Selene Davis has always been known as the confident, carefree one-the friend you could count on for a good time. But beneath her bold exterior, she hides insecurities about her curves and wonders if she'll ever truly be enough. The last thing she needs is to get tangled up with Knox Sanchez, the emotionally unavailable, smoking-hot hockey star who's made it clear he isn't looking for anything serious. But despite her better judgment, a one-night stand leaves Selene wanting more, only for Knox to remind her it's just casual. Hurt and frustrated, Selene ices him out, determined to focus on school and her job at the library. But when their friend groups overlap, staying away from Knox proves impossible. Knox knows he should keep his distance. With his demanding schedule on and off the ice and a disastrous breakup that left him emotionally guarded, relationships aren't on his agenda. But no matter how high he builds his defenses, Selene is the one person who makes him want to break them down. But she won't give him the time of day. The more she pushes him away, the more he's determined to win her over. With nosy friends, unresolved feelings, and undeniable chemistry, Selene and Knox are headed toward a faceoff. And it will change everything for them, forever.
