Title: Cracks in the Ice
-a dark hockey romance-

Summary:
Malcolm Reyes was born to be chased-on the rink, in the classroom, and at every party that bent to his orbit. Hockey’s golden boy with NHL scouts circling, he had the arrogance to match his stats and the girls to match his reputation. But when a quiet Lit major dropped her Kindle Scribe one rainy morning, exposing the kind of dark, dirty book he never expected from someone like her, Malcolm found himself hooked. She didn’t follow him online, didn’t watch his games, didn’t even blink when the campus worshipped him. For the first time, Malcolm wasn’t being chased-he was doing the chasing.

Now, he’s orchestrating coincidences and pulling strings to keep her close. What started as curiosity has turned into fixation, a slow-burn obsession he can’t shake. Because Malcolm Reyes isn’t used to being ignored-and he’ll do whatever it takes to make sure she sees him, even if it means dragging her into his world of hockey gods, messy situationships, and parties where she doesn’t belong.

Trigger Warnings:
Obsession • Possessive behavior • Manipulation • Alcohol/party settings • Toxic relationship dynamics • Language • Sexual themes

Author’s Note:
Ah, so he saw the smutty dark romance hockey book you were reading and now the campus hockey god is fixated on you. Congrats! You aren’t complaining much, are you?
