Ice Games of Love
Navigating reality TV, college hockey, and a scholarship narrative.

Welcome to Westbridge University, where the ivy is curated, the tuition is astronomical, and the student body is currently under surveillance. For scholarship student Olivia Rivera, college is a delicate balancing act of color-coded spreadsheets, mounting family bills, and hiding her financial panic behind a carefully calibrated smile. But blending in is no longer an option. The Campus Hearts reality production crew has descended on the school, turning everyday life into a polished performance—and they have set their lenses squarely on Olivia's scholarship narrative. With her every move filmed and course material balances draining her bank account, Olivia must navigate the relentless spotlight. Add in the looming presence of Philip Long, the theatrical face of Westbridge hockey whose posters dominate the quad, and Olivia's planned semester is about to unravel. Can she survive the cameras, or is the cost of playing along too high?
