Passionate journalism student Kaviya Raj has only ever hated one thing in her life: hockey players-especially the kind who coast by on charm and a smile that gets them anything they want. 

So when Kaviya has a humiliating run-in with Damian de la Cruz-Maple Crest University's hockey captain and the town's Golden Boy-her hatred turns personal. He's arrogant, rich, and seems like his biggest problem is deciding how to style his hair in the morning. 

Or so she thinks.

When Kaviya is assigned to write a make-or-break feature on Damian for her final project, she's less than thrilled. Kaviya can't stand him, and he infuriatingly wants nothing to do with the spotlight.

That is, until they strike a deal that benefits them both.

But as Kaviya digs deeper into his icy world, she realizes Golden Boy isn't who she thought he was, and the story she was meant to write might not be the one that matters anymore.

Now, with her deadline looming and her future on the line, can Kaviya make the ultimate powerplay before it's too late?All Rights Reserved

The panic is slowly eating me up on the inside. 'Please lift your head, let me see your eyes' I pray inside my head. He can't be gone. It's almost like he hears my prayers as he looks up, his blue eyes as deep as the ocean depths, knocks the breath out of me as per usual. I close my eyes and thank God for keeping him alive. The right side of his jaw is all purple and red. A cut on the other side of his face, which is oozing with the red liquid. He suddenly looks past the black haired male to look at us, reassurance washing over his features. It's when he sees me that his eyes widen, and the panic grows by the second. He goes from a slump to picking himself upright. He's hurt. Badly. The black haired man spins around as we walk closer in their direction. All 6 of us stop as I catch a glimpse of the face. A deadly grin appears on his wicked face. "Boys, I've been waiting for you" He shouts loud and clear.

game changer by Mwritessforever

They're the golden pair everyone swears should be together-he's the football captain, she's the cheer captain. On paper, Theodore Grayson and Olivia Thompson are the picture of campus royalty. In reality? They can't stand each other. Theo is cocky, reckless, and infuriatingly charming, the kind of guy who never hears the word no. Olivia is sharp, unshakable, and has zero patience for his smug grin or his legendary reputation. He thrives on provoking her. She swears he's the last person she'd ever fall for. But when their worlds keep colliding-on the field, at parties, through friends they have in common-lines begin to blur. Hate turns into something hotter, sharper, and far more dangerous than either of them expected. Because the only thing worse than despising Theodore Grayson... might be wanting him.

Teach Me Not to Fall by TheNovelist28

Eva Graham is a guarded, no-nonsense social science major who studies human behavior to understand why people leave-and how to make sure she never lets the wrong ones in. She keeps to herself, avoids drama, and especially avoids campus athletes, whom she considers walking red flags. Cole Grayson is a third-year psychology major, a cocky ice hockey star with a grin that disarms and a fanbase full of puck bunnies. While everyone sees him coasting, Cole's under constant pressure-trying to go pro, balancing school, and keeping up a charming front to hide just how much he's cracking underneath. When Cole starts slipping in class, he's assigned a tutor: Eva. Neither is thrilled. She thinks he's a loud, lazy distraction. He calls her "Teach" just to get under her skin-she responds by calling him "Skates," with just the right amount of disdain. What begins as bickering soon turns into banter... then something softer. The nicknames stick, becoming a quiet thread that ties them together as friends-and maybe more. Cole falls first. Hard. Eva, scared of being hurt and shaped by people who've left before, fights it. Still, she agrees to go to one of his games-just once. But seeing him on the ice, in his world, adored yet somehow still alone, shifts everything. Then the bet surfaces. A stupid, careless thing made before he really knew her-and it threatens to destroy everything they've built. Surrounded by puck bunnies stirring drama, teammates with their own loyalties, and a past Eva isn't ready to share, the fragile trust between them begins to crack. Between jealousy, late-night confessions, and moments where one look says everything, Eva and Cole must decide: is love worth risking it all-even if it started with a bet, a nickname, and everything going wrong?

The Disruption Theory by DuskyNova

Book 1 of "The In Theory Series" I had two rules in college. One: Never get involved with a hockey player. Two: Never, ever fall into the trap of a college politician. And for three years, I succeeded. Quiet girl. Bookworm. Background character. No drama, no crushes, no problems. I had my books, my playlists, and a life no one noticed - exactly the way I liked it and also my hyper active squad. Until I finished Harmony West's If You Dare, and rage-posted a WhatsApp status that read: > "One thing Harmony West taught me? I hate hockey players. If one comes near me, I'm running the other way." I thought it was just a silly book hangover moment. Until a text popped up: > "Why do you hate us? We're pretty chill, not gonna lie." It was from Riaan Malhotra. Final year. Student council rep. Star hockey player. Campus heartthrob. And apparently, someone I once spoke to and forgot existed. Now he's in my chats. In my group. In my head. This wasn't supposed to happen. But then again... nothing disruptive ever is. dive into the story to know what happens NEXTTTTT!! All Rights Reserved®
