From New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout comes the first in an icy-hot duology following two friends and the boys who complicate everything for them.

"No one could replace me in his life. I knew that. I was the friend who knew everything about him and whom he trusted above everyone else.

I was Kyler's best friend.

And because of that, he would never love me the way I loved him."

For twenty-one-year-old Sydney Bell, being in love with Kyler isn't anything new. They've been best friends ever since he pushed her down on the playground and she made him eat a mud pie. Somewhere over the years, she fell for him and fell hard. The problem? He's never stayed with a girl for longer than a few nights, and with it being their last year of college, Sydney won't risk their friendship by declaring her feelings.

Meanwhile, Kyler has always put Sydney on a pedestal too high to reach. To him, she's everything. But he's hidden away his feelings, drowning them in other girls instead. After all, Kyler will always be the poor boy from the wrong side of tracks, and Syd will always be the best thing he can never have.

But when they're stranded together at a posh ski resort after a massive snowstorm, there's nothing stopping their red-hot feelings from finally coming to the surface. Can their friendship survive the attraction? Better yet, can they survive at all? Because as the snow falls, someone is stalking them, and this trip may be a life-changer in more ways than one.
