He didn't believe in love . . . until her.



Have you ever met someone you hate as soon as they open their mouth? Freshman AVA MASON can relate, and no one makes her feel that way more than COLTON THOMPSON, the handsome center for the hockey team at Great Lake University.



With his sights set on a professional hockey career, Colton keeps his issues, and the truth about his family drama, under wraps. But when he and Ava collide, a fierce attraction blossoms between them despite their mutual hatred.



Their first meeting ends with a threat and makes Ava want to avoid Colton at any cost. Unfortunately, destiny continues to step in, and their paths keep crossing, leading to more tension and unexpected feelings.



As Colton uses harsh words and offensive behaviors to push Ava away, she discovers he has a softer side beneath the tough exterior. And while they both confront their demons, will they realize they have more in common than they think or will they end up hating each other more?
