| Camrose U Book 2 |
I’m obsessed with the prettiest, smartest guy on campus—and he’s never even looked my way.
Killian
It’s my last season playing college hockey, and I’m determined to help get the team all the way to championships this year. Unfortunately, whether I actually get to be on the ice depends on how well I do in statistics. I need a tutor, and the one person my professor swears can help me refuses to even give me the time of day.
I’ve been into Maddox since the first time I saw him, but he’s not into jocks—and he doesn’t even acknowledge my existence. When I finally ask if he’ll tutor me, he shuts me down immediately.
But I’m not one to give up. This might be my last chance to get close to him, and I can’t let that slip away.
Maddox
I don’t do jocks. I don’t befriend them, date them, or tutor them. Not after… everything.
But when Killian, one of the Camrose Rams’ star players, barges into my life, avoiding him becomes impossible. He’s loud, charming, and way too persistent—and he looks at me as if I hung the moon. Somehow, I end up getting roped into tutoring him. And letting him into parts of my life I’ve kept off-limits.
As much as I try to keep my distance, it’s impossible. He’s everything I swore to stay away from, and exactly what I can’t seem to resist.
Off the Boards is an M/M nerd/jock romance, perfect for readers who like study sessions brimming with tension, flirty and overprotective hockey players, and a tutor who’s very close to breaking his no-jocks rule.

My Review: 4/5. Stars
Killian has been obsessed with Maddox since he first saw him. He’s gorgeous and smart but has yet to look Killian’s way. And though Killian pesters his teammate, Caleb, to introduce him to Maddox, since they are best friends, Caleb won’t do it. But when Killian is having trouble in his stats class and Maddox is the TA, he jumps at the chance to be tutored by him. But convincing Maddox is a challenge. And just when he loses hope of passing and getting to know Maddox, Maddox agrees. Bit by bit Maddox coaxes Maddox to get to know one another. But can he convince him to give them a chance to date? Maddox doesn’t date jocks. Not after high school where he was bullied and it only stopped because his best friend got involved. Either way, he’ll stay far away. But staying away from Killian is impossible. How can Maddox stay strong when Killian is sweet and kind and charming and just always so understanding? Maddox’s walls are only so thick. And it’s only a matter of time until they come crumbling down. These two were a lot of fun. I was excited to see how Killian was gone win over Maddox. And I loved that even though they were so different, they fit very well together. They cared for one another a lot and it really showed the longer they spent time together. A great story all around and I can’t wait for the next one!
