Hometown Heat by Declan Rhodes

After his first year at the University of Maine, Ziggy Knickerbocker returns to the small town of Whistleport, Maine, where he was once the hometown hockey hero. Now a literature major and aspiring poet, Ziggy is ready for a summer of reflection and a break from the pressures of college life. But when an unexpected heatwave strikes, the town’s newly renovated ice arena becomes his sanctuary.
Ziggy’s plans for a quiet summer are turned upside down when he finds himself sharing the rink in his hometown arena with Kade Langston, the star forward for the University of New Hampshire—University of Maine’s most bitter hockey rivals. Sparks fly, but not just the competitive kind. As they clash on the ice, the heat between them begins to build, melting away old grudges and igniting an attraction neither can deny.
