Official synopsis Publisher
A steamy MFM hockey romance and the third book in the viral Campus Diaries series by New York Times bestselling author Elle Kennedy.
The TikTok sensation and instant multi-bestseller, as featured in PureWow’s “8 Swoon-Worthy Romance Books to Read This Valentine’s Day.”
Charlotte Kingston is living two lives–and she’s nailing both of them.
By day, she’s the perfect sorority girl, a biomedical engineering student, and the adopted daughter of an overachieving family. By night, she’s Charlie: a risk-taking daredevil looking for fun who finds herself chatting on a dating app with two anonymous hotties.
Will Larsen may seem like the breezy boy next door, but his congressman father is a constant thorn in his side. After a scandal hits another Division 1 hockey program, Will’s dad is determined to distance his son from it, hiring a journalist to prove how squeaky-clean Will and his team are. Which means the last thing Will wants is for anyone to find out he and his best friend Beckett Dunne–a laidback Aussie shielding secret heartache–sometimes share girls in the bedroom.
When Charlie finally meets them in person and realizes she’s been chatting with two gorgeous Briar U hockey players, things get steamy–fast. But all their messy secrets are piling up, and real life soon threatens to shatter the fantasy. With Charlie, Will, and Beckett all coming to terms with what they want and what others want for them, difficult decisions will need to be made.
Especially when lust starts to look a lot like love.
