In the northern town of Riverton, hockey is not just a sport—it’s a culture. The Raptors, the hometown team, are local legends and a source of pride.

Mackenzie Avery, a talent scout, takes pride in the small town of Riverton and its local hockey team.

Forced to choose between humble and respectful Ethan, and unapologetic enforcer Damon, Mackenzie faces a tough choice….

In this small town romance, action on the ice intertwines with fiery romance, transporting you to a delightful setting imbued with witty repartee, heartfelt moments, and unexpected twists.
