Asher Montgomery is campus royalty. As the star hockey captain and future first-round NHL draft pick, his life is a perfectly calculated trajectory of cold precision, high stakes, and easy distractions. He plays hard, lives fast, and leaves a trail of broken hearts in his wake. To the rest of the world, he's a playboy who has it all. To his powerful father, he's a multi-million-dollar investment that cannot afford a single mistake.
Then there's Iris.
A normal girl from the east side of town, Iris is just trying to survive her heavy academic workload and keep her head down. She doesn't care about the stadium lights, the jersey chasing, or the golden boy with the icy gray eyes. She's completely out of his league-and entirely out of his world.
But when a chaotic collision forces them into the same orbit, the friction between them sparks a dangerous, addictive fire. Underneath his arrogant playboy exterior, Iris finds a man fighting a suffocating family legacy. And underneath her quiet defenses, Asher finds the only thing that has ever felt real.
The rules were simple: keep it a secret, protect her scholarship, and don't let his father find out.
But when the empire strikes back, lines are crossed, secrets are leaked on live television, and the playboy king is forced to make a devastating choice. Win the legacy he was born for... or tear it all down for the only girl he can't live without.
