Meet Anastasia Bexley (23) and Ethan Thorne (26). He skates the ice, she takes the pictures. However, this isn't how they met.
Anastasia (Stass/Stassi) has been best friends with Ethan's little sister Maddie since they met in 3rd grade. Meaning that to Ethan, Stassi has always been strictly off limits to him, despite how attractive he finds her. He never used to view her that way, but ever since he came back from college to see 18 year old Stassi, he's seen her in a different light.
Ethan is a professional hockey player so he's used to female attention, but he doesn't want it from anyone else but her. Between Stassi and Ethan, they have a joking relationship, it's clear Ethan likes her, but she's too nonchalant to admit anything. Plus, she knows a relationship with Ethan, would mean a chance of ruining her friendship with Maddie.
When Stassi finished her marketing degree, she found it hard to find work. But when Ethan's ice hockey team "Boston Strikers" needed a social media manager, he knew just the right person. Also, a little extra time with Stassi wouldn't be an issue for him...

But when you're the star player of the hockey team, your father is one of the richest men in the country, and you have the looks of a tortured fallen angel, not many people seem to care.

With her dad's support and her therapist's gentle encouragement, she finally feels ready to step out into the world - or at least into a shared off-campus apartment with a few strangers. Tentatively, of course. Totally doable, right? Only it's not that easy. The girls aren't for the faint-hearted, and that's exactly what Sophie is. Her struggles with personal boundaries and social settings make it more than obvious that she's weird - and that's not including her strange obsession. When the hockey team starts volunteering at the hospital where Sophie teaches art therapy, she suddenly has the perfect excuse to feed that obsession - one that just happens to have Conrad Taylor written all over it. But when an unlikely friendship begins to form between Sophie, Conrad, and Casey - a witty little boy who's been dealt an unfair hand in life - Sophie learns there's a lot more hidden beneath the rude, sarcastic, and cold exterior of Conrad. Maybe he's just a broken little boy with a heart that feels too much. *~*~* Grumpy/Sunshine - Bad boy/Good girl - hates everyone except her Romance with a Brooke Bennett spin on it😜 Book 2 in the Campus Kings Series, but can be read as a STAND-ALONE.

"Money, you and I both know just how much you need it right now." He says, staring back at me but not in disbelief.
