Nicolas 'Nico' Cruz- Life is all about sacrifice. Your physical health for you mental. Your sanity for bliss. Yourself for them. But when you find something you truly love, and it gets taken away from you, then thats when people need to watch out. Ice-hockey was what kept me sane. It was the only peice of my father that I loved. Now I'm not sure whether thats enough to pull me out of my downward spiral. As my life goes to complete and utter sh** that's when the universe gives me the one thing I thought that I could live without. Love. I never knew that love would come in the form of a beautiful, firey girl. Aleyna, as much as I hate it, I can't deny that she's got me drawn. Like a moth to a flame. But as our lives fall apart, is she willing to be the other half to my broken self ? Because this time, I'm not letting the world take the last person I could ever love... Aleyna Gonzalo- Never would I have thought that this is where I would end up. The world has taken alot from me, but I'm not going to let it take this. Moving to Ontario was supposed to give me a new chance at life. Court Dame University was going to get me out of this mess of a life. But when old problems resurface I realise how broken I am. How much I need someone. I thought that Nico, the University's big time hockey king was just another shallow athlete. You know, the typical, rich, sleeps around, just cruises through life dude. Turns out that while he seemed to fit that stereotype, he is so much more. He see's me. He feels me. Its like our souls have met before. As I continue to fall apart, I realise that i'm not the one to pick up the peices this time. Its him. The only question is, am I willing to be vulnerable with the one guy I should stay away from ? The one guy whose very presence threatens to shatter the last of my broken heart...

I had been second best all my life. But this time, when it comes to her, I'm not willing to accept defeat. I'll do whatever it takes to get her to choose me. *** Having a best friend that was wildly popular, and one of the best hockey players in the United American Hockey League, was both a curse and a blessing. On the plus side, I got to play hockey with my best friend, and there was never a shortage of beautiful girls. At least there wasn't until Nash decided to man up and tell his childhood friend that he'd always loved her. The bad part was that I usually ended up being second best. In my late teens and early twenties I hadn't cared that I wasn't picked in the first round of the draft, or that sponsors chose Nash ahead of me, or even if I ended up with a girl who didn't really want me for me. I made a nice living playing hockey. I had a few good friends and a nice place to live in the middle of Manhattan. Despite not being the best, I'd made most of my dreams come true and it was a far stretch from the lonely kid I'd been growing up in the rural Midwest. I was happy. I was content. Until her.... It's not like I didn't want what Nash had. I did. I do. Who doesn't want a happily ever after? It's just that I've never taken the risk and allowed a woman to see past my defenses before, to see the real me, with my baggage and all my insecurities... until now. As scary as that is in itself, what makes it complicated is that my new roommate, Jackson - who I offered my spare bedroom to a while back when he needed a place to stay - and Bryce - one of my friends and teammates- also seem to have an interest in her... the woman who has me questioning all my decisions. The thing is... I'm pretty sure I'm not willing to be a second choice this time around...
