She’s looking for a scandal. He’s the one man standing in her way. Investigative journalist Sloane Sterling has spent her life hating hockey. It destroyed her father’s career, and she’s determined to expose the corruption rotting the Chicago Sentinels from the inside out. She just needs one smoking gun to bring the whole organization down. Instead, she gets stuck with a babysitting assignment: shadowing the team’s captain for two weeks. Declan O’Rourke is known as "The Wall." The best goalie in the league, he is stoic, obsessive, and fiercely protective of his team. He has no patience for a reporter digging into secrets that could ruin the franchise—especially not one with sharp green eyes and a mouth that challenges him at every turn. His plan is to bore her into quitting. Her plan is to crack his perfect defense. But as late-night road trips and adrenaline-fueled games force them closer, the ice between them begins to melt. Sloane discovers the quiet, protective man beneath the armor, and Declan finds the one person who sees past his legendary control. When Sloane uncovers the undeniable proof she’s been hunting, she faces an impossible choice: publish the story that will define her career and destroy the man she’s falling for, or bury the truth to save him. Every goalie has a weakness. For Declan, it’s her.
