ASHER
Hockey, studying, and school runs. That’s my life now.
After a tragic accident that took our parents’ lives, it’s up to me and my big brother to take care of our five younger siblings.
In between burning their meals and keeping them from killing each other, I’m supposed to get a college degree. It’s hard when I don’t have time to breathe let alone study, and if I don’t get my grades up, I’m in danger of losing the one thing that makes me happy: my spot on the hockey team.
Which is why when the new equipment manager offers to tutor me, I really can’t afford to say no. Even though I should.
He’s Coach’s son and way too tempting.
KOLE
As this year’s equipment manager for Dad’s hockey team, I’m expected to deal with sweaty jock straps and herding hockey players to their rooms at away games.
The job is easy, but babysitting Asher Dalton is not supposed to be a part of it.
So why, when his brother asks me to keep an eye on him, do I agree?
Why, when he’s struggling in classes, do I offer to help?
And why, when we’re studying, do I suggest a reward system that lands us squarely in bed?
Asher's trouble, I know he is. But there's something about him that makes it impossible to stay away.

Line Mates and Study Dates is the fourth book in the CU Hockey series by Eden Finley and Saxon James. It's easily enjoyed as a standalone.
Oh man, I love this series and this book is a great addition to the fun.
I love college romances. But I really love college sports romances. And this series is fabulous! Everything about it works for me.
First, it's a coach's son romance. I am giddy! And the authors play this out so damn well.
Second, Asher! I am thrilled to get Asher's story.
These men are simply fantastic. Asher's a moody bastard, the bad boy of the team. As for Kole, he's way more than I could have ever expected.
I adore the way these two are brought together and the connection that develops between them. Their tutoring sessions are beyond hot and do a wonderful job of carrying the story.
Asher and Kole develop an intense connection, and I adore all the highs and lows of their relationship. But, damn, the way all the emotions develop between the two had me all in. Love these men!
The family aspect. Omg. So sad. So heartbreaking. And so damn emotional in general. Of course, there's a lot going on with all the siblings and all of it is great. Asher's backstory is something that brings him fully to life, and makes him totally loveable.
Line Mates and Study Dates is everything I could have asked for. I love it all. These authors have once again penned a magical read. I can't get enough of the emotional connection in this story.
