Kairo Anders has never been known for being friendly. As captain of the hockey team and the school’s most intimidating senior, he’s built a reputation for his sharp tongue, permanent scowl, and refusal to care what anyone thinks. He keeps his circle small, his answers blunt, and his emotions locked away where nobody can reach them. Then Y/N transfers halfway through the school year. Bright, cheerful, and impossible to ignore, Y/N is everything Kairo isn’t. She wears colors loud enough to hurt his eyes, talks to everyone she meets, and somehow manages to find something good in every situation. While everyone else avoids Kairo, Y/N doesn’t seem intimidated by him at all. Unfortunately for him. When circumstances keep pushing them together, the two quickly discover they can’t stand each other. Kairo thinks she’s annoying. Y/N thinks he’s impossible. But as the seasons change and the distance between them starts to disappear, both begin to realize first impressions aren’t always right. Because behind Kairo’s cold exterior is a boy carrying more than anyone knows. And behind Y/N’s sunshine smile are struggles she doesn’t let anyone see. Maybe opposites don’t attract. Maybe they simply find the pieces in each other they’ve been missing all along. A grumpy hockey captain. A sunshine girl. One unforgettable senior year.
