"It was because I fell in love with you and I was scared." 

"How can you be scared of falling in love? Especially when I gave you everything I had an all you did was throw it away. You never cared, did you?"

                                           ~

The stereotype for the offspring of a hockey legend is that they get everything handed to them. With Madison Gretzky it is quite the opposite. Not only is she the middle daughter of "The Great One" Wayne Gretzky, former captain of the Edmonton Oilers, but she's also carving her own path in her hockey career.  With her being a girl it makes everything ten times harder, but they always say you'll find a way to make something happen, right? 

Through her ups and downs of fighting through the tears and the heartache Madison meets Connor McDavid who is suffering through his own personal issues. The two don't exactly "click" and it certainly wasn't love at first sight. Although the two argue constantly and often chirp every now and then, the hatred quickly begins to fade.

Ice & Prejudice by V_Wardy
111 parts Complete Mature
Victoria 'Ria' Winters is the youngest out of all her quadruplet sisters; the one with the dark humor and haunting past. That's why she worked so hard for scholarships abroad to get as far away as possible. All her sisters had their own challenges, but nothing compared to Ria's past. When a traumatic event when she was 11 repeated itself when she was a freshman in college, it nearly destroyed her like the 1st time. She's learned from an early age to trust no one. Especially not men. After an assault by Vlad Wolves, the younger brother of the star hockey captain Nikolai Wolves, Ria was dragged through a brutal court case that nearly ended her. Vlad, a master manipulator and narcissist, turned the tables, leaving Ria to bear the blame and forcing her to transfer schools to escape the shame. Now, three years later, Ria has rebuild her life at one of the best universities in the world, focused solely on her studies and her future. But when Nik-who's always despised her for 'trying to ruin his family image for attention and money'-needs help to save his beloved place on the hockey team, he's forced to turn to the one person he hates most: Victoria. Nikolai had his own reasons to hate Ria. But when his powerful father, who has always had doubts about Vlad's innocence, insists that Ria tutors Nik in exchange for her fully funded graduate scholarship abroad, they're both trapped. Obviously, Ria hated that whole family for what happened freshman year in her former college. Especially Nikolai Wolves who testified against her, as if the moron had even been there when his younger brother assaulted her. Forced to work together Victoria and Nikolai's mutual hatred ignites into a battle of wills. There sessions are a minefield of cutting remarks, icy glares, and unresolved anger. But beneath the venom, there's undeniable tension-attraction. Beneath the anger and hurt, they begin to uncover the truth about each other-and about Vlad.

Book 3 of 3 Highly recommend you read books 1 and 2 first. Mel just moved back to New York City. She left four years ago after the love of her life was killed in a tragic accident. Since then, she's been trying to heal her shattered heart, trying to move forward from the loss of the one she planned her future with. She hasn't dated anyone since she lost Justin- it always felt too soon. Now, she thinks she's ready to start over, ready to move forward and give dating another try. It's time to live her life in the present instead of always looking to the past. Will coming back to the city that wrecked her world prove to be too much for Mel? Or will the city that stole the love of her life give her a second chance at happily ever after? ...... Liam has been called many things in his life, but 'playboy', 'cheater', and 'f*ckboy' are not included in that list. He's one of the good ones. The best friend, the big brother, the papa bear. But after years and years of concentrating on his career and his family, he finally thinks he's found what he's been missing in his life- romance. The only problem? The woman he's interested in may not be ready for anything serious. She's been through a lot in her life, including losing the man she loved more than anything in the world. To complicate matters, the man she lost was one of Liam's best friends. Will Liam be able to show her that new love can grow after tragedy? Or will their shared history prove too difficult to overcome?
