Kyle Young is a 26-year-old professional hockey player. His agency reaches out and suggests he spend his summer teaching hockey at a hockey camp in Minnesota - a good way to fill the off-season while showing his commitment to the community. There's only one problem: when Kyle arrives, he's informed he wasn't the only professional hockey player invited to coach. He'll be sharing the ice with his nemesis, Luca Müller. What the media and his agency don't know is that five years ago, when they played against each other, they were also secretly lovers - a relationship that ended badly and left Kyle in pieces. Now stuck co-coaching kids for an entire summer, with their respective partners waiting back home, can they fight the inevitable pull between them? Or at least settle the unfinished business and finally let each other go?

Nate is in his senior year at an elite boarding school for ice sports in Canada. It's his last shot to impress scouts and secure a scholarship that could shape his future. Focus and discipline are all that matter-until Oliver shows up. Oliver, the son of hockey legend Rayn Harrison, transfers in for his senior year, bringing undeniable skill. The rumor mill claims he left his old school because of a fight. While his easy charm wins over most of their teammates, he seems to zero in on Nate, offering support just when Nate needs it most. To Nate, Oliver is everything he doesn't need: a distraction, a rival, and, worst of all, someone who sees right through him. Nate is torn. Is Oliver the obstacle standing in the way of his dreams, or could he be the key to unlocking something Nate didn't even know he was searching for?

In the small, hockey-obsessed town of Rivermount, Ontario, two high school seniors couldn't be more different-or more at odds. Jace Calder is the star of the Rivermount Wolves, a brash ice hockey player with a slapshot that could wake the dead and a dream of escaping his working-class roots. Ezra Tate, once a player himself until a devastating injury stole his future, now watches from the sidelines, armed with a sharp tongue and a blog that dissects every game with brutal precision. To Jace, Ezra's a pretentious know-it-all who's never laced up a skate; to Ezra, Jace is an arrogant jock coasting on talent without substance. Their rivalry is the stuff of school legend-snide comments in the halls, shouting matches at the rink, a feud that's burned since freshman year. But when an English project forces them together, the ice between them starts to crack. Late-night library sessions and grudging teamwork reveal glimpses beneath their armor-Jace's quiet drive, Ezra's buried longing-and their barbs turn to banter, their glares to something dangerously close to understanding As the hockey season heats up, so does their tension, a slow burn of stolen glances and charged silences that neither can ignore. When a shared night on the ice unearths Ezra's past and Jace's vulnerabilities, the line between hate and something more blurs, threatening to upend everything they thought they knew about each other. Yet love doesn't come easy in o their fears-of failure, of loss, of each other. With a supporting cast of loyal teammates, a witty best friend, and a side romance between two sophomores adding warmth to the cold, Ice and Ink is a journey of rivalry, redemption, and romance. In a town where hockey is king, Jace and Ezra must decide if they're enemies, allies-or something worth risking it all for.

This is a story about a hockey team, but above all, a story about boys. Brooks Myers is the captain of the Oakridge Otters and he's willing to do whatever it takes to hear his name called at the NHL draft next summer. Elias Somerset is a freshly crowned World Junior champion, forced to move back to the small town of Aspen to play for his father's old team. In Brooks' eyes, Elias is nothing but an obstacle in his way and Elias just wants to survive the year, and forget. Both boys live and breathe hockey. Both boys are lost in their own lives, but have to work together to win a Championship. Can they learn to play together despite their differences? Is there something in life worth more than hockey? In the end, the line between obsession, desire, and love is thinner than either of them dares to admit.
