Collide

By: Bal Khabra

Narrated by: Julia Knippen, Max Meyers

A USA TODAY BESTSELLER!

She’s an honors student with ambitious graduate school plans and he’s a jock with only hockey on his mind, but once their worlds collide, their connection is hot enough to melt an ice rink.

An ultimatum from Summer Preston’s thesis advisor thrusts her into an unexpected collision with the hockey team’s captain, Aiden Crawford. She’s caught between conflicting desires of fulfilling her lifelong dream of becoming a sport psychologist and staying as far away as possible from the god-awful sport. And once she meets Aiden—well, let’s just say he confirms all her worst assumptions about hockey players.

Being the captain of the college hockey team has its perks, except when a reckless mistake by Aiden’s team threatens to jeopardize their entire season. As punishment, Aiden’s coach nominates him as the subject of a student research project. Participating is the last thing he wants to do, especially since the girl leading the project looks like she could wield his skates as a weapon.

Summer can’t stand Aiden’s blasé approach to life, and Aiden doesn’t understand why she’s twenty years old with a twenty-five-year plan. But their bickering soon turns to bantering—and once they let their guards down, there’s nothing to check their feelings.

Critic reviews

“Charming and brilliant! Bal Khabra’s Collide, equal parts spicy and sweet, shines above the rest. Khabra seamlessly weaves her whip-smart banter, captivating cast of characters and laugh-out-loud humor into an endearing, timeless love story. Readers will cheer for Aiden and Summer from the first page, and think of them long after the end.”—Peyton Corinne, author of Unsteady

“Sexy and swoony, Aiden is a perfect book boyfriend.”—Avery Keelan, author of Offside

Too Long

Summer is uptight and doesn’t like hockey players because of her dad. Aiden is the captain of the college hockey team, and is a playboy. She is over the top grumpy and he is equally frustrating as the reader. Neither wanted to work with each other, but they both became hot and bothered by each other. The spice was spicing. This book was just way too long.

love the project idea of it

This book is very similar to ice breaker if you liked it and the story line is cool.

Best book yet

I e read every romance book like this one but nothing has left me speechless like this one. If you’re looking for a steamy but sweet romance and if you’re a teen read this.

I love this

I love the story line and the chemistry between summer and aiden even before they got together

This man

This man is everything
His love is so big. I just cant believe how much he loves her and the way he looks out of his team.
