The Overtime Play

He's been playing overtime for sixteen years. Will he finally win the game?

Eleanor Burkeley has strived her entire life to be as successful as her father. After earning her bachelor's degree in just three years, she's heading to law school at Cedar University, the same school that her lifelong best friend, Matt Gallagher, attends. As El becomes submersed in Matt's world, the harder it is for her to deny the feelings she's had since she was young. Yet, for reasons she won't admit, she's determined not to cross the line into something deeper with Matt. But as the battle rages inside her, El might soon find herself on the verge of breaking.

As the six-five hockey hotshot of Cedar University and one of the best defensemen in college hockey, Matt Gallagher has never had an issue getting girls to fall for him- except Eleanor Burkeley, who he's been pining for ever since they were five years old. Deemed the "Team Hothead", Matt is known for his violent temper, and with El closer than ever, he's prepared to burn the world down to protect her. But he would also do anything to have her, and when his chances get jeopardized, along with his spot on the starting line, Matt is faced with two options: get his temper under control or lose everything he's worked for.

Eleanor and Matt both do their best to navigate the challenges in front of them, but will their friendship be at stake in the process?
