy everything they're building. Because not every love story starts honestly. And not every heartbreak comes without consequences.
