Beyond the Lines by Clara West

Lea arrives at Pine Barren University with three rules: focus on art, avoid distractions, and absolutely no hockey players—especially her brother’s teammates.

But when a late-night diner conversation with Declan Andrews ends in a kiss that makes her question everything, her rules start to crumble.

Declan may be the star of the team with NHL dreams, but behind the uniform he hides a passion for painting and a longing for someone to see the real him. Too bad he’s also keeping a big secret—he plays alongside her brother.

With sparks flying, banter sharp enough to cut, and a forced project that pushes them closer than either wants to admit, Lea and Declan’s story is a delicious mix of enemies-to-lovers, forbidden temptation, and slow-burn steam that’s impossible to resist.
