Living with my brother’s overly protective best friend is the worst idea ever. Especially when the grumpy hockey captain absolutely refuses to put a shirt on.

Guess what? I’m a mess.

I came to Chilmore for a fresh start after my ex torched my confidence, and moving into my brother’s best friend’s apartment wasn’t part of the plan.

Samuel Voss, captain of the Snow Leopards, just so happens to be the strictest, grumpiest, most-infuriating control-freak I’ve ever met. Seriously. This man lives and dies by the rules, on and off the ice.

But somewhere between the quiet snacks left at my door, and testing his patience with my art supplies scattered all over his apartment, there’s a side to Samuel I didn’t expect.

For all the grumpy sighs and endless lectures, he’s becoming more than just the temporary roommate I secretly stare at whenever he’s shirtless.

Like how he’s always there when things get tough. And how his brooding silences somehow feel louder than any words anyone has ever said. And the way he looks at me when he thinks I don’t notice.

The problem is, he’s forgetting his number one rule: I’m off-limits.

Samuel and I both know this can’t happen.

Now we’re one step away from disaster. One near kiss away from ruining everything. Samuel has his rules. I swore I’d never trust a man like him again.

Could breaking every rule we’ve made be exactly what saves us both?

Cold Shoulder is a laugh-out-loud, high-spice sports romcom featuring grumpy/sunshine forced-proximity chaos, best friend’s little sister steam, shared luxury apartments with late-night confessions, and the brooding hockey captain determined to protect her… even from himself.
