Players of Hannaford U Series by Michelle Hercules

Despite my last name being Kingsley, I had to work hard for my crown. I’m a gifted hockey player but earning a spot in the Hannaford U hockey team took more than talent.When it comes to dating, that’s a different story. I’ve always had it easy. There’s never been a girl that I couldn’t win over.Until I met Gia Mancini, a goddess among mortals, not only didn’t my charms work on her, she friend-zoned me.But our story isn’t over yet... moreDespite my last name being Kingsley, I had to work hard for my crown.

I might be a hothead on the ice, but outside the arena, I’m an easygoing guy. There are only a few people I can’t stand, and Blair Westwood is one of them.

Now I can’t get her out of my head... moreI might be a hothead on the ice, but outside the arena, I’m an easygoing guy. There are only a few people I can’t stand, and Blair Westwood is one of them. From the moment we met, I knew she was an entitled brat who thought she could get her way because of who her father was. Everything changes when an injury gets me benched, and I end up going on a school trip with her. She sees me at my worst, but instead of using it to her advantage, she helps me. Now I can’t get her out of my head. It’s driving me insane. This isn’t just hate turning into lust—it feels like so much more. But even if we can get past our differences, there are dark secrets lurking in the shadows, ready to tear us apart. That won’t stop me though. I want Blair—the former bane of my existence—and I never quit when things get hard. less
