"You're on my schedule," he stated, his tone laced with an unusual intensity. 

"On your schedule?" I questioned, curiously. 

"We need to have sex."

.  .  .

Haunted by a tragic mistake during her residency, Dr. Angel Novak has reshaped her career, trading the hospital for sports medicine. When offered a prestigious fellowship with the world's most renowned hockey team in New York, she sees it as a fresh start, a chance to leave her past behind.

Amid the fast-paced world of professional athletes, Angel's focus shifts to rehabilitating players and helping them reclaim their glory on the ice. But one player stands out, rude and distant - Eros Candreva, the team's goaltender. Despite Angel's diligent efforts, he avoids every appointment she schedules for him.

As Angel delves deeper into Eros's mystery, she discovers he holds the answers to questions she never knew she had. Drawn together by an irresistible pull, they're entangled in a dance of secrets and unspoken desires. But with her professional ethics at stake, she's forbidden to cross the line between doctor and patient.

Yet, as the intensity between them grows, Angel finds it harder to deny her feelings. Beneath Eros's icy facade lies a past as tumultuous as her own, and together, they might find healing. But when the truth finally surfaces, it threatens to shatter their fragile bond.

Throughout his career, he's experienced it all-the unbelievably electric thrill of winning divisions and conference titles, and even making it to the Stanley cup Finals on more than one occasion. His dream was always to skate the cup at least once, but as he enters the late stage of his long, tumultuous career, he finds himself struggling to perform like he once had as a younger, inspired player. Harper Clark has been proficient at one thing throughout her life-constantly moving forward without really going anywhere. After having moved to the Big Apple to pursue a more exciting life outside of the lonely one she found herself leading in the Midwest, she herself stagnating after getting her degree from Columbia, she finds herself continuing to quietly enjoy her job at the public library, treading water while the undeniable feeling of discontent grows stronger within her. It's nothing short of fate when Jake and Harper happen to cross paths at the library, and though their lives couldn't be any more different, they find themselves inexplicably drawn to one another in a magnetic pull that neither of them can understand. As much as they try to fight what seems to be the universe bringing them together, what one lacks the other has in abundance, and no amount of avoidance keeps them apart.
