With no cups or trophies to show for his time in the NHL, Tom retreated into himself a long time ago, and that's exactly where he intends to stay until he retires. But when he catches the new team superstar, Jaxon Grant, in a compromising position, Tom finds it impossible to continue hiding his deepest secret behind a bland, pleasant mask.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJax is everything Tom isn't: loud, flashy, the winner of multiple NHL Awards, and-oh, yeah-gay enough to get traded to San Francisco because of a potential PR scandal with his old team. At first, he thinks Tom catching him means the next trade, the next rejection for being just a little too much for other people to take. When it turns out the two of them have more in common than talent on the ice, though, Jax finds himself drawn in by pulling Tom out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs animosity gives way to a partnership neither of them saw coming, Tom and Jax are left facing new challenges. Will Jax's impulsive nature put Tom's deeply valued privacy at risk? Or will Tom's reticence force Jax into pretending to be someone he isn't? And if they can't even figure each other out, how can they save a struggling NHL team from bad coaching and internal division?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e S.
