She's chasing Olympic gold. He's the last obstacle in her way.

An instant New York Times bestseller from the author of The Deal, The Graham Effect is a sizzling college hockey romance with an unforgettable heroine out to prove she's more than a legacy--and the grumpy, off-limits co-captain who threatens to derail everything.

Gigi Graham is focused, fearless, and ready to step out of her famous father's shadow. Luke Ryder is six and a half feet of brooding baggage with a team that's falling apart and zero patience for distractions. Their deal is strictly business: he'll help sharpen her game behind the net, and she'll help him win her father's favor. But the more they push each other on the ice, the harder it becomes to ignore what's happening off it.

Elle Kennedy's signature blend of humor and heat creates the perfect read for fans of enemies to lovers, grumpy/sunshine couples, hockey romance, and explosive slow-burn chemistry with tons of banter and heart.
