LAINEY I think I have the worse luck for first official days as Captain goes.First it starts off small, I find out the new team jerseys spelled my name wrong and then it turns to a big colossal fuck you from god. Tusk University's Arena got flooded during break.Leaving them without a rink.The biggest problem about that? We are the closest school in the district.So?Until further notice we would be sharing our rink with the Tusk Bears lead by their Captain, the one and only Paris Harper. PARIS Our arena getting flooded was not on my bingo card into my last season playing college hockey.With only a couple more months until I hit the draft,I was most certain I wouldn't have to tie up the biggest loose end in my life. Lainey Thomas. The girl I shouldn't want but can't help but have. The very girl who's been ignoring me since she found out about the draft. I'm not giving up on us.Im tired of the back and forth along with the break ups and make ups. I will have Lainey Thomas.

HAYDEN It was supposed to be a fun night out with friends.A party before the tournament.But all things went to shit when I ran into Sofia. The Russian second in command at Hillcrest has been breaking the ice around my cold heart for months. When parapazzi snaps some very intimate photos of the us, rumors start to circulate.To save my reputation and boost my family's fame, I'm forced to propose a fake relationship with Sofia. The closer I get to knocking down the walls around Sofia , the more i realize there's so much more to the Hillcrest's second in command. Could this Power Play be something real? SOFIA Consider my shock when the very girl who told me that I was the worse thing to happen to her approaches me with a proposal to fake date. I laughed in her fucking face.To think that after months of giving her my heart so crushed and things we can let bygones be bygones? Of course.It was Hayden Carter we were talking about.That girl how the comfidence and Charisma to make me drop down on my knees and beg. But not this time.If you want this Hayden you're going to have to beg.

THALIA I never thought that I would marry young.I had a whole plan of finishing college and maybe even going to the WNHL draft before settling down with a family.But as they say,Fate has a very mysterious way of working. And for me ,I've found myself married to Kira 'KP' Pasil after a drunken night out in Vegas.I have a chance at holding on to a love I never felt before.Well..that's if I can show her I'm worth it. KIRA Degree in Marketing but age 21. Masters degree in Marketing by age 22. And finally moving back home and opening my own firm but 25. I have a plan and set of goals I want to reach by 25.And at the bottom of that list?Marriage.Its the last thing on my mind and for some reason it was the first thing I ended up doing. Thalia Belmont is sweet don't get me wrong and we had a connection that was just sex.Theres no way she can be the married type.But she's swore to me that she will prove all of it by the end of the semester.And im scared that she couldn't be more right.

AVA I was the perfect daughter. The perfect hockey prodigy. The flawless sister. My entire life was engineered around mastery-precision-control. Perfection wasn't a goal; it was the only standard I ever allowed myself to breathe under. Starting at Amok College was supposed to be just another arena to dominate. Then she happened. Zara Lewis-a girl sculpted from chaos, stitched together with fury and defiance, a living storm that didn't bend for anyone. The longer she lingered in my orbit, the more my carefully built edges began to crack. Nothing about us made sense. She was the darkness. I was the light. And yet, somehow, she was pulling me under... and I wasn't fighting it. ZARA Perfection hides rot. I saw that the moment I laid eyes on Ava Solace. She wasn't flawless-she was a walking contradiction, polished on the outside, trembling on the inside. And I wanted her. Needed her. My mind is a hurricane of noise and rage, and she was the only thing quiet enough to cut through it. Ava was my downfall. But she was also the only calm I'd ever tasted.

SAINT I don't consider myself to be an envious person.Ive had everything I've ever wanted.Ive taken everything that I've wanted.There was nothing in this world that I couldn't have. Except one person. Tatum Presley. Tusk's hockey captain who was never fazed by me.She was also my in law by marriage.My half-sister married her brother. I knew I was going to hate her the first day I met her and years later that hasn't changed. But when my arena is set on fire, I have no choice but to practice and play in her arena.She thinks I'll play by her rules now that we are forced to be around each other. She couldn't be more wrong. TATUM Running away from her is impossible. Ignoring her gets you nowhere. And giving into her leaves you with a broken heart. Saint Delaney was a monster. She wanted everything that I had but couldn't keep it for herself. She was envious over my talent. Envious over my popularity And Envious over anyone else who had my heart. Saint Delaney was going to ruin me until I had nothing left. So instead I was going to take her.I was going to make her mine I was tired of this fucking game we had.

MIA I've been told my whole life not to trust people because there's another side to them-one they wouldn't dare share with the world. I never believed it until I met her. Kennedy Kingsley. Daughter of NHL legend Pierson Phillips. To the outside world, she was outgoing, charismatic, funny, and smart. But that wasn't the REAL Kennedy. The REAL Kennedy Kingsley was manipulative, obsessive, and a sex addict. When she discovers I'm in need of money to pay for the remainder of my college years, she corners me with an opportunity that will change my life forever. --- KENNEDY I'm in need of a wife.

Mia Cambridge-the quiet goalie who's been driving my body wild for the past year. She thinks it's just a temporary arrangement, a way to get my parents off my back. But what she doesn't realize is that I crave her-and I'm not one to play fair when it comes to desire. And soon, Mia will find herself ensnared by my desires, trapped in a game she never intended to play-one where I hold all the cards, and the stakes are her heart.

We've all heard the tales of good and bad, the tales of innocent deceit and her hero, the tales that despite their nature, show us the beauty in contrast. But it's the tales of pure evil that get swept under the rug. The tales of deception, where cruelty is rewarded. The tales that have you questioning who the real villain of the story is. There's a simple philosophy to most thing in life; two wrongs 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 make a right. So what ensues when you put two of the worst kinds of people together? Loyalties transfer, lines blur, and hatred ignites complete chaos. She's cunning. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘳𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴. She's dangerous. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴. She's evil. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘦. Or so that's what we're told.
