Jules:
One of the hardest lessons I’ve learned is that the only thing I need is hockey - because hockey has never let me down, never abandoned me. What I lack in my personal life, I make up for with my professional achievements. I’m damn proud of the career I’ve had in the NHL and have no plans of stopping or jeopardizing it by coming out.
That is until I meet Sterling.
He does the unthinkable, he gives me hope, makes me wish for more… and then dashes those hopes and wishes to dust.
In the aftermath, I become someone I don’t particularly like, but that someone doesn’t really care either.
Then, it’s hockey—once more—that saves me.
So yeah, hockey is all I have and all I need.

Sterling:
I know I f***ed up.
That I had an excellent reason not to contact Jules after I promised I would—after all my life was a tornado at the time—doesn’t mean I didn’t f*ck up.
I know it and I’m prepared to fix this mess now that I moved to Vegas permanently.
But the man I met more than two years ago is nowhere to be found. The one who opens the door when I come knocking isn’t the sweet boy who desperately wanted someone to take care of him.
No, this man is cynical and detached. Worst of all, he’s hell-bent on never giving me anything real again.

No matter how brief our time was, I know he’s the only person—and I’ve met a lot of people—who’s ever made me want more.
So yes, I’ll fight to repair what I broke and then hopefully we’ll prepare for the rest of our lives together.
The only question is, will it all be in vain?

They are living rent free in my brain right now.

I'm obsessed and still feeling all the feels.

I am not over this.

✨What if love threatened to destroy everything you’d worked for?✨

Hockey right winger Tyler Jensen isn’t thrilled to get the news he’s been traded to the Bethesda Barracudas. The team may be red-hot in the rankings, but there’s someone there he’d rather not have to see every day.

Defenseman Kevin Moore is one of the top-rated rookies in the country. He’s living the dream playing for the Barracudas—until he hears that his old high-school crush Tyler is joining the team. Ty was once everything Kev wanted, but their age difference got in the way. Tyler decided a three-year gap was too much and left Kevin behind.

I knew it would wreck me.

I knew I would cry.

I knew I'd yell at the TV.

I knew I would love it.

Thank you to all who made this possible and the incredible actors who brought this story to life.

This beautiful, tragic love story spans time and I'm so grateful for it.

Family Time!

I heard somewhere that once your children become adults and start their own families you become part of the extended family. It really struck me because I had a hard time when my oldest first moved away.

I missed them immensely. They were my partner in crime, we lived listening to Broadway musicals, talking about life and just spending time together.

8 months ago they moved for the 3rd time in 3 years and it's the farthest away they've ever been. At first I was upset and then I remembered the quote I heard and my attitude changed.

Recently we visited them and I realized they are so happy where they are. Their friends are family, they smile a lot, they talk all about their new job and they are experiencing life in ways I never thought they would.

My heart was so full of pride and love for this adult, who was my first child. Seeing all of my children interact as adults, with their friends and partners is one of the best things in the world.
