I've got one job: protect the younger sister of my best friend and team captain. Then our private plane crashes in southern Alaska, and we're the lone survivors.

The two of us are the unlikeliest of partners when we find ourselves stranded in the unforgiving Alaskan wilderness. My hockey playing skills are of no use here, where the bitter cold is my new opponent. And Trinity Lorenzo? She's about as warm as a block of ice. I get it, she's fleeing an abusive boyfriend and she and I are strangers. But I always keep my word, and I promised Dalton I'd keep his prickly sister safe. If we want to live, the two of us will have to find a way to get along and work together.
Our ordeal draws Trinity and me closer, and fighting the pull between us becomes harder than anything we face while hoping for rescue. Whether we make it out or not, I need her. More than water or shelter—more than anything. Dalton will never forgive me if I cross the line with her, but surviving means something different now. Surviving means making her mine.
