Sworn enemies Garrett Graham and Jocelyn Reid were Briar U's golden athletes - and each other's biggest problem.
As captain of the Briar U hockey team and a future first-round NHL draft pick, Garrett was used to pressure, attention, and getting exactly what he wanted. Jocelyn Reid, Briar U's elite solo figure skater and three-time national champion, was just as untouchable, with Olympic dreams resting on her shoulders.
To everyone else, they were perfect. What nobody saw was how badly they were both falling apart beneath the weight of expectations.
On the ice, Jocelyn was flawless. Off it, she was exhausted from chasing perfection, suffocating under the constant pressure to never fail. Garrett knew exactly what that felt like - the loneliness that came with being the version of yourself everyone else demanded.
When a wrong-number text sparks an anonymous friendship, neither of them realizes they've found comfort in the one person they're supposed to hate.
What begins as late-night conversations and hidden confessions quickly becomes the only part of their lives that feels real.
With a promise to keep their identities secret, Garrett and Jocelyn build something safe behind glowing phone screens and midnight phone calls - a connection neither of them can walk away from.
But when the truth finally comes out, they'll have to decide if the person who understands them most is worth risking everything they've worked for.
Because falling for your enemy is dangerous... but falling for the one person who truly sees you? That's terrifying.
