Its been decades since blackmail forced Troy Callahan to retire from playing professional hockey, and hes built a successful career behind the bench. When hes offered the opportunity to coach the Asheville Ravensthe most hated team in the ECHLhes convinced that his no-nonsense attitude is just what the team needs to put their focus back on hockey. But Troy is disheartened when he finds out the Ravens have signed Shane North, a player known for his aggressionespecially when Shanes rough good looks have Troy thinking inappropriate thoughts about a player, even if hes set to retire at the end of the season.
Shanes career in the majors never quite took off. Wanting to quit on his own terms, Shane agrees to a one-year contract with the Ravens and finds himself playing for a coach who thinks hes an aging goon, and with a team that doesnt trust him, Troy, or each other. Despite his determination not to get involved, Shane unwillingly becomes part of the team and is just as unwillingly drawn to the gruff, out-and-proud coach. As the Ravens struggle to build a new identity, Shane and Troy succumb to the passion that might cost them everything.
