Icebreaker

By A.L. Graziadei

Book Overview

A. L. Graziadei's Icebreaker is an irresistible YA debut about two hockey players fighting to be the best--and the romance that catches them by surprise along the way.

Seventeen-year-old Mickey James III is a college freshman, a brother to five sisters, and a hockey legacy. With a father and a grandfather who have gone down in NHL history, Mickey is almost guaranteed the league's top draft spot.

The only person standing in his way is Jaysen Caulfield, a contender for the #1 spot and Mickey's infuriating (and infuriatingly attractive) teammate. When rivalry turns to something more, Mickey will have to decide what he really wants, and what he's willing to risk for it.

This is a story about falling in love, finding your team (on and off the ice), and choosing your own path.

Customer Reviews

It’s not about the destination, but the Journey

Graziadei writes a compelling and heartwarming Young Adult novel that had me on the edge of my seat EVERYTIME I opened this book. The queer representation through friendships, families, and relationships is so raw. They really captured the meaning of “it’s not only about the destination, but the journey” . Must read!
