~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The only time Analise Carter feels like herself is when she is on the ice. When she moved to the small town of Balmore the summer before her Freshman year, to her dismay, Analise discovered that Balmore High School didn't have a Girl's ice hockey team. However, Analise was determined to play for the school. She turned up to team try-outs, she was shocked to be appointed Co-captain. This gained the boys respect and she soon had a group of boys that seemed like they would protect her with their lives. Analise's ideal life is suddenly uprooted at the end of Junior year, when her parents drop a bomb shell on her. Analise Carter is adopted. Her family suddenly feel like strangers. She doesn't know who she can trust, and in turn, Analise falls off the deep end. The only constants in her life is hockey, and her friends... or so she thought. Analise does her best to continue through her life with good grades to pass her Senior year, keeping her fitness up to play the sport she loves and navigating her relationship with her 'family' and friends. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
