Mia never planned on falling for a hockey player. She just happened to know his jersey number first. Loud, outgoing, and a little too observant for her own good, Mia has been watching Carter from the stands long before he notices her back. When they finally meet at the rink, the chemistry is instant: easy laughs, late-night hangouts, and a spark that turns into something real faster than either of them expected.
Carter is charming, funny, and skating toward a pro career sooner than anyone realizes, including Mia. He doesn't lie. He just doesn't say the one thing that matters. And Mia, knowing his reputation and afraid of asking for too much, lets herself fall anyway.
Somewhere between shared fires, stolen moments, and a drunken hayride, they cross the line from casual to complicated. When the truth finally comes out, Mia has to decide if loving him was worth being the last to know, and Carter has to learn that choosing someone means trusting them with the whole story.
Because falling is easy. Staying takes honesty.
