After a career-threatening injury, 17-year-old hockey prodigy Liam Mercer went from the soft-hearted golden boy of Westfield Academy to its coldest recluse. Once destined for the pros, now he barely speaks, skips practice, and pushes away everyone who cares about him.
Enter Harper Lane, a classmate who never expected to step into his world. When her mother, a renowned sports therapist, is called away on an emergency job, Harper is sent in her place to help Liam with his rehabilitation. She’s not a professional, but she knows enough to do the job, and she needs the money.
Liam wants nothing to do with her. Harper doesn’t want to be there either. But as days turn into weeks, their constant clashing turns into reluctant conversations, and reluctant conversations turn into something neither of them expected.
He’s terrified his future is gone. She’s struggling to hold her own family together. Together, they might just find the courage to heal—on and off the ice.
