Chicago Ravens captain Ledger Cole believes in earning your stripes, not coasting on golden boy status. So when Austin Hart becomes the NHL’s youngest signee, Ledger is determined to give him a pretty steep learning curve.
Auburn Hart is barely clinging onto her son’s meteoric rise to stardom. Uprooted to a new city, a new job (working in a coffee shop in your thirties is fiiine, right?) and being forced to keep an eye on Austin’s troublemaking tendencies is...a lot.
When loneliness and chance create the perfect hookup, neither Auburn nor Ledger realizes their awkward real-life connection — until the truth spills out. But with more than one career at stake, and Auburn’s scars hovering at the door, they can’t just follow this irresistible pull. Can they?
