Why this order?
Maple Hills is Hannah Grace's BookTok-fueled college sports-romance series, all set in and around the fictional Maple Hills university. Each book centers on a brand-new couple and resolves its own love story, so technically you can pick up any one and follow along. But the casts overlap from book to book, characters recur and grow, and small relationship beats carry forward, which is why publication order is the order we recommend.
Start with Icebreaker (2022), the breakout that turned the series into a phenomenon and a New York Times bestseller. It pairs figure skater Anastasia Allen with hockey captain Nate Hawkins after their teams are forced to share the campus rink, and it sets the tone, the setting, and the friend group that ripples through everything after. Follow with Wildfire (2023), which moves the action to the Honey Acres summer camp and centers Aurora Roberts and Russ Callaghan, with cameos that pay off if you already know the Icebreaker crew. Then read Daydream (2024), a grumpy-sunshine romance between hockey player Henry Turner and writer Halle Jacobs.
The good news for new readers: there are no prequels, hidden novellas, or POV retellings to slot in, and no separate spin-off line to track. The reading order is simply the publication order, one book per year for the first three. A fourth Maple Hills novel has been announced for 2026 (still untitled at the time of writing), so the series is not a closed trilogy anymore, but it slots cleanly onto the end without disrupting anything above.
Because the romances are self-contained, your enjoyment won't be wrecked by going out of sequence, but reading in order gives you the satisfying cameos and the sense of a friend group expanding over time. If you love this lane, the natural neighbors are Elle Kennedy's Briar U and Off-Campus hockey-romance series. Maple Hills is lighter, banter-forward, and very TikTok-native; Icebreaker remains the entry point most readers fall for first.
