Idris Kane has one rule: never let anyone see the mark on his ribs. It's the reason his brother's career ended before it started. It's the reason Idris plays clean, keeps quiet, and never lets a hookup stay till morning.
Wren Callahan doesn't know the rules. He gets traded to Idris's team, gets shoved onto his line, and then gets shoved into his apartment when his own housing falls through. Wren is loud where Idris is silent, reckless where Idris is careful, and the two of them have hated each other since a hit in juniors that never healed right.
Chemistry on the ice becomes something else off it. One night neither of them plans for changes everything, because Idris isn't like other men, and a bond sealed all the way through doesn't stay a secret in his blood. By the time he understands what's happening to his body, the playoffs are two months out, his family's history is catching up to Wren's, and the thing he's spent his whole life hiding is no longer his to hide alone.
