Eager to make a name for herself, Vera Novak left home and her broken heart behind after high school. Sixteen years of strutting the runways and gracing magazine covers later, her job as a globe-trotting supermodel isn’t all she thought it would be and the luster of fame is wearing off. Her parents aren’t getting any younger either, and it might be time to revisit her small-town roots and make some changes.
At seventeen Robbie Oakes broke his best friend’s heart for a chance to play professional hockey. Now a superstar forward for the Quarry Creek Arctic, he spends his off-seasons coaching youth camps in the tiny central NY town where he was raised while still dreaming of the one he sent away.
When a bystander photograph of their surprise reunion goes viral, both of their families are convinced they’re rekindling their old romance. Pretending it’s true seems the simplest way to avoid the well-meaning meddling. The clock is already counting down to the final buzzer, but as they spend more time together, revisiting old haunts and shared memories, they find their connection is still as strong as ever. This is their last shot to take home the win, but with Vera’s career calling her back to the fast-paced world of fashion and Robbie’s commitment to his team, can they overcome the hurdles of their past—and the demands of their present—to get their second chance?
