Oliver Kingsley OVERTIME HEAT (MM Romance )

ONE BLIZZARD. TWO RIVALS. A WEEK THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING. Reid Thatcher and Levi Cross have spent three brutal college hockey seasons trying to destroy each other on the ice. Reid is Blackstone University's golden boy-fast, flashy, and infuriatingly confident. Levi is Ridgefield College's defensive wall-controlled, relentless, and allergic to privilege. Their rivalry is legendary, their hatred mutual, and their chemistry... explosive. When a holiday tournament in rural Vermont collides with a freak December blizzard, fate intervenes. Stranded overnight in a frozen rink and then snowed in for days in a secluded cabin, the two enemies are forced into close quarters with no escape and nowhere to hide. Arguments turn into uneasy truces. Truces turn into long looks by the fire. And one night of heat neither of them planned becomes something far more dangerous: truth. As the storm rages outside, Reid is forced to confront the carefully crafted persona he hides behind-and the attraction he's never allowed himself to name. Levi must decide whether the man he's judged for years is worth the risk of opening wounds he's spent a lifetime protecting. But when the roads clear, reality crashes back in. Rival teams. Public scrutiny. Family expectations. Careers pulling them in opposite directions. What started as a snowed-in secret now threatens everything they've worked for. Overtime Heat is a high-heat MM sports romance filled with enemies-to-lovers tension, forced proximity, holiday intimacy, and emotional depth. Perfect for readers who love hockey romance, snowed-in stories, found family, and rivals who burn just as fiercely off the ice as they do on it. Some storms don't pass quietly. Some change you forever.
