After a career-ending fight, ex-professional-hockey-player-turned-Zamboni-driver Chase Cassidy has never looked back at the sport. He's perfectly content cleaning the ice between periods and chatting with fellow staff members, and running a pub outside of the arena.
Spencer West, who's just come out of a toxic relationship, is looking forward to returning to her hometown. She has a job lined up, friends, family, and a passion for hockey.
When Spencer and Chase meet, there's an instant pull. Both are wary of jumping into a relationship--for different reasons. Spencer questions her judgement. Chase is worried about the skeletons in his closet. But they can't deny the attraction, especially when an outer force is pushing them together.
