A Companion Novella to Breaking the Ice When the lights dim and the world isn't watching, the hardest battles are often the quietest. Connor Bedard has spent his life focused on the game - rising through the ranks with talent, grit, and silence. But when teammate Tyson steps into his orbit, with sharp wit and unexpected warmth, something begins to shift. What starts as tension in the locker room turns into late-night texts, shared secrets, and a pull Connor can't ignore. Told in alternating perspectives, Behind the Glass follows two young hockey players as they navigate the pressures of identity, the weight of expectations, and the quiet, burning truth of first love. As Jack Hughes begins to open a path toward visibility in the league, Connor and Tyson are left to face their own fears, forge their own trust, and decide whether being seen is worth the risk. Heartfelt, slow-burning, and honest, Behind the Glass is about the moments between games, behind closed doors, and inside hearts that dare to love - even when the world isn't ready.

Title from "Long Live" by Taylor Swift Hockey is brutal. The media is relentless. The pressure is unbearable. But through every loss, every trade rumor, every silent battle no one else sees-Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith hold on to each other.

From late-night conversations to fights that nearly break them, from whispered confessions to accidental touches that linger too long-this is a story about finding someone who stays, even when you don't ask them to. Because Macklin needs someone to catch him when he falls. And Will? Will has never been good at letting go.
