About This Book

My name is Preston Armstrong, and I’m the most depraved bastard you’ll ever meet. I take what I want, ruin what I don’t, and live exactly how I please. That is, until I crash into the force of nature that is Marcus Osborn. Captain of our rival hockey team, and the perpetual thorn in my side. A migraine in human form and the one person who refuses to play by my rules. He’s my brand of heartless and just as deranged.
