In Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, Briar Chatham is about to begin her freshman year-a whirlwind of excitement, anxiety, and the unknown. Between settling into college life and preparing for her first year as a Boston College architect major, Briar has enough on her plate. But everything shifts the night she meets Will Smith-a laid-back, charming guy who seems to get her in a way no one else does.
Will isn't just another college student; he's a campus legend. The fourth overall pick in the NHL draft, he's a hockey god with a reputation as big as his talent. Their first meeting is lighthearted, filled with teasing and unexpected common ground. One impulsive kiss at a party catches them both off guard-sweet,
exciting, and something neither of them expects to mean anything but will that change over time?
