Cold As Ice by Laurea Matthews

A year ago, Alondra Brown quit figuring skating, and since then, she’s spent every day trying to piece back together the broken parts of the person she used to be.

After an impulsive night out, Alondra finds herself caught in a lie, pretending to be the tutor for the charming stranger she kissed the night before, now realizing he’s her father’s star hockey player, Jack Schultz.

Avoiding Jack becomes impossible once he begs for their lie to become a reality after admitting he needs her help to maintain his eligibility to play. Caught between resisting the pull toward the hockey captain, and the fear of being hurt again, Alondra’s surprised to find out there’s more to Jack than the front he wears as the playboy who doesn’t believe in love.

The lines of their unlikely friendship become blurred as Jack and Alondra struggle to fight their connection. No matter how much they try to deny it, the heart wants exactly what it shouldn’t.
