The puck bunnies might all be swooning over the new tatted-up player sitting on the home bench, but she won't be fooled.
He's a wolf, disguised in a Hawkeyes jersey.
Penelope has never shared the heart-wrenching details of her and Slade's past with anyone, let alone her dad, but Slade's sudden appearance threatens to unravel her carefully guarded disdain.
Slade Matthews, her father's protégé and her college bully are one and the same. She thought she'd never have to see him again, but with a new opening on the team and time of the essence to fill it, Slade gets his chance to move up.
Now she has to hide her six-year-long grudge against the charismatic player who won't stop trying to win her over as if he forgot what he did to her all those years ago.
As Slade makes a play to win Penelope, she's torn between the past and the future.
Just when things couldn't get more complicated – an old love interest comes back into the fold, a person she met in one of the college's tutoring chat rooms that up and disappeared on her years ago has returned.
Now, with her emotions skating on thin ice, Penelope finds herself in a tangled web of attraction, heartbreak, and rediscovered connections.
Will she decide to let go of her grudge and finally let Slade in? Or is this an opportunity at a second chance with the pen pal who got away?
