The line between professional and personal has never been thinner...
Donovan Murray, the Icebreakers' star goaltender, has always believed hockey leaves no room for anything else in his life. After a heartbreaking Stanley Cup Finals loss, he's struggling with performance anxiety for the first time in his career-but the last thing he wants is to talk about it, especially with the team's new sports psychologist.
Dr. Marcus Wei is used to resistance from athletes. As the Icebreakers' first full-time mental performance specialist, he expects skepticism. What he doesn't expect is his immediate connection with the team's intensely private goaltender, or how quickly their professional relationship develops into something more complicated.
As Donovan's performance improves under Marcus's guidance, their sessions create an unexpected bond-one that professional ethics forbid them from exploring. When an injury sidelines Donovan mid-season, the forced proximity breaks down walls between them, making it increasingly difficult to maintain appropriate boundaries.
With playoffs approaching and their attraction impossible to ignore, they must navigate the complex ethical considerations keeping them apart. Can they find a way to honor both professional integrity and their growing feelings? Or will they be forced to choose between career obligations and a relationship neither of them saw coming?
Face-Off for Love is the fourth standalone novel in the beloved Icebreakers series, featuring a slow-burn romance, professional boundaries, hurt/comfort dynamics, and a guaranteed HEA. Return to the ice for another emotional journey where the most important saves happen off the rink.
