Ryker is a professional hockey player who is happy to become the captain of the Shockwaves as it allows him to be close to his teenaged daughter Ellie. The responsibilities and time commitment that his career demands is difficult enough but not living near his daughter only made it that much more difficult. When he meets his new neighbor, it seems like fate as not only he is immediately drawn to her, but his daughter is as well.
Avery works from home so after meeting Ryker and Ellie she agrees to look after her when Ryker has games out of town. As they spend time together, she becomes close to father and daughter, but will their friendship turn into love?
This is a heartwarming and conflict free story about love and family. Neither Ryker nor Avery were looking for a relationship but with the help of Ellie they realize that some things are meant to be.
