Crosby: A Portland Wildfire Hockey Romance

Award-winning documentary filmmaker Juno Paxton has built her reputation on tearing down the myths people build around their heroes—and professional hockey is her next target.

When the Portland Wildfire, the NHL's flashy new expansion team, offers Juno full behind-the-scenes access for an entire season, she knows exactly what she's going to find: oversized egos, manufactured personas, and a sport drowning in its own mythology. The league wants an "authentic" film. What they'll get is the truth—no matter how ugly.

Then she meets Crosby Hale.

The Wildfire's starting goalie is nothing like the preening athletes she expected. He's guarded, intensely focused, and absolutely infuriating in the way he refuses to perform for her camera. He doesn't want her here. She doesn't want to want him. And yet every time they end up in the same room, the tension between them burns hotter than any rivalry Juno has ever documented.

Crosby has secrets he guards as fiercely as he guards the net, and Juno's instincts are screaming that the real story lives somewhere behind those cold, careful eyes. Getting to it means getting closer to him—dangerously closer.

This dark, steamy Portland Wildfire hockey romance proves that the most dangerous game isn't played on ice. It's played between two people who should know better and can't seem to stop.

Some stories change the people who tell them.
