The Ice Princess Belongs to No One

Liam Carter hates me.
Not in the cool guy pretends not to care way. No - he actually hates me. Calls me "Ice Princess." Sneers every time I walk into a room. Looks at me like I'm a mistake his school can't afford.
Which would hurt less if he wasn't tall, hot, annoyingly magnetic - and basically hockey royalty at Ridgeview, Canada's most elite sports academy.
So when his younger brother Nate offers me a way out? I take it.
Fake-date the sweet one. Pretend we're perfect. Give the audience something pretty to chew on - and keep the wolves (and Liam) off my back. It's a win-win.
Until it isn't.
"Tell me I imagined that kiss - that heat."
Because fake dating Nate? It's starting to feel real. And Liam? He's not ignoring me anymore. He's watching. Showing up. Jealous.
"Careful, princess. You're playing with fire."
Now I'm trapped between the golden boy who makes me feel safe - and the enemy who makes me feel everything else. I came here to escape scandal. Not star in one.
But on this ice, nothing stays fake for long - and hearts break harder when the game gets personal.
