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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExcept three months into our friendship, Demi is single and looking for a rebound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd she’s making a play for me.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvoiding 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.

Now I just have to convince my body—and my heart.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Realms and Roses Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51047043465511,"sku":"149663T","price":25.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/4624\/9255\/files\/9781999549763.jpg?v=1772663248","url":"https:\/\/realmsandroses.ca\/products\/the-play-by-elle-kennedy-paperback","provider":"Realms and Roses Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
