In the ruthless world of professional hockey, where vulnerability can end a career in a heartbeat, two men risk everything for a love that could either save them—or destroy them.
Morgan Oakson is the league’s quiet defenseman: talented, stoic, and hiding a dangerous secret. Trapped in an abusive relationship with his controlling boyfriend, he’s one brutal hit away from breaking. When a desperate 911 call brings his openly gay coach, Marshall Davies, into his life, Morgan is given one chance to escape the violence behind closed doors.
What begins as survival becomes something deeper. Through the adrenaline of chasing the Cup, the raw work of healing old wounds, and the courage to live openly, Morgan and Marshall build a love strong enough to face grief, public scrutiny, and new threats. Together they create change—mentoring the next generation, launching a #HockeyForAll movement, and proving that the hardest fights aren’t always on the ice.
Raw, emotional, and unapologetically queer, the Shatter the Ice trilogy is a sweeping hurt/comfort sports romance that follows one couple’s journey from darkness to triumph:
Playing for Keeps – The gripping escape
One More Faceoff – The hard work of healing
Beyond the Boards – The legacy they build together
Heart-pounding hockey action, deep emotional stakes, and a love that refuses to stay hidden. Perfect for fans of hurt/comfort, found family, and stories where love wins the ultimate victory.
