Audrey Hawkins lives and breathes hockey, but only from the stands. As the head coach's daughter, her world revolves around the ice, late-night practices, and the relentless pursuit of a championship. The one rule she's never broken? Don't fall for a player. It's a line drawn in the ice, a boundary meant to protect her heart and her father's career.
Then there's Liam Carter , the team's Captain. He's exactly the kind of distraction Audrey doesn't need-all raw power on the ice and quiet intensity off it. After an unexpected, stolen moment shatters their carefully constructed boundaries, their connection becomes undeniable.
But as the season heats up and the pressure mounts, keeping their secret means navigating a minefield of suspicion, jealousy, and the iron will of the man who rules the team: Audrey's father. Because what happens beyond the rink, stays beyond the rink... unless it risks tearing everything apart.

The tension between us is undeniable, and yet she's still denying the obvious. She's worth the risk. The problem? I can't let her know just how much it hurts when she shuts me down. I'm ready to give her everything - if only she'd let me. Because when it comes to Arden, I can't stay away and I'll take anything she's willing to give me, even if it's not forever.
