When your childhood best friend brings home his new teammate... For your entire life, you grew up next to the Celebrini's on one side, and your best friend Addy's family on the other in North Vancouver. All of your parents were best friends from before you were born. From that, the "Core Four" started, with you, your twin Miles, Macklin, and Addy. Growing up, Miles and Macklin played hockey together before Miles switched to soccer, and Macklin's older brother (Aiden) was best friends with your older brother (Max). But, in 2020, Max gets into a fatal car crash while in college. Now, four years later, you are finishing your first year at being roommates with Addy at Stanford University, while Miles plays on the Stanford men's soccer team. Mack's NHL draft is coming up shortly where he gets drafted to the one and only San Jose Sharks.

Katy Jameson and Macklin Celebrini were inseparable in college-until the pressure of growing careers and uncertain futures tore them apart. She left for her dream job. He left for the NHL. Neither looked back. Five years later, an unexpected reunion interview brings them face-to-face in front of cameras, audiences, and every unspoken word they thought they'd buried. What begins as a media stunt quickly unravels into something deeper, messier, and painfully real.

"Not even the gods above Can separate the two of us No, nothing can come between you and I" Where Addison Celebrini, Macklin's older brothers twin, meets Will Smith, Macklin's teammate and best friend.

Every summer until they were fifteen, the Cape was theirs. She wore Rangers jerseys over her swimsuits. He swore allegiance to Boston with sand between his toes. Their families' neighboring beach houses in Cape Cod turned childhood rivalries into shared secrets, midnight swims, and the kind of friendship that always felt like more-though neither of them ever admitted it. But the summer they were fifteen, her family sold their house on the Cape. No warning. No last night on the dock. Just one final look back-and years of silence. Now, she's twenty-one, tagging along to a San Jose Sharks season ticket holder event with a friend, when she locks eyes with someone she thought she'd never see again: Will Smith. Taller now, sharper jaw, wearing the teal of the Sharks-but still the boy who once made every summer feel like magic. He's on the rise in the NHL. She's trying to figure out what comes next. And suddenly, every sun-drenched memory and unfinished feeling crashes back into view. Because the thing about first love? It doesn't always stay in the past.

Completed You only wanted to escape. When you spot your ex entering the ice rink, you panic, desperate to avoid another humiliating encounter. In a frantic moment of impulse, you run straight to the first person you recognize-Will Smith, a talented, easygoing hockey player. Without thinking, you beg him to kiss you, hoping to make it look like you've moved on. To your surprise, Will agrees, pulling you into a kiss that feels a little too real. What started as a desperate act to avoid the past might just lead to something unexpected...and maybe even something real.

You and Will Smith grew up side by side in your small Massachusetts town-best friends who became everything to each other. But when he left for the big leagues and you stayed behind, life took you both in wildly different directions. Years later, grief pulls you back to the surface when your dad dies, and the last person you expect to call is Will. But he shows up. And suddenly you're back to sharing silence, laughter, pain, and the old promise that maybe you'd find your way back to each other someday. It's messy. It's honest. It's holding onto the people who know you when you don't know yourself.

21-year-old journalism student Jade Callahan needs her big break. 20-year-old Will Smith needs to prove he belongs in the NHL. Neither of them needs the distraction of their instant, explosive hatred. But the more they clash, the harder they fall. And soon, the rookie and the girl trying to prove she belongs in a male field, will have to decide what they're willing to risk for the one person they were never supposed to want. will smith x jade callahan ⭐️
