Her hypothesis is about to meet its match.

On the ice, Jake Keeley is a cocky sports star with an NHL contract on his doorstep. But in his highly academic family, he’s the odd one out. Now, he’s a few fails away from flunking Psychology 101, and being benched for the season — unless he accepts some help.
As Jake’s tutoring sessions disrupt Eliana’s carefully balanced schedule, research, and even her relationship status, she realizes he isn’t another problem to be solved. Jake wants to help. And that might be the biggest challenge of all.

The Ice Out
Violet Amin, a third-year psychology PhD student and teaching assistant at Westchester University, just wants to make it an entire year without adding on any emotional wounds. Between her countless papers to grade, fellowships to apply for, and lattes to ingest, there is no time left to make peace with her past rejections — her father’s, her old boss’s, and her ex’s. But everything changes when Mason Hayes, Violet’s childhood best friend-turned-lover-turned-stranger, steps into her office and asks for another chance to be with her.
In his twenty eight years, Mason Hayes has gotten to know failure all too well. After a fateful head injury stripped him of his NHL career, Mason finds himself back in the very arena where he got his start in Boston as a hockey player, trading his past stardom for an opportunity to train the next generation. But he struggles to get his footing and battles imposter syndrome as a coach. When he discovers one of his players is failing his psychology class, Mason tries to help and goes to talk to the teaching assistant. He never expected to see Violet again after the weekend in Chicago that ended their longtime friendship.

Troped
Rose Thorne is a lover of all things romance novels. Whether you need a recommendation for an enemies-to-lovers, tutoring, sports romance, a fantasy novel that includes forced proximity and a ‘who did this to you?’ trope, or a book that has less plot and more….spice, Rose has got you covered. Despite her extensive skills in matchmaking (see: a planned meet-cute that landed her best friend the love of her life) her own love has left much to be desired. Determined to work on her relationship drought she sets her eyes on Nate Cameron, a known player with the occasional tendency of reading romance novels. The catch? Nate Cameron has sworn off relationships and is much too determined to stay single.
Like birds of a feather Nate’s best friend and captain, Chase Matthews, also has no time for distractions. Especially not the relationship kind – which he’s always viewed as an overall waste of time. When Rose learns of his fear of commitment she’s determined to change his mind…and strike a deal. If she’s able to get Chase to realize that relationships are worth it, then he has to convince Nate to give her a shot. Can Rose’s romance book clubs and fake dates convince Chase to give love a chance? Or will she have to admit that romance and relationships are best kept in fiction?
Can Rose convince this college hockey captain to take a chance on love? Troped is a sweet and spicy college hockey romance with some of your favorite book tropes: grumpy x sunshine, fake dating, relationship bet, friends to lovers, and many more.
