When Vi asked for Nash’s help during a freshman year party, she didn’t realize how it would change her future. And after falling head over heels for one another, the heartbreak was catastrophic when they parted ways. Now, it’s senior year and for the first time since their breakup, they are forced to acknowledge those feelings they have been trying to bury. Violet has to decide if Nash is worth the risk again. And Nash has some issues of his own he needs to come to terms with before he can be the partner Vi deserves. But one thing is for sure, they aren’t going to let the second chance slip past.

How do I even describe how much I loved this book!? Nash and Vi’s story had me hooked from the beginning. The character development and tension was so well done throughout the story. I loved the heat the two of these had from chapter one all the way through. The spice was SPICING in this one!❤️🔥
Violet was such a relatable character for me. She was honest about her needs and wasn’t afraid to speak her mind. The way she handled herself while navigating this rekindled love was something I really enjoyed.
And our boy Nash! His brooding, touch her and die, quiet personality was so easy to fall in love with. And the more we get to know him, the more our hearts soften for him. The found family aspect of this book was also so touching! Nash and Vi are a top tier book couple and I truly didn’t want their story to ever end.❤️
I sincerely hope we get another book in this series some day! I need more from Lakeside U🥹

College hockey romance with a side of enemies-to-lovers and second chance? Yes please.
RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐STEAM: 🔥🔥.5Violet and Nash had a whirlwind romance when they were freshmen at Lakeside University. They had an instant mutual connection after meeting at a party and fell too hard too quickly. Unfortunately, when the pressure from Nash's family got into his head, he ends up breaking Violet's heart.Fast forward three years later and Violet gets an internship with the university hockey team. Her main client: Nash Richards. The no-fraternization policy between staff and players, her hatred for Nash that could rival the fire of a thousand suns -- surely, Violet has nothing to worry about, right?While I adored Violet and Nash, I think Violet was my favorite. She was supportive, loyal, and even-tempered. She understandably kept her distance from Nash to protect her heart, but she remained true to herself and her connection to Nash. That said, Nash did have a great character development arc, and Violet was the final key to completing the growth.They have fantastic chemistry as a couple, but I would consider their moments more on the steamy side instead of the spicy side.This is the first of the series, but it can be read as a standalone. There are no cliffhangers, and Avery Keelan does a great job of subtly introducing the other characters in future books.
