Charlotte Winters is the epitome of an optimist and has never struggled to find the light in any dark situation.
She is a hopeless romantic to the core, selfless to an occasional fault, and passionate about everything she does.
Reed Larinski is one of the leading defensemen in the NHL. He is the guy you want as an ally and the last guy you want as an enemy. Although he's a menace on the ice with a tough exterior, he's a softie off of it when it comes to the people he loves, and he will do anything to make them smile.
When Charlotte receives the worst news imaginable, she refuses to make Reed go through the same pain her dad did years ago when they lost her mom. In a desperate and emotional attempt to save Reed's heart, she ends their relationship, leaving him devastated and confused about what went wrong between them. Reed throws himself into his craft in an attempt to move forward, but it's not easy to do when he is forced to see Charlotte constantly at the rink, as she works for his team as a social media assistant. Reed continues to struggle to let go of the anger he feels at Charlotte for tossing their relationship aside like it was nothing.
Little does Reed know, their love isn't the only thing fighting for survival.
