Since the moment they met, San Francisco Sea Lions defenseman Luca Mazetti has harbored a debilitating crush on his on-ice partner and roommate, Breezy. Loud and friendly, Breezy mistakenly believes he’s Italian even though he’s from Montreal. In short, he’s everything Luca never thought he’d want. When Breezy asks for help navigating love and sex, Luca is powerless to resist, despite knowing he’s only going to end up getting hurt.

Chris Calabrese, “Breezy” to his teammates, knows he’s not the sharpest blade on the skate. He can’t even figure out why none of his girlfriends stick around. And he’s definitely not a good fit for the newly vacant alternate captaincy everyone keeps trying to give him. All Breezy wants is for the team to get along, despite the changes and upheaval plaguing the roster. If he can keep Luca living in his apartment as well, even better. Breezy knows his best friend is way too good for him and will move on eventually, but for reasons Breezy doesn’t fully understand, he’s desperate to keep Luca’s attention.

With dissent brewing among the Sea Lions, can Luca and Chris hold the team together? Or will the Sea Lions disintegrate along with their friendship? And if it does, can they build something stronger from the rubble?
