Even when I run into my best friend's older brother... the grumpy hockey player who I had a crush on in high school.

He threatens to break down every wall that I've barricaded myself behind, but I can't let him in. Not when I know that he'll only break my heart.

He claims that he doesn't have feelings for me, so I'm left with no choice but to move on from the fantasy land I've been living inside my head.

But as soon as I meet another guy, Sterling Barrett has other plans...

And he won't stop until he sabotages everything.

Hockey is the only thing that matters.

There isn't a single thing in my life that comes above it.

So, when my little sister's best friend transfers to Wyncote, I add that to the list of things I don't care about.

After going out of my way to avoid her, my sister begs me to keep Olivia Davis company. Reluctantly, I give in, even though it's the last thing I want to do

But as I begin to get close with Olivia, I find myself going out of my way to see her.

She is my little sister's best friend. She isn't supposed to be anything more to me.

So, why do I find myself running toward her instead of away?
