'Unputdownable and unforgettable' BAL KHABRA
Rhys is desperate to feel anything. Sadie wants to stop feeling so much.
Rhys Koteskiy is back - at least, he's supposed to be. During last year's Frozen Four, the Waterfell University hockey captain and NHL legacy took a brutal hit that left him with a concussion and a new discomfort on the ice. Plagued by nightmares and panic attacks every time he attempts to skate, Rhys wonders if he'll ever play again - or if he'll ever want to.
Sadie Brown is staying focused this semester - no matter what. Currently drowning in debt, custody hearings for her younger brothers, and skating practices, she's just trying to make it to the next day. A spitfire figure skater known for her bad attitude and frequent disappearing acts, Sadie has a reputation on campus. And it's not a pretty one.
When she accidentally witnesses one of the golden boy hockey captain's panic attacks and attempts to help him, a strange sort of understanding strikes up between them. No questions asked. Just comfort. But Rhys finds himself drawn to Sadie. Where he feels empty, a shell of the man and player he was before, Sadie is so full of everything, it bursts from her; every emotion she feels seems like it's blasted at max volume. But healing doesn't mix with secrets, and they're both skating on thin ice.
