She doesn't do attachment. He doesn't do depth. One night in a big city was supposed to be just that-no promises, no fallout. But in this AU, where Antoine never injured his shoulder or went to Lana's retreat, he's still the cocky playboy coasting on charm... until a sharp, guarded woman throws him off his game. She sees right through him-and doesn't care. The chemistry is instant. The rules are simple: just one night. But somewhere between the banter, the heat, and a little too much honesty at 3 a.m., something shifts. This standalone AU is nine chapters of steam, tension, and bittersweet pull. Expect late-night confessions, emotional sparks, and yes... legendary stamina. 🔥Based on Too Hot to Handle: Season 2 from the Netflix mobile game.🔥 ****Originally published on AO3 and Wattpad under the username Slowburn69.

In this Pucked sequel, Antoine and Zoe navigate a new set of challenges beyond the seductive bubble of Lana's retreat. Now, in the real world, the heat between them is undeniable, but so are the obstacles. Distance, careers, and the harsh reality of life away from paradise test their connection like never before. As their worlds pull them in different directions, they must decide if their bond is strong enough to survive outside the retreat's protective walls. Can they overcome the temptations and pressures of everyday life, or will the real world be the ultimate test of their relationship? 🔥Based on Too Hot to Handle: Season 2 from the Netflix mobile game.🔥 Note: This multi-chapter story is a sequel to my Pucked series but it can also be read as a continuation of the canon storyline if you played Antoine's loyal route. While the previous one-shots in Pucked offer extra context (and some spicy content), they're not essential to understand or enjoy this installment. All chapters are in third person, switching between Antoine's and Zoe's POVs, with lots of hockey and fashion world moments. You'll meet some fun new original characters, plus a few surprise cameos from familiar faces! ****Originally published on AO3 and Wattpad under the username Slowburn69.

Navigating temptation, loyalty, and emotional growth, he gradually begins to shed his old habits and realizes he wants something real-with her. 🔥Based on Too Hot to Handle: Season 2 from the Netflix mobile game.🔥 Note: This collection is a series of standalone pieces rather than a continuous multi-chapter story. While some parts expand on existing game scenes, others reimagine key moments or introduce completely new bonus scenes. I've structured it this way to explore different angles of the story without being tied to a strict timeline or getting too deep into other characters' dramas. All the pieces are from Antoine's POV, so you can expect plenty of hockey references. ****Originally published on AO3 and Wattpad under the username Slowburn69.
