Love doesn’t always have a happy ending. I should know…
On the ice, Austin Hart is a star—but off it he’s drinking and snorting his way to oblivion. The only bright spot is his friendship
with the Chicago Ravens social media intern…she sees past the jersey to the lonely man underneath.
Nova Thatcher thought things were looking up. But her mom’s cancer diagnosis has thrown her for a loop, and the internship she hoped would become a full-time job is going nowhere. Her friendship with Austin is about the only thing making her smile.
Austin would do anything for Nova, whether it’s get clean or say yes to a spontaneous wedding so her mom can be by her side. But even the best intentions can’t save something that was never meant to be.
This is a story about being brave enough to face yourself—even if that means giving up an HEA.
