When You Reach Me (Cold Hearts Book 1)

Falling for his teammate was never part the plan. But some connections are impossible to ignore...

Hudson Turner has always known exactly who he’s supposed to be. The golden boy. The oldest son. The dependable friend. The unshakable captain of the Augustine Academy Admirals. His life is built on discipline and expectation, and he’s learned how to stay safely within the lines.

That is, until his team takes in a French Canadian exchange student who rocks his carefully controlled world.

Pierre Lavoie is filled with raw talent and effortless charm. On the ice, he’s electric; off it, he carries the weight of a family he never truly belonged to. Sent abroad after a falling-out he refuses to regret, Pierre finds himself drawn to the one person he knows he shouldn’t want. The captain. The golden boy. The perfectly untouchable Hudson Turner.

Their connection ignites in split-second passes, stolen looks, and electric touches. But what starts as chemistry morphs into something far more dangerous, and far more inevitable.

Hudson is forced to decide if the love he never expected is worth jeopardizing the future he planned for. But as he’ll soon realize, not everyone is okay with being loved in the dark...


When You Reach Me has tons of angst, yearning, and one very defiled locker room... Suitable for readers 18+.
