To the world, Garrett is the untouchable hockey star but behind closed doors, Garrett is fighting a silent, suffocating battle to keep Brenna safe from a trauma they both still carry. All while his best friend, Dean Di Laurentis is occupying his guest room. With Dean adding a layer of chaotic normalcy to their lives and the media turning its predatory gaze on their relationship, Garrett's armour is finally cracking. He promised to be her protector, but he's realizing that the hardest battle isn't on the ice. It's the one he's fighting within himself.
