'Haven't you ever wanted something so much that it becomes more than a want?'
~
Aria Malik doesn't know what she wants.
She didn't know what she wanted when she broke off her third (sort of) relationship in the last month and she doesn't know what she wants out of her university degree, which at this point, she stills considers to be undeclared. Her friends think she's a commitment phobe and her parents are threatening to cut off their financial help if she doesn't decide on a major by the end of the semester.
Sebastian Matthews is the new captain of the hockey team and in his last year of university, he doesn't have time for relationships; he needs to stay focused. But when Aria comes along asking for help from the career centre where his dad works, Sebastian can't help but want to spend more time with this impetuous girl.
Choosing a path for the future can be a scary journey, but with a spontaneous girl and a determined boy, these two are sure to work something out along the way.

Enter Beckett "Beck" Rourke-a walking penalty who leaves slush, rule violations, and smug grins in his wake.
