Rowan Faulkner has loved hockey her whole life. Growing up in northern BC, Canada, she was raised in a fully hockey household. Her father and older brother played, and so did she - until she left for Vancouver to pursue her communications degree. Playing hockey was a fun pastime, but cheering for her favourite NHL team is all she has time for now. It's her dream to work for the Vancouver Canucks social media team, but she can't help but feel like her dream is impossible. At 25, she feels like all her friends are ahead of her, and her lack of confidence (and degree) is starting to get to her.

Finley Hayes is the captain of the Vancouver Canucks in the NHL. The team hasn't made the playoffs in four years, since he was a rookie, and now they have finally made it again this year. He wants to be the best captain he can be, but is scared his quieter demeanour makes him a less worthy captain. His teammate and friend, Brett, tries to help him gain back his confidence by taking him out clubbing. It may also be Brett's way of trying to get them both laid, which Finley also wouldn't mind, because that could also help his confidence... right?

When Finley and Rowan meet, it's electric. They have a lot in common, make each other laugh, and both love hockey. That chemistry leads to a steamy moment on a balcony... until Rowan is whisked away by her friends, leaving Finley in the dust.

One kiss is all it took, and Finley can't get it out of his head. He didn't get her number, and it may be for the best since she was a fan of the team. It seems like she's gone forever... until he runs into her working at the arena for the Canucks media internship program. 

Rowan cannot believe she got the internship, and she will NOT let a one time make-out ruin her chances of working for the team (no matter how incredible it was). Except as they talk more, it's starting to seem like maybe Finley is actually interested in her...

Will they be able to stick around for each other?

[actively editing] With her nose in books and his brawn getting him nowhere on or off the ice, they find themselves drawn together, sharing their baggage and learning what it might mean for each of them to love again. Jake Bryers is no stranger to the pressures of being a professional hockey player. It's something that he's dealt with consistently for the past fifteen years. Throughout his career, he's experienced it all-the 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 better life outside of the dangerous one she found herself leading in the Midwest, she finds herself stagnating after getting her degree from Columbia. She quietly enjoys 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 as they try to navigate mending each other's wounded hearts.
