Grace Williams has one rule: keep hockey players at arm's length. They're cocky. They're reckless. And worst of all, they know it. As a sophomore business major, Grace has better things to do than babysit a roster of over-confident athletes. But when she lands the role of running her college's hockey team's social media, avoiding them isn't an option. Her job depends on perfect captions, flawless photos, and making the team look good on and off the ice. Enter Mason Watson-sophomore, star forward, and infuriatingly charismatic. He's everything Grace swore off: smug, athletic, and far too good-looking for his own good. Worse, he seems determined to test her patience every time their paths cross. But when Mason's performance on the ice starts drawing attention from scouts, Grace is the one stuck shadowing him for exclusive content. The closer they're forced to work, the blurrier the lines get between staged photos and something real.

Since most people can't get enough of The Del Rosso family... This book is dedicated to one shots/scenarios of them! #3 kill: 16/8/25 #2 lovers: 29/12/25
