In a world where desire dances dangerously close to detachment, Carter Beckett, a charming and reckless hockey player, finds himself perpetually entangled in one-night stands and fleeting connections. But when he crosses paths with Mason, an intriguing woman with a sharp tongue and a past in the game he loves, everything he thought he knew about relationships is put to the test. Just as Carter thinks he can keep things casual, Mason flips the script, refusing to be just another notch on his proverbial bedpost. Her fierce independence and refusal to settle for typical flings challenge Carter in ways he never anticipated. The stakes rise as he grapples with the undeniable chemistry pulling them together, yet struggles against his own ingrained fears of commitment.
