She's the one woman I can't have.

And yet I can't let her go...

I've respected Joey—Josephine—Banks from the moment I first came to the Sierra Hockey organization.

Over the years, that respect grew into friendship...and eventually, it became something more. Something dangerous. Something that I could never allow myself to have.

So I stayed away.

But then I discover the truth about Joey's past with the team's former head coach and everything changes.

I can't stay away.

I don't care about bad press or dumb decisions or all the ways a relationship between us can implode.

I just know I'll do everything to make her mine.
