Trivia

  • Like Roommates with Benefits, this book was not rated 17+ until after its release despite a mature sexual content warning in Chapter 1.
  • The featured ice hockey team, the Seattle Blades, makes their home at the Bytech Arena. In The Billionaire's Baby, Bytech was the name of the tech company founded by the titular Billionaire. This would seem to indicate both books take place in the same universe.
  • Chapter 4 shares the same title as Platinum, Chapter 6, "Knockout".
  • Chapter 5 shares the same title as America's Most Eligible: All Stars, Chapter 13, "On Thin Ice".
  • Chapter 14 was initially previewed in-app with the title "Risky Business," the same title already in use for Chapter 6. The Chapter 14 title was changed to "Compromised Position" less than a week later.
