Home Ice, Open Hearts
A Novel
By Victoria Taylor
Clara Morgan has built her career on precision, discipline, and staying one step ahead of chaos. As the newly appointed operations director for a professional hockey team, she knows that success depends on organization—not emotions. The last thing she needs is a star player determined to test every ounce of her patience.
Elias Vane is the face of the franchise, a celebrated athlete carrying the weight of a legendary family name. Behind his confidence, however, lies a devastating secret that threatens not only his career but his future. Determined to keep anyone from discovering the truth, he pushes everyone away—especially the one woman who refuses to be intimidated by him.
As a grueling season unfolds, constant clashes turn into reluctant respect, and respect slowly blossoms into an undeniable connection. But when Elias's hidden condition spirals into a life-changing crisis, Clara is forced to choose between protecting the man she loves and exposing the truth that could destroy everything he has worked for.
Together they must confront powerful organizations, impossible expectations, and the painful realization that true courage isn't measured by championships or public applause—it's found in honesty, sacrifice, and the willingness to begin again.
