Synopsis
Junior Tate Tanley hasn’t made
it off the bench since joining the hockey team as a freshman. But after
the Otters’ star goalie leaves during a huge game, Tate’s got the
attention of the entire town. Including Claire O’Connor, who’s
mysteriously back in Juniper Falls and who he hasn’t seen in a year. But
Tate hasn’t stopped thinking about Claire or what happened the night
before she left.
Claire O’Connor should be enjoying college life in the big city. Instead, she’s serving drinks to handsy fishermen and taking care of her sick father back in Juniper Falls. And when she spots her best friend’s little brother, Tate, playing in a big varsity game, she’s thrown for a loop. Tate has grown up a lot: more muscles, more hotness, more…everything. But Claire’s responsibility is to her family, and she doesn’t have time for boys—especially not hockey players.
