When Sebastian Carson's older brother brings home a hockey rival, Seb's whole world flips on its head.
Seb isn't sure why Isaiah Okoye needed a place to stay, but his parents didn't hesitate to offer the pull-out couch in his room. Now, Seb's stuck living with a guy he barely knows, who also happens to be a talented center with a mysterious past-and a smile Seb can't stop thinking about.
As Isaiah integrates into Seb's family and tries out for their high school team, Seb wrestles with growing feelings he's not ready to name. Sharing a room, a team, and long winter nights slowly blurs the line between rivalry and something deeper. But with tryouts looming, teammates watching, and a closet that's never felt more claustrophobic, Seb must decide how much he's willing to risk-for hockey, for Isaiah, and for himself.
A slow-burn queer sports romance about first love, found family, and falling for the boy who was never supposed to see you this clearly.

Cruel King | 18+ [ON HOLD]
[18+] COLLEGE ICE HOCKEY ROMANCE *~*~* Conrad Taylor is an asshole - everyone knows that. 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. He certainly doesn't, not when he's too busy riding around with a visible chip on his shoulder. And boy, are they nice shoulders. *~*~* Sophie Pritchett craves normalcy after a lifetime of self-imposed isolation. 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. Mature 18+ (Language, content, all that good stuff) Enough character development to turn the devil back into an angel. New chapters every Wednesday and Sunday. *Big Fat Smooch* Good to see you again, my lovelies.![Skating back to you [Love on ice series][going through editing]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/312653420-256-k130472.jpg)
