Skate Mates: A Sports Romance Series
Amber Heart
Peter "The Wall" Vance.
He’s six-foot-five of defensive muscle, the scariest player in the NCAA, and my personal nightmare. He scowls like it’s an Olympic sport, he hates my analytics reports, and he looks at me like I’m a smudge on his game tape.
He’s also the only guy on campus who can help me.
I’m a twenty-two-year-old statistical anomaly ( virgin) who freezes up every time a man looks at me. I need exposure therapy. I need a teacher.
I need Peter to ruin me.
Natalie Thorne.
She’s the team’s "Math Girl." She wears cardigans that are three sizes too big and speaks in algorithms. She’s annoying, she’s brilliant, and she’s the only person who sees the cracks in my armor.
When she asks me for "seduction lessons," I should say no. I’m the Captain. She’s the staff analyst. If we get caught, my draft stock tanks and she loses her degree.
But the thought of another man touching her? The thought of some frat boy tasting her vanilla skin?
Not happening.
I agree to teach her. One week. No feelings. Just friction.
But when the lessons move from the classroom to my bedroom, the data changes.
I’m not just teaching her how to be touched. I’m learning that I can’t let her go.
And when my dark past comes back to blackmail us, I’ll have to The NHL career I’ve bled for, or the girl who taught me how to feel.
HE IS THE NHL'S TOP PROSPECT. I AM THE VIRGIN WHO HATES HIM. AND WE JUST BECAME ROOMMATES.
Tom "The Wall" Vane is a control freak.
He’s the brooding, six-foot-five goaltender for North Haven University who treats fun like a contagion. He has a routine for how he tapes his stick, how he eats his oatmeal, and how he ignores girls like me.
He needs a massive signing bonus to save his family from ruin.
I need him to stay out of my way so I can finish my degree.
But when my dorm floods, I’m forced into the attic of the Hockey House.
Right across the hall from him.
And the bathroom door doesn't lock.
Kiley Salinger is chaos in a yellow sweater.
She’s a Kinesiology nerd who analyzes hockey players like lab rats. She thinks I’m a robot. She thinks I don’t have feelings.
She doesn't know I read her anonymous blog where she calls goalies "sociopaths."
She also doesn't know that when she looks at me with those wide hazel eyes, my control crumbles.
She has a She’s never been touched.
I have a I’ll teach her.
We made a deal. I let her fix my injured hip to save my draft stock. I help her get over her fear of intimacy.
Strictly educational. No feelings. Just… lessons.
But when the lessons move from the kitchen counter to my bed, the data changes.
She’s not just a distraction anymore. She’s my North.
But I have a secret too. And when she finds out why I really need that contract, the Wall might finally come crashing down.
