She's ice, he's fire. They've hated each other for years. But sometimes the only way to heal is through the person you least expect.
Amy Poon has everything, money, grades, a penthouse on the Upper East Side. But with her parents always away and her best friend's betrayal still fresh, Amy's world feels emptier than ever. She doesn't trust easily, and she certainly doesn't forgive.
Kaiden Reyes had everything until a torn ACL ripped basketball away. The cocky point guard from Washington Heights is spiraling, clutching pills to numb both the pain in his knee and the fear he'll never play again.
When the two are forced together on a winter trip, old grudges flare. They fight, they push, they swear they can't stand each other. But between late-night board games, firelight confessions, and the secrets they've both tried to bury, the ice start to crack.

Welcome to the second book in the Milton Starting Five series! This story follows Amy Poon and Kaiden Reyes.
The first book in the series Becoming The One focused on Maliyah Thompson and Liam Weber's love story!
To all the readers who came over from Becoming the One, thank you so much for sticking with the series and giving this next story a chance. Your support means everything, and I'm so excited to share what comes next with you.
If you're new here, I recommend checking out Becoming The One first for a little extra background on these characters. This book takes place directly after the events in book 1 builds on the storyline that already exists, however, you do not need to read Becoming The One before this!
