Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Carter Brooks has spent years proving that he can survive pressure.Championship games. Trade rumours. Public scrutiny. A career lived at the highest level of professional hockey.Then his shoulder finally gives him a problem he cannot play through.A partial rotator cuff tear leaves Carter facing surgery, months away from the ice, and the possibility that the career he thought he controlled may be approaching an ending he never planned.For Riley, fixing the problem is impossible.She can manage headlines, build media strategies, and prepare for every professional contingency. She cannot guarantee that surgery will give her husband back the game he loves.While Carter fights through rehabilitation and learns what life looks like when hockey is no longer the centre of every day, their marriage enters unfamiliar territory. More time with their daughter reveals everything his career has given them, and everything it has quietly asked them to sacrifice.Then Carter gets another chance.One more return. One more season. One opportunity to decide for himself when the final period ends.But coming back means more than proving his body can survive. Carter must rediscover the instincts that made him exceptional, face the limits of his future, and decide whether leaving the game on his own terms can feel like victory instead of loss.And Riley must learn that loving him does not mean controlling the ending.Sometimes it means standing beside him while he chooses it.An emotional, high-heat hockey romance series finale about marriage, family, injury recovery, professional ambition, comeback, retirement, championship pressure, and a couple discovering that the strongest future may begin after the final buzzer.
