Dancer and self-proclaimed perfectionist, Merit Lawson, has spent her whole life appeasing others, including walking away from a promising dance career.

After she collapses following a heart-related incident at her old college, her helicopter parents relocate her back home to snowy Minnesota—where hockey is a religion, and the players are gods. Merit wants one last night of freedom before she's thrown into a maelstrom of inflated egos and bad decisions, even if that means becoming a hookup culture statistic.

NHL-bound hockey player, Crew Calloway, yearns to be seen for who he is, rather than his flashy accomplishments or Playboy reputation. With a deadbeat dad and a roster of manipulative exes, it's going to take a lot to crumble his defenses. However, unexpected sparks fly when he meets one fiery, pint-sized brunette at the bar who seems to be the only girl who doesn't know his name. Before long, they're back at his place executing the perfect hat trick—sans clothes. But just as Crew thinks he's found his match, she disappears the next morning.

When Crew gets a dinner invite from his coach, he doesn't expect his blast from a not-so-distant past to answer the door. Merit has a personal vendetta against the hockey player species, and Crew knows that dating the coach's daughter would end his career, but neither of them can deny the unbidden hunger they share. Now, growing closer than ever after being assigned to the same fundraiser committee, their hormones will be the least of their worries if Merit's father finds out about their not-so-platonic relationship.

Will Crew and Merit fold under the pressures of the outside world, or will love finally be in the cards for two romantically challenged souls?
