Kieran Miller’s NHL career is on thin ice. Demoted to the Watertown Wolves in the snowiest city in New York, the twenty-two-year-old former first-round pick is drowning in grief and throwing punches to avoid his feelings. His only plan? Keep his head down, get his numbers up, and get called back to Philly.

Wyatt Hayes is a thirty-five-year-old team captain with a deteriorating knee, a dog named Moose, and a carefully constructed, solitary life in the woods. He doesn't have time for a loud, chaotic hothead crashing his drills. But when a brutal ice storm forces them to share Wyatt's remote cabin, the strict professional distance Wyatt enforces shatters completely.

As their undeniable on-ice chemistry ignites the team into an unstoppable winning streak, their off-ice connection becomes a consuming secret. With a championship on the line and the NHL calling Kieran back, Wyatt has to decide if he's finally brave enough to let someone in, or if he'll stay out in the cold for good.
