A USA TODAY BESTSELLER!
She s an honors student with ambitious graduate school plans and he s a jock with only hockey on his mind, but once their worlds collide, their connection is hot enough to melt an ice rink.
An ultimatum from Summer Preston s thesis advisor thrusts her into an unexpected collision with the hockey team s captain, Aiden Crawford. She s caught between conflicting desires of fulfilling her lifelong dream of becoming a sport psychologist and staying as far away as possible from the god-awful sport. And once she meets Aiden well, let s just say he confirms all her worst assumptions about hockey players.
Being the captain of the college hockey team has its perks, except when a reckless mistake by Aiden s team threatens to jeopardize their entire season. As punishment, Aiden s coach nominates him as the subject of a student research project. Participating is the last thing he wants to do, especially since the girl leading the project looks like she could wield his skates as a weapon.
Summer can t stand Aiden s blasé approach to life, and Aiden doesn t understand why she s twenty years old with a twenty-five-year plan. But their bickering soon turns to bantering and once they let their guards down, there s nothing to check their feelings.
