The Ex Games

Now with a brand-new look! Things heat up on the slopes when an ex-couple face off in a battle of the sexes snowboarding competition in this young adult rom-com perfect for fans of Heart Check by Emily Charlotte and The Fast Track by Angelica Cheng. Hayden and Nick used to be a hot item, but their brief affair ended with a highly publicized breakup. Now the two are just friends, excluding the occasional flirtation. When Hayden wins the girls’ division of a local snowboarding competition, Nick is unimpressed, claiming that Hayden wouldn’t have a chance against a guy. Hayden calls Nick’s bluff and challenges him to a head-to-head boarding contest. Their mutual friends quickly take sides, the girls on Hayden’s and the boys on Nick’s, making for an all-out battle of the sexes. This not-so-friendly competition is bound to get heated—and they might end up igniting an old flame.
