I don’t date hockey players.

I never have and never will.

Which is why I’ve brushed off this specific player that has continued to try to get my attention. The thing with this specific player is that he can’t stand my brother. His teammate. And I can’t stand him.

Colton Wheeler is persistent, and even if it’s just using me to get under my brother’s skin, he’s determined to wear me down. The chemistry between us is tangible, no matter how much I want to deny it.

But the more I learn about him, the more I feel there may be a pull that is more than just physical. I want to continue to hate him, but it’s getting harder to remember the reasons I should.
