He's my brother's biggest hockey rival...but he's bringing the heat for me. Nikolai Hockey is my life, and I need to make this last season count. But when I'm forced to transfer to rival school McKee University for my senior year, I risk pissing off the captain, who happens to be the older brother of Isabelle Callahan: the gorgeous beam of sunshine I messed around with in secret this summer. Rekindling our fling could risk her brother icing me off the team--not to mention the fact that my scarred past makes having a real relationship impossible--and yet the moment I see Isabelle again, all my wild, burning feelings come rushing back. Izzy I have two goals for sophomore year: win back my old volleyball position, and forget I ever knew devilishly handsome hockey defenseman Nikolai Abney-Volkov. As the youngest and only daughter in a family full of athletes, failure isn't an option. But when Nik crashes back into my life, I can't stay away from his broody charm. I'm determined to guard my heart this time, but between the furtive hookups and the heartfelt conversations, the lines between friends-with-benefits and more begin to blur. As we fall deeper into a place we can't come back from unscathed, we'll have to make a choice: fight for a future together, or watch it go up in flames. TROPES Friends with benefits Hockey romance Stolen spicy moments Filled with swoons, spice, sports, and koalas, Wicked Serve is a don't-miss new adult college sports romance.

"Book 4 in Beyond play series an interconnected standalone series. Friends to lovers trope. Spicy and sweet sports romance. A summer fling turns into a real relationship. Hockey and volleyball are featured in this romance."

"Ok. So, second chance romance are not really something I enjoy and this was not meant to be that... But it totally was. I love seeing the meet cute and the build up and this book missed that. Also, there seemed to be large gaps in the story? Like the FMC ends up in the hospital and there's this big scene and you expect another big emotional scene and then chapter ends and it's all of a sudden several weeks later? Weird"

"Wicked serve is Izzy’s story with Nikolai. Wow what a story my new favorite out of the series. Nikolai started over at Izzy college after being expelled due his former teammates bringing drugs to a party and he takes the fall. He has a dark family past his father verbally abused him and physically abused his mother, so he has panic attacks and can’t do relationships. Izzy lives in the shadows of her overachieving family thing everything she does isn’t good enough. Both of them together though was a great story.."

"Isabelle Callahan has always been overshadowed by her three older brothers. As part of a notoriously athletic family, she feels the pressure to excel on her college volleyball team, especially since she knows she won’t be good enough at her sport to go pro like the rest of her family. What she doesn’t need is the distraction of her brother’s hockey rival, Nikolai, arriving on campus and reminding her how good their summer fling was.<br/><br/>⭐️⭐️⭐️ |"
