Icy Control

Jake Reid has spent years earning every shift, goal, and ounce of respect in the Boston Bobcats' locker room. Then his father buys the team. Suddenly he's no longer the hardworking player who helped his team win Stanley Cups, but the new owner's son who hasn't earned his place. The spotlight is brutal, the pressure to prove he belongs is relentless, and Jake's carefully controlled world is starting to crack.

Sophie Davies has spent years waiting for the right time, the right guy, and the right moment to stop watching her life happen from the sidelines. Or more accurately, from the stands cheering for a hockey player she's never let herself want out loud. But when she loses her apartment and needs a place to stay, Jake offers his spare room.

Starting over pushes Sophie to do the one bold thing she’s never dared to do . . . ask Jake for exactly what she wants: a secret fling with no strings and no feelings.

Except living together makes it impossible to keep things simple. What's supposed to be casual starts to feel a lot like falling. As the season intensifies and Jake fights to prove he belongs, the one thing he can't control is how much he needs Sophie. But will the girl who's never asked for anything fight for forever with the guy who was never supposed to be hers?

In a world where control is everything, sometimes the only way to win is to stop playing it safe.
