Juliette Sinclair has spent years balancing on thin ice-on the rink, around her friends, and especially around Garrett Graham. Their relationship has always been the same: sharp words, lingering looks, and a rivalry neither of them takes too seriously. Until suddenly, they do. Now, somewhere between late-night practices, crowded apartments, and stolen moments neither of them meant to want, the line between hate and something far more dangerous begins to blur. And Garrett Graham is realizing too late that falling for Juliette Sinclair might be the hardest hit he's ever taken.

Dean Di Laurentis could get any girl he wanted. Except Bella Moretti. While the rest of Briar falls for Dean's charm, Bella sees right through him, which only makes him want her more. Between fake dating chaos, messy relationships, hockey parties, and growing tension neither of them can ignore, Dean quickly becomes obsessed with the one girl he can't have. And for the first time in his life, he's the one falling first.

am i the only believer? there's something happening here.

Ella Grace Graham has spent her entire life learning how to survive pressure. As the younger sister of Garrett Graham, Briar University's hockey golden boy, expectations follow her everywhere. On the ice, she's one of the fiercest forwards in women's college hockey. Off the ice, she's exhausted from carrying the weight of a last name tied to talent, perfection, and a father who only knows how to love conditionally. Control is the only thing keeping her together. Then there's Beau Maxwell. Briar's star quarterback is everything Ella avoids: charming, reckless, social, impossible not to notice. She's known Beau for years through Garrett and the hockey house chaos. He's always been there in the background of her life, all easy smiles and late-night parties and sarcastic comments thrown across crowded kitchens. Until suddenly he isn't background anymore. Somewhere between shared classes, early morning practices, brutal family expectations, and conversations that stretch too long after midnight, Ella starts realizing the most dangerous thing about Beau Maxwell isn't his reputation. It's how safe he makes her feel. But friendships like theirs come with rules. Don't stare too long. Don't touch too much. Don't wonder what kissing your best friend would feel like. And definitely don't fall in love with someone capable of ruining you. As Briar's hockey and football worlds collide, relationships deepen, secrets unravel, and the line between friendship and wanting becomes impossible to ignore. Ella and Beau find themselves trapped in the terrifying space between almost and actually. Because some people become part of you quietly. And some loves arrive like a car crash: fast, beautiful, and impossible to survive unchanged.

After losing funding for the girls' soccer program, Izzy Calloway is transferred to Briar University's hockey team as their new athletic trainer. Now she's stuck dealing with Garrett Graham - Briar's cocky hockey captain who's far too charming, far too persistent, and somehow always finding reasons to end up in her training room.

Lorelai Daisy Slater was a quiet girl. She worked hard for what she had, put a lot of effort into her studies, and was ready for the real world. She worked hard to transfer from a little community college to Briar U. She thought it was gonna be an easy two years, work at Malones, get a scholarship, and get a stable job once she graduates, but the Briar U boys seem to be interested in her. Rory had thought she left it all behind, but when Dean DiLaurentis recognizes her, she knows it's gonna be hard to avoid him. She sneaks around him at Malones, the Hockey rink, when she sneaks in to skate, and even on campus. But how long until the boys succeed and get Rory to finally talk to them?

*STORY IS 18+ AND CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT* Alana Graham doesn't do hockey players; they're strictly off limits to her. Except for the one that she knows out of all of them she should stay the furthest away from. John Logan is her brother's best friend and teammate. For years she denies her feelings, pushes Logan away in order to protect herself but also... To protect him from her past that she refuses to share with anyone. Not even her two best friends, Hannah and Allie. Although this hockey playing mechanic not only thaws the ice around her guarded heart, he fixes it as well.
