Nobody knows where Araylia came from. She arrives at Briar with no famous name, no social life and a past she refuses to talk about. But on the ice, she’s impossible to ignore. An exceptional skater. A brilliant law student. And suddenly, everyone wants to know her. Especially Tate Tucker. The cocky hockey star is used to girls chasing him. Araylia doesn’t even look twice. So naturally, Tate becomes determined to change that. But the more he gets under her skin, the more he realises there are parts of Araylia’s life she keeps locked away. Her parents died when she was eight. She survived. She built a life. And she learned never to need anyone. Until Tate. Now the quiet girl everyone wants to know might be the one person Tate can’t walk away from. Because getting Araylia to notice him is easy. Getting her to let him in? That’s going to be the impossible part.
