HE’S THE UNTOUCHABLE GOALIE. I’M THE GIRL WRITING SMUT ABOUT HIM. AND WE JUST BECAME ROOMMATES.
Ray Silas is a myth.
The Blackwood University Captain. The NHL’s most wanted prospect. A goalie so obsessed with control he organizes his socks by color. He treats his body like a temple and his heart like a fortress.
He has one rule: No distractions.
So when a burst pipe forces me into the spare room of his athletic dorm suite, I become his worst nightmare. I’m loud, I’m messy, and I eat Pop-Tarts for dinner. He wants me gone. I want to survive the semester.
I have a secret, though.
I write viral romance novels online. But my latest draft is failing because I have zero experience with the “steam” part. I’m stuck.
Until Ray finds my manuscript.
He doesn’t mock me. He doesn’t evict me.
Instead, he makes me an offer I can’t refuse.
He’ll teach me.
For “research purposes,” he says. He’ll show me what tension really feels like. He’ll show me how a man touches a woman when he loses control.
But we have rules.
No feelings. No one finds out. And definitely no falling in love.
But when the research sessions move from the living room to his bed, the lines blur.
And when my secret story leaks, threatening his NHL draft and my heart, we realize that the only thing harder than stopping a puck… is stopping us.
HE WAS PAID TO CONTROL ME. NOW HE’S THE ONLY ONE I WANT TO OBEY.
JACK
They call me “The Reaper.” On the ice, I’m the enforcer for Blackwood University. I break bones to protect my goalie. Off the ice, I’m a scholarship kid drowning in debt, fighting to keep my family afloat.
Then Arthur St. James makes me an offer I can’t refuse:
Move into the penthouse. Keep his wild, bratty heiress daughter out of the tabloids. Ensure she graduates.
In exchange? He wipes my debts clean.
It was supposed to be a job. Babysit the princess, don’t kill her, and secure my NHL draft spot.
But Aurora isn’t just a spoiled brat. She’s a storm in a silk dress. She pushes every button I have, begging for a reaction.
She wants to see if I’ll break.
She has no idea that when I break… I shatter everything.
AURORA
My father thinks he can buy my obedience. He hired Jack Ryland—a six-foot-five wall of muscle and grumpiness—to be my warden.
He thinks locking me in a penthouse with a hockey player will tame me.
Joke’s on him.
Jack thinks he hates me. I see the way his jaw ticks when I wear my shortest skirts. I see the hunger in those steel-gray eyes when he tells me to “behave.”
He wants to teach me a lesson? Fine.
I’ll let him think he’s in charge. I’ll let him drag me into the dark.
But when the contract is up and the secrets come out, we’ll see who’s really owned.
The game is rigged, the ice is thin, and falling for the help wasn’t part of the deal.
