**Premise:**
When a career-threatening injury sidelines grumpy hockey captain Griffin Hayes, the only thing he hates more than physical therapy is the endlessly cheerful PT assigned to his case, Willa Santoro. Their sessions are a clashing of wills, fueled by sharp banter and simmering tension. But beneath the animosity, an undeniable attraction is heating up, ready to melt the ice.

A forced work trip and a single-bed “mix-up” finally erase the line between professional and personal, igniting a secret, forbidden affair. But the pressure of Griffin’s comeback, coupled with sabotage from a jealous rival, leads him to make an unforgivable mistake: he publicly humiliates Willa to save his own skin. Now, having shattered their relationship and her trust, Griffin must face his own demons and orchestrate the ultimate grand gesture to win back the woman who saw the man behind the player.
