You came to Briar University with one goal: skate, study, and never let another person get close enough to break your heart again. After a betrayal leaves you questioning everything you thought you knew about love, relationships become the last thing on your mind. Then three hockey players keep getting in your way. Garrett Graham. Dean Di Laurentis. John Logan. They’re loud, frustrating, and constantly stealing your ice time. Every encounter turns into another argument, another sarcastic comment, another reason to stay as far away from them as possible. But somewhere between crowded parties, late-night diner runs, impossible classes, and an endless stream of teasing, the people you swore you’d never like slowly become the ones you can’t imagine your days without. College is supposed to be about making memories. No one ever tells you how messy those memories can become. Because Briar is full of secrets, rumors spread faster than the puck on the ice, and the past has a habit of showing up when you finally start moving forward. Sometimes the best things in life begin with the people you never wanted to meet.
