She's my enemy on ice—a figure skating ice queen with a rebellious streak that makes more than my palm twitch. But after her ice skating accident, she's broken.

Love thy neighbor? More like loathe the hot, arrogant quarterback next door. Aiden Matthews is everything I hate. He's a conceited playboy who only thinks about his own gratification. How I ended up agreeing to go on a date with him in freshman year is still a mystery to me, but I should have known it was a trick.

Life was going well for me. I was on the right track: captain of the soccer team, grades were passing, and I had the respect of my team. Girls threw themselves at me. Then I saw her . . .
