Kellan O'Reilly's life is a delicate balancing act. He needs to have a stellar last season to get picked up by an NHL team, not get caught by his coach working an overnight job that he desperately needs to keep to help his family, and, adding even more to his plate, figure out why his new tutor seems to hate him on sight.

Bennett "Wells" Wellington III has done everything that he can to avoid tutoring athletes. So, when he's forced to help Kellan O'Reilly, the carefully crafted facade he's worked for years to perfect starts crumbling. Because even if Kellan doesn't remember him, he's part of the reason that Wells is unrecognizable as his past self.

Now, it's Wells that holds the power after all these years, and he has no plans to give it up. The only problem is . . . Kellan's nothing like the kid he used to know, and as he tries to make Kellan's life hell, he's starting to wonder who's actually in charge. Or why being with Kellan is suddenly making him feel more like himself than ever before.

As they spend more time together, Wells's commanding presence and dominating nature unlocks a part of Kellan that's like a drug to experience. Better than the sleep he desperately needs. More gratifying than the record goals he's putting up this season. And, honestly, the best sex of his life, hands down.

But Wells seems to hate that he wants him. How can Kellan make him realize that the two of them together could be the best thing that's ever happened to both of them?
