The Risk

Raised as the prized asset of a ruthless corporate dynasty, Gracie is months away from being locked into a life she never wanted. Her parents expect perfection; her brother expects obedience. But when a late-entry tryout for Briar University's figure skating team and a music scholarship audition fall into her lap, Gracie takes the ultimate leap. She turns her back on her family's empire, stepping onto campus with nothing but her skates, her sheet music, and a countdown to make or break her own future.
She needs to stay focused. She needs to prove she can survive on her own.

She doesn't need Dean Di Laurentis.

Dean is everything Gracie should avoid: a charismatic hockey star with a killer smile, a playboy reputation, and a habit of getting under her skin. As Gracie struggles to keep her head above water, Dean steps in, determined to break down the walls around the guarded heiress.

But with her family waiting for her to fail, a pushy music rival sniffing around, and unspoken tension simmering inside the hockey house, Gracie quickly learns that stepping out of her family's shadow comes with a heavy price.
Freedom was always going to be a gamble. She just didn't expect Dean to be the highest stake.
