Against the Boards

As the sister of NHL stars Quinn, Jack, and Luke Hughes, Elise Hughes has spent her entire life surrounded by hockey. Known as the league's most beloved "Hockey Sister," she's always been in the stands, cheering on her brothers, never stepping into the spotlight herself. But when she meets Toronto Maple Leafs winger Mitch Marner at a team party, everything changes.

Mitch is charming, confident, and one of the NHL's biggest stars, but dating Elise comes with its own challenges-namely, her three overprotective brothers and the constant pressure of the hockey world. As their relationship heats up, Elise struggles to break free from the shadow of her famous last name, while Mitch navigates the scrutiny of dating someone already tied to the sport.

Between intense games, playful rivalries, and stolen moments on and off the ice, Elise and Mitch find themselves caught between love and the world of hockey. But can their relationship survive the pressures of fame, family, and fierce competition? Or will they realize that love-like hockey-is all about taking risks and playing for keeps?
