Liza: How would I describe Jace Jackson? That’s the real question isn’t it! He is the star athlete at our university and his prowess on the ice is unmatched. Off the ice.. he is enigmatic! He is also arrogant, flirty, a playboy, and oh so frustrating! My assignment is to interview and get to know him, but he says “trust is a two-way street”. Have I been wrong about him all this time? Will getting to know him leave me vulnerable? How do I stop him from breaking my heart? Jace: Liza Thorn.. Just thinking her name has me burning! She is unlike anyone I’ve ever met. Women usually fall all over themselves to land at my feet, not her! Instead she has me weak in the knees. I’m falling and I’m not sure that I care to stop. She is tenacious and resilient. Her inner strength only adds to her power over me, but how do I truly let her in? How do I show her the real me.. the one I hide away? She is easily the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. I want her more then I’ve ever wanted anything, even hockey!

Jayme: Everyone thinks I’m so sweet and innocent. Or worse, they just think of me as Jace’s little sister! From the first moment I saw him I knew Conner, or Conny to his friends, was meant to be mine. There was an immediate connection between us. The desire in his eyes made me feel wanted and seen. Then my damn brother had to step in and ruin it all. Now Conny has me pushed permanently into the friend-zone, despite me being old enough, attending the same school, and I suspect his own feelings too. It’s a good thing I am determined and flat out refuse to give up on us being more without ever having tried. Conny: My best friend’s little sister.. why did she have to be his little sister?!? She is the ultimate forbidden fruit. A fruit so juicy I want to devour her. I can’t get her out of my mind. She has invaded every dream and almost all my waking thoughts too. The only reprieve I get is when I’m on the ice. My mind is focused there. I have to be because It’s just Me versus a flying piece of hardened rubber. No matter how good my teammates are, if I’m off my game we lose, and I’m no loser. Once I’m off the ice again though, SHE floods my thoughts once more. You’d think with pucks being shot at me all the time, that I wouldn’t be afraid of anything. So.. than why does my feelings for Jayme scare me so much?
