They were best friends before they knew what love was. Now, Ivy Cooper might be about to lose everything-including him. Ivy Cooper has grown up in the spotlight. As the daughter of Columbia University legends and New York's golden couple, she's always lived with high expectations, an infamous last name, and a future people think they've already written for her. But Ivy has her own story to tell-and she's finally ready to tell it. Her first chapter? Columbia University, just like her parents. Her second? Falling for her best friend. Luca James-hockey prodigy, son of family friends, and the boy who's always been there-is everything Ivy swore she wouldn't fall for. Charming, loyal, infuriating, and completely off-limits. Their bond has always been unshakable, but the older they get, the harder it is to ignore the way he looks at her... and the way her heart races when he does. When Ivy's assigned to cover Columbia's hockey team for her journalism project, the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur. The pressure of family legacies, early NHL drafts, and old secrets threaten to tear them apart before they've even had a chance to figure out what this is. Because sometimes love plays dirty. And sometimes, the biggest risk is taking the shot you've been afraid to make all along. A friends-to-lovers sports romance filled with slow-burn tension, late-night confessions, and emotional depth, Offside Obsession is Ivy Cooper's bold, heartfelt debut about rewriting your story-and choosing love on your own terms.

He's the NHL star with a cold reputation--she's the spark that could melt it all. All Lilah wants to do is keep her head down, finish her online college course, chase her dreams of becoming a baker, and survive. But when a photo caught at the wrong time with the NHL's newest star, Cole Becker, goes viral, she's suddenly thrust into the limelight--exactly where she doesn't want to be. And when the person she tried so hard to escape from resurfaces because of her new popularity, Lilah has no choice to run to the safety of fame and Cole Becker as his fake-girlfriend. Because no one can lay a finger on the newest sweetheart of hockey, can they? But Cole makes her feel things she's never felt before and she wants nothing but to be loved by the boy that makes her feel beautiful and safe. Cole Becker needs an out, and fast. A stupid rumor built on absolutely nothing is threatening to destroy the reputation he's barely built. He's only a few games into his rookie NHL season and already he's been nicknamed the NHL's "Ice King;" scary, domineering, and arrogant. So when Lilah crashes her way into his world, he has no choice but to fake-date her, to both help his reputation, and to help the girl who's already got him wrapped around her finger. He wants to show her she's worthy of love. She wants to be loved by him. And when the lines between real and fake start to blur, Lilah has to let go of the secrets in her past holding her down and let herself love the goalie. But someone is lurking in the shadows, ready to steal Lilah away from the life she's tried so hard to build.
