Step into a world of hot hockey players, feisty heroines and steamy romance in this addictive spin-off from the bestselling Off-Campus! Read The Play now for the perfect friends-to-lovers romance! She's about to put this player in his place . . . What I learned after last year's distractions cost my hockey team our entire season? No more screwing up. No more screwing, period. As the new team captain, I need a new philosophy: hockey and school now, women later. Which means that I, Hunter Davenport, am officially going celibate . . . no matter how hard that makes things. But there's nothing in the rulebook that says I can't be friends with a woman. And I won't lie - my new classmate Demi Davis is one cool chick. Her smart mouth is hot as hell, and so is the rest of her, but the fact that she's got a boyfriend eliminates the temptation to touch her. Except three months into our friendship, Demi is single and looking for a rebound. And she's making a play for me. Avoiding her is impossible. We're paired up on a yearlong school project, but I'm confident I can resist her. We'd never work, anyway. Our backgrounds are too different, our goals aren't aligned, and her parents hate my guts. Hooking up is a very bad idea. Now I just have to convince my body - and my heart. *** Why fans love Elle Kennedy ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐! 'Delicious, complicated and drama-filled . . .

They think my greatest gift is my ability on the ice. But they're wrong. I've been hailed as the guy who has it all when it comes to hockey. Powerful people have invested their time and money, determined to turn my potential into their reality. The most influential of those people?
