Enemies, Roommates, Lovers—Oh My!

Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️ (3/5 – slow burn with great payoff!)

Call the Shots is a fun, fiery college hockey romance full of banter, tension, and heart. Bear is the grumpy hockey star forced to live with his brother’s ex, and their enemies-to-roommates setup delivers all the sparks. The thin dorm walls, witty comebacks, and Bear’s secret keep the slow burn deliciously intense until the spice finally hits.

The found family element adds warmth, balancing the heat with heart. Perfect for readers who love grumpy/sunshine, enemies-to-lovers, and a hockey romance that makes you swoon.
