Description
The first book in the delicious, icy-hot Campus Diaries series, a spinoff of BookTok sensations Off Campus and Briar U, by New York Times bestselling author Elle Kennedy.
Gigi Graham has exactly three goals: qualify for the women s national hockey team, win Olympic gold, and step out of her famous father s shadow. So far, so good, except for two little things. Fine - a little thing and a big, grumpy thing. She needs to improve her game behind the net, and she needs help from Luke Ryder.
Ryder is six-foot five, built, opinionated, rude . . . and sexy as hell. But he s still the enemy.
Briar s new hockey co-captain has his reasons, though. The men s team just merged with a rival program, leaving Ryder with an angry roster where everyone hates one another s guts. To make matters worse, the summer coaching spot he s angling for with the legendary Garrett Graham is out of reach after he makes the worst possible first impression on his hero. So, really, this compromise with Gigi is win-win. He helps her make the national team, she puts in a good word with her dad.
The only potential snag? This bone-deep, body-numbing, mind-spinning chemistry they re trying to ignore. It s a dangerous game they re playing, but the risks just might be worth it.
