For four years, Mina Hart has been the invisible force behind the university’s legendary men’s basketball team. Officially, she’s just the student manager. Unofficially? Every championship-winning play, every impossible comeback, every strategy that made the team untouchable came from her brilliant mind. The players may be the stars, but Mina has always been the reason they shine. Then a new management recruit arrives. Beautiful, charming, and desperate to become the centre of attention, she slowly worms her way into the team. She steals Mina’s game plans, claims them as her own, whispers lies into the players’ ears, and convinces them that Mina has become dead weight. One by one, the boys Mina sacrificed everything for begin to turn their backs on her. After one final betrayal, Mina snaps. She quits on the spot, tells the entire basketball team exactly where they can shove their fake loyalty, and walks away—taking every future winning strategy with her. The next morning, the campus is rocked by an announcement no one saw coming. Mina Hart is the new manager for the university’s men’s ice hockey team. The ATEEZ Ice Wolves are campus royalty—undefeated national champions, four-time winners of Best College Athletes, and the basketball team’s biggest rivals. Loud, cocky, ridiculously handsome, and built like professional athletes, they’re everything the basketball team hates… and everything Mina never knew she needed. Unlike her old team, ATEEZ don’t see a quiet girl carrying clipboards. They see a tactical genius. As Mina transforms the already-dominant Ice Wolves into an unstoppable dynasty, the basketball team begins an embarrassing losing streak, finally realising exactly who was responsible for all their years of success. Now both teams are locked in a bitter campus rivalry. The basketball players want their strategist back. The Ice Wolves would sooner fight them than let her go.
