Overview

All I wanted was one perfect Christmas. Instead, I got the King of the Ice.

Planning Ashford College’s Christmas party is my one chance to reclaim the holiday joy my family forgot long ago. Twinkling lights, hot chocolate, an ice rink... I had it all planned out.

Then he got involved.

Raiden Blackwell is a scarred, six-foot-three enforcer on the hockey team.

We should be invisible to each other. Instead, he's made my life a misery of shoulder checks and mocking smiles.

But when I snap and challenge him in front of the entire college, the game changes.

Now he's my partner in organizing the party he seemed determined to ruin. And he was supposed to mock my festive spirit.

Instead, he's cornering me everywhere, turning our arguments into breathless, stolen moments in the dark. And when a saboteur begins to tear my plans apart, my sworn enemy is the only one who seems to know how to fight back.

Is he the monster who wants to steal my Christmas, or the dark protector sent to save it?

With every stolen touch and furious kiss, I'm less and less sure. This holiday season, I'm finding out that the greatest danger and the greatest desire come wrapped in a package I never expected.
