Callum Hayes has mastered survival—first through the loss of his mother, then through the trauma of finding his stepfather’s murdered body. But emotional armor doesn’t come without cracks. Enter Stone Wakefield, a wildcard on the college hockey team who’s seen Callum at his weakest.
Stone knows Callum’s sharp edges hide something fragile, but he’s not here to coddle. He’s here to win—on the ice and in life. The catch? His growing obsession with the guy who’d rather skate into a wall than trust him.
As their lives collide, secrets unravel and lines blur between hatred and something far more dangerous. Can they escape the shadows haunting them—or are they destined to be each other’s undoing?
