Cross Check - Enemies to Lovers on Ice: MM Hockey Heat #937045

They've hated each other for three years. Two weeks sharing a hotel room might kill them—or change everything.
Alexei Volkov plays hockey like he's got nothing to lose—all instinct, zero apology, and a penalty sheet that makes coaches tear their hair out. Miles Carver is the opposite: controlled, disciplined, and gunning for captain. When a locker room fight between them goes viral, management delivers an ultimatum: fix it or sit.

The solution? Two weeks on the road. Same hotel room. Mandatory team-building.

What could possibly go wrong?

Turns out, everything. Because the line between hate and want is thinner than either of them realized, and proximity has a way of revealing truths they've both spent years hiding. Lex sees past Miles's perfect facade to the man underneath—brilliant, lonely, desperate to stop performing. Miles discovers that Lex's chaos isn't reckless—it's brave.

But falling for your teammate is one thing. Being brave enough to choose him when careers, captaincies, and coming out are on the line? That's another game entirely.
