Will two struggling hockey players grab their second chance at love, or will it slide right through their grasp? Newly retired hockey star Aiden Campbell should be a man with no regrets. Instead he is consumed by them. When he runs into his ex in New York City ten years after they broke up, he’ll have to confront his biggest regret of them all. Montreal hockey captain Matt Safaryan never expected to see his old flame again. Now that he has, he can’t forget what they had, no matter how badly Aiden hurt him. Which is why Matt finds himself on Aiden’s doorstep late at night with only a deep want driving him. One passionate night has them hooked all over again, but great sex was never the problem. Life after hockey has left Aiden adrift. Watching Matt push himself through chronic injuries isn’t helping, but this time around they’re determined to make this thing between them last. If only they can rebuild the trust they destroyed a decade ago. Giving their relationship a second chance might cut sharper than a blade, but it may also end up being their best play ever.

A second chance hockey romance. Aiden has just retired and is at loose ends when he runs into his ex, Matt, and they still have an undeniable connection (also they're still in love with each other). But Aiden is at more than loose ends, he's suffering from depression.
This story is between Matt, Aiden, and Aiden's depression. It's about how you can't fix others - they need to want to fix themselves. It's very emotional, and there's quite a lot of heat. And really tender. They're both trying so hard and hurting so much.
A really lovely work.
