At twenty-five, NHL captain Y/N is a stone-cold leader who lives entirely for the game, completely immune to the distractions of fame. But his highly disciplined world collides with the glamorous, chaotic world of fashion when a major brand partners him with Stella "Ella" Thorne—a twenty-four-year-old international supermodel.Ella possesses an otherworldly beauty that dominates global runways, yet behind the cameras, she is entirely down-to-earth, fiercely independent, and notoriously hard to get. While the media immediately tries to manufacture a high-profile romance, Ella constructs an emotional wall between them. She is intensely attracted to Y/N's quiet authority, but she is terrified of the brutal, high-impact violence of his sport, refusing to lose her heart to a man who risks his safety on the ice every single night. To break through her defenses, the unstoppable captain will have to play the hardest game of his life, proving to Ella that his strength on the ice is matched only by his fierce devotion to protecting her off it.
