'Vulnerable, swoony and brimming with unforgettable moments' Elena Armas, New York Times bestselling author of The Spanish Love Deception

He's the star hockey player. She's the coach's daughter. Will they embrace their chemistry?

All Scarlett Kilner wants for her senior year is to overcome her bad reputation and make her father proud. But when Kian Ishida - one of her dad's star hockey players - joins her study group, things get complicated.

Kian is all about parties, hockey and living in the moment. But when he realises he's headed to the National Hockey League without his degree - his late dad's one wish for him - he's determined to turn things around.

As Scarlett helps Kian, their study sessions turn into a connection neither of them expected. Kian has to decide what's more important: the dream he's worked for his whole life or the girl he never saw coming.
