Riley

Reign Thorn was my best friend turned enemy. But we both know this thing between us is more than just a rivalry.

I remember the exact day Reign and I ended our childhood friendship. One terrible accident, and I was to blame.

That same year, everything fell apart while my friendship with Reign became a rivalry of epic proportions.

He was the boy who held my hand when I lost my mom—the boy who taught me the love of the game.

Then suddenly, he was gone and in his place was a calculating, ruthless, opponent, both on and off the ice.

Reign set out to destroy my life, leaving me behind while he lived in his golden palace and enrolled in an elite, private academy, pitting us against each other.

Until one summer when our prank war goes too far and I decide to fight back.

Before long, the look in Reign’s icy eyes feels a lot less like hatred.

Too bad, I would never date a Saint.

Reign

Riley Conrad became the bane of my existence when she ruined my season years ago.

It didn’t matter that we were only eleven at the time.

She was supposed to be my best friend—the other half of my soul.

We shared an obsessive love for the game and she knew how much I needed to sweep that tournament to appease my old man.

So when I got the chance for revenge, I didn’t hesitate to put her in her place and leave her behind.

Once we were out of the same school and playing for warring teams, the divide between us grew bigger and bigger.

Until one summer, one prank and one favor, and suddenly the hatred I used to feel for her turned into an obsession she can’t escape from.

It’s time Riley learns…

All is fair and love and hockey.

Renee’s Five Star Review 

I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.

This is a dark romance. You really need to check the warnings in the beginning of this book. This book will contain triggers for some readers. This is a enemies to lovers, bully romance.
This is the story of Reign and Riley. I have to say that when I picked this book up I did not lay it down. These two do not have a hearts and flowers romance. But they do have one that really pulled at my heart strings a lot. These two have been friends since childhood. But things happen and the next thing they know, they are rivals and really couldn’t stand each other. I loved Riley. That girl gave as good as she got always. I loved that she just didn’t take what Reign was dishing out. Reign is, gosh how do I describe Reign? He knew what he wanted and he wasn’t afraid to go after. Though sometimes he is going to make you want to throw your Kindle up against the wall. However, I do have to give him kudos for knowing what he wants and going for it. For how possessive he was of her. Don’t mess with Riley is all I know to tell you. I loved that we got to go through the ups and downs with them and just like all teens you get to see them try to figure out their future. I loved how these characters were written. You do not want to miss this book.
