She was never supposed to matter. But thirty days with her might cost him everything.
Mina
One minute, I was minding my business.
The next, I'd accidentally spilled a drink on Nikolai Volkov-the enforcer for the Detroit Serpents known as the Russian Reaper.
Worse? My boyfriend lost a bet. A bet that involved me spending thirty days with Volkov.
Now I'm stuck in a twisted game between two rival hockey players, and I'm the one paying the price. Nikolai is cold, calculating, and annoyingly smug-but he's also protective in a way that makes my heart race.
This was supposed to be a punishment. A power play.
But the more time I spend with him, the more I start to wonder who the real villain is.
Because Nikolai might be the one man who sees me as more than just a prize to be won.
Nikolai
This was never about the girl.
It was about the principle. About making Petrov regret putting her on the table like a poker chip.
But from the moment I touched her, everything changed.
Mina isn't soft. She's fierce, bubbly, and impossible to ignore. She challenges me in ways I don't like-and ways I crave.
What started as a win turned into an obsession.
She says she doesn't want me. She says she can't trust me.
But she forgets-I'm not just here to collect what I'm owed.
I'm here to keep it.
Merciless Matchup is a standalone dark hockey romance featuring a possessive Russian hero, a thirty-day grumpy sunshine forced proximity deal, and a heroine caught between the man who betrayed her and the one willing to burn everything down for her. Guaranteed HEA. No cliffhanger.
