When Natalie Mitchell’s 18-year-old brother Jesse is drafted to play professional hockey, she packs up her life, her patience, and her ibuprofen to help him chase his dream.
Falling for one of his teammates? Not part of the plan.
But Jake MacDonald isn’t just any teammate. He’s a seasoned enforcer with a bruised past and a quiet intensity that draws Natalie in from the moment they meet. He’s supposed to be Jesse’s mentor, not the man who makes her heart race and her resolve crumble.
From the second Jake lays eyes on Natalie, he knows he’s in trouble. She’s smart, loyal, and completely off-limits. But when sparks ignite and lines blur, keeping his distance becomes impossible.
As secrets unravel and Jesse spirals, Jake is left fighting for more than just his place on the team—he’s fighting for the only woman who’s ever made him want something beyond the game.
A forbidden romance full of tension, heart, and undeniable heat—this is what happens when loyalty collides with love.
