Eden Christiansen by no means imagined her role as her youthful sibling Owen’s cheerleader would keep her within the sidelines of her very own existence. Sure, it feels great to be required, but looking after the reckless NHL first year leaves little time for Eden to spotlight her own career. She dreamed of making a name for herself as a reporter, but can be stuck writing obits-and needs to dread that she does not have the chops to property a major tale. If only someone would intensify to mentor Owen . but she knows better than to expect help from group veteran and bad-boy enforcer Jace Jacobsen.

Jace has built his career within the infamous trustworthiness of his aggressive behavior-on and off the glaciers. Now at a crossroads about his potential in hockey, that reputation has him caught. As well as the guilt-trip he’s getting from Eden Christiansen isn’t producing things any much easier. But when Owen’s carelessness prospects to a career-threatening damage and Eden stumbles upon a tale that could be her big break, she and Jace are thrown together . . . and begin to wonder if indeed they belong on a single team in the end.
