Lukecarter قصص

Everyone thinks they know Luke Carter-Northview University's hockey captain, campus heartthrob, and future NHL draft pick. But the truth is, the ice is the only place he feels in control. Off it, he's just a guy trying to outrun the past and keep his future from slipping through his fingers. Valentina Reyes has no time for distractions-especially not the kind that wear jerseys and think charm is a substitute for depth. Transferring into Northview's rigorous pre-med program, she's laser-focused on success, not on tutoring a cocky hockey player who can barely stay eligible. But when Luke lands in her study group, sparks fly-and not the good kind. Their clashing personalities make every session feel like a showdown...until late-night library runs and quiet confessions start breaking down their walls. What begins as an academic arrangement soon turns into something neither of them expected. As secrets surface and futures hang in the balance, Val and Luke will have to decide: are they just a temporary chapter in each other's story... or are they worth rewriting the whole playbook for? A slow-burn, emotionally charged romance about love, pressure, and discovering who you are beneath the surface-Beneath the Jersey will melt the ice around even the coldest heart.
