Home of the Brave

Taking a hit from a two-hundred-pound defenseman hurts, but the words she wrote about me left scars.

Victoria Kehoe’s mission in life is to bring awareness and support to professional women's hockey. After a career-ending injury during college, she decided the best way to do that was through journalism. Give the women equal, if not more, coverage! Shout their victories from the headlines! Make the players household names!

When the Stars and Stripes Tournament is announced, Victoria sees it as the perfect opportunity to put the spotlight on the most talented athletes. The women.

Until she gets there and absolutely everything goes wrong. Her dreams are slipping out of reach, but one person might be able to help.

Josh Hensen isn’t quite sure how he earned the spot as starting goalie on the Stars’ team, representing the West Division. Call it impostor syndrome or humility. Either way, a nagging voice has always told him someone is waiting for him to mess up and take his place.

A voice that sounds an awful lot like the reporter who just showed up to cover the games for one of the top sports channels.

Can Victoria and Josh overcome their tangled past, or will they both face the ultimate loss of their careers?
