Only Ever You

ISLAGrowing up, I knew three things for certain: I had the best parents in the world; I'd do anything to win Olympic gold; and Michael Thompson was my best friend. At sixteen, he broke my heart.Since then, figure skating has been my salvation. But Michael Thompson? He's someone I want nothing to do with. Too bad we both attend Golden Bay University. I'm an Olympian figure skater, and he's the future center of New York's NHL team, the Phantoms.Avoiding him should be easy—except Michael keeps showing up everywhere I go, determined to figure out what ruined our friendship. He might be the only person I've ever loved, but there's no way I'm letting him back in.MICHAELAll my life, people have told me who I am. The son of an NHL legend. The next big thing in hockey. The guy with the last name in the Hockey Hall of Fame.Isla Walker has always been the only person who truly saw me. Until lies, misunderstandings, and other people's meddling ruined everything. She left, and for years, I convinced myself she betrayed me.Three years later, Isla is back and more beautiful than ever. I could pretend I don't care, that I don't still want her, but I'm done lying to myself. Playing in the NHL is my dream, but it will mean nothing if I lose the one person who has always mattered most.Contains mature themes.
