Iced Out

Leighton U, Book 1

De: CE Ricci

Narrado por: Christian Fox, Liam DiCosimo

All's fair in hate and hockey.


My path to success never included an enemy as a teammate, especially one as infuriating as Quinton de Haas.

Clawing under my skin is his favorite pastime, only feeding the animosity between us as the years pass.

We’re as completely opposite as two people can be; the golden boy and the black sheep.

Constantly at odds or at each other’s throats.

The only thing we can agree on is hockey is our true love, and we’ll do whatever it takes to come out on top.

I never imagined that drive would lead me to do the unthinkable: falling into bed with my not-so-straight rival.

But athletes are a superstitious bunch, and when our hook-ups lead to victories, we tell ourselves we can’t stop.

Besides, it’s all for the sake of the team, right?


*Iced Out is the first in a five book standalone college sports romance series featuring two misunderstood rival teammates, pages of snarky banter, and more secret spicy times than any book should be filled with. Not suitable for anyone under 18 years of age.*"

Rivals to lovers - Say less!

This was so HOT!

Oakley and Quinton are high school rivals turned college team mates. They have had a hate/hate relationship ever since high school. Quinton is the team captain but Oakley, being the natural leader he is, feels like it is better suited for him. After Quinton fails a drug test, Oakley steps in the team captain role, but things with the team are still off. They can't win any games. The tension is thick between all players and the rivalry between Quinton and Oakley.

One night, at a party Quinton and Oakley make a bet and unexpectedly hook up and end up winning their next game. With superstitions high, they continue hooking up in fear that they will lose again. The undeniable attraction between the two is amazing.

Their banter is top notch. I love that both of them were able to bring each other out of their comfort zones. Each dealing with things a little differently.

I listed to the audio version of this book and absolutely LOVED IT! The narrators really brought the characters to life. This will be a repeat read/listen for sure!
