Eliza De Leon and Cole Sterling have two things in common: their love for being on the ice and Asher De Leon- her older brother and his best friend. For years they remained just outside of each other's orbit. Cole's reputation on and off the ice has him surrounded by the top two things on his priority list for his college career- girls and winning. Eliza, on the other hand, is perfectly content with cheering her brother on from the sidelines and spending her time with her small circle of friends. The sporadic encounters that they have were just enough so that they build a tenuous acquaintanceship, and for a while it seemed like acquaintances were all they'd ever be. However, a series of coffees, conversations, and coincidences changes their dynamic to something they never would've expected. As Cole navigates through the emotions that he's kept locked away when he starts to see his best friend's little sister in a new light, he must find a way to come to terms with the fact that these feelings aren't something that he can block, no matter how good of a goalie he is. The attention she receives from Cole forces Eliza to push past her comfort zones. Her journey of self-discovery and realization is thrust forward into an unfamiliar world of lust, desire, secrets, and maybe even love. Along the way she reclaims the love for the sport she gave up and the confidence she had lost. Will Eliza and Cole be able to skate through this whirlwind of emotions or will they both be swept away and thrown out of bounds?

The world has chewed up and spit out Eleanor Robinson again and again. It began with her parents, one taken by a tragedy, one addicted to horrific drugs, and a brother who's too boozed out to know if she's alive or dead. Alone in the world, Ellie isn't exactly sure of how life works, of how anything works, really. The only two people she has that even remotely understand are Sebastian and Scarlett, a pair of siblings that remind her so much of her own family, it's hard to be around them sometimes. When the trio finally move in together after being friends for almost three years, they end up closer than ever. But the move brings along another problem into Ellie's life. Cole Everett is a fighter. From the moment he was cast aside by his family, he's had to fight for scraps at the orphanage dinner table, fight for a spot in the light of his foster family's eyes, and fight for the love of his adoptive parents. It seemed like he never won when it came to personal battles, but in the ring... In the ring, he owned the world. Years and years of the world kicking Cole's ass has shaped him into the fighter Ellie and everyone else sees him as. But the world has also shaped Ellie, and the sweet, heavy-hearted girl paints on a façade that seems only Cole can break through. As the pair attempt to navigate a decent enough relationship to be in the same room as one another without going for the throat, the people around them float between blurred lines of friend or foe. Hearts clash, past enemies arise, and the pair's hearts hang in the balance of it all.
