The Play

Publisher's Summary A brand-new stand-alone novel in the New York Times best-selling Briar U series! What I learned after last year’s distractions cost my hockey team our entire season? No more screwing up. No more screwing, period. As the new team captain, I need a new philosophy: hockey and school now, women later. Which means that I, Hunter Davenport, am officially going celibate...no matter how hard that makes things.  But there’s nothing in the rulebook that says I can’t be friends with a woman. And I won’t lie - my new classmate Demi Davis is one cool chick. Her smart mouth is hot as hell, and so is the rest of her, but the fact that she’s got a boyfriend eliminates the temptation to touch her.  Except three months into our friendship, Demi is single and looking for a rebound.  And she’s making a play for me.  Avoiding her is impossible. We’re paired up on a yearlong school project, but I’m confident I can resist her. We’d never work, anyway. Our backgrounds are too different, our goals aren’t aligned, and her parents hate my guts.  Hooking up is a very bad idea. Now I just have to convince my body - and my heart. ©2019 Elle Kennedy (P)2019 Audible, Inc.
