Oliver Kingsley OFFSIDE ATTRACTION (MM Romance)

WHAT IF THE PERSON WHO BROKE YOU WAS FORCED TO BECOME THE ONE WHO CHANGED? At Westfield University, hockey is everything-and star left winger Jaxon Reid rules the ice with aggression, dominance, and a reputation no one challenges. Built for violence and victory, Jax knows exactly who he's supposed to be. Or at least, who he's pretending to be. When quiet transfer student Ash Callahan joins the team mid-season, he becomes an immediate target. Smaller. Scholarship-funded. Too calm. Too observant. Everything Jax despises-and everything he can't stop watching. What begins as relentless bullying spirals into something far more dangerous: obsession, guilt, and a pull Jax doesn't understand and refuses to accept. Forced proximity throws them together in locker rooms, training sessions, and late-night practices where tension simmers and boundaries are tested. Ash, shaped by years in foster care, knows how to endure-but he also knows when to draw the line. As the season intensifies and the pressure to win mounts, consequences finally arrive. Jax is forced to confront the damage he's done, the truth he's buried, and the cost of becoming someone he no longer recognizes. Therapy, accountability, and painful honesty become the only way forward-on and off the ice. Set against brutal games, locker-room politics, and the unforgiving spotlight of college athletics, Offside Attraction is a dark MM sports romance about power imbalance, redemption, and the courage it takes to change. This is an enemies-to-lovers hockey romance where bullying is not romanticized, growth is earned, and love comes only after the work is done. Perfect for readers who love: - MM hockey romance with high heat - Bully romance with real consequences - Enemies-to-lovers and forced proximity - Redemption arcs and emotional healing - Dark romance with a hard-won happy ending Because some rivalries aren't meant to destroy you. They're meant to transform you.
