The Rival’s Kiss: A College Sports Romance Where One Forbidden Moment Changes the Season

The puck hit the glass two inches from my face.

Maddy Chen is a sports medicine intern for Northwood University, the rival school Riverside fans hate on principle. Beckett Rourke is the captain of the Riverside Ravens—star defenseman, NHL prospect, and the most infuriating man she's ever met. When she finds him injured the night before the biggest game of the season, she should walk away. Instead, she helps him. And that one choice changes everything.

Now they're sneaking around, stealing midnight meetings in empty arenas, falling into something neither of them expected. But when the rivalry finds out, everything explodes. Her internship. His career. The fragile trust between two schools that have hated each other for a century. Maddy must decide what she's willing to sacrifice—her future or her heart.

This college hockey romance is a gripping, steamy, emotional, and heart-pounding listen packed with enemies-to-lovers, forbidden love, secret relationship, injury caretaking, slow-burn tension, sports rivalry, and a possessive alpha hero who will risk his entire career for the woman he loves.

Perfect for fans of Elle Kennedy, Hannah Grace, Meghan Quinn, and Avery Keelan. Start listening now—the puck is about to drop.
