Ruben Lake is West Vancouver's notorious playboy and most eligible bachelor. Puck bunnies worship him and guys envy his lifestyle. 

His eight figure salary and pretty green eyes are enough to make any woman's panties melt. 

Any woman that isn't Monica Hill. 

Despite her rewarding job, Monica Hill's salary seems minimal to Ruben's yet she doesn't care. Money has never meant much to her other than for survival, luxuries don't excite her and that's something that Ruben can't understand. 

They're worlds apart and polar opposites. She's a driven neonatal surgeon whilst he's a world famous hockey player. But despite their differences, flames ignite when they touch and it doesn't take long for Ruben to become enthralled. 

But the hockey lifestyle isn't easy and Monica has her doubts. 

Ruben has a history..one Monica is afraid to figure out. 

Can love simply be enough when it seems like the world is against you?
