"Stripped of her beat and exiled to the sports desk, principled journalist Violet Hayes is ready to hate her new assignment. That is, until she collides head-on with the hockey league's most elusive star—the very same man who walked out of her life years ago without a word. He's back for the championship, and even though he left her behind back then, he's not letting her walk away this time."

​"We aren't dating, Olivia. I am the one who needs clarity at this point." ​Those were the words that broke the spell. For three years, Olivia gave Micheal everything—her time, her talent, and her loyalty—only to be treated like she meant nothing to him. When she finally realizes she is deserving of the love she has been giving away for free, she walks away. ​Micheal assumes she’ll be back. After all, what is she without him? He is about to find out that while he provided the house, Olivia was the one who built the empire.
