Elise Moreno has defined her entire existence by the relentless pace of professional hockey. But when a devastating shoulder injury forces her to the sidelines, her identity crumbles alongside her career. Stripped of the sport that grounded her and forced to watch her teammates from the bench, Elise is spiraling—until she encounters Dr. Sienna Park.
Sienna has built a reputation on unshakable professional boundaries. As the team’s surgeon, she has a strict policy regarding player relationships, and the intense, wounded, and deeply alluring Elise is exactly the kind of complication she has spent her career avoiding. Yet, as their clinical sessions transition into late-night vulnerability, the walls surrounding Sienna’s resolve begin to splinter.
What starts as a patient-physician necessity quickly ignites into a forbidden connection that challenges every rule they’ve both lived by. As the physical and emotional stakes rise, the two women must navigate a treacherous path between their professional reputations and the consuming gravity of their attraction. In the high-pressure world of Phoenix Ridge, Elise and Sienna are about to discover that when the ice melts, the most dangerous risk isn’t getting back in the game—it’s falling for the one person who could change everything.
