Jesse Clarkson has kept two things at the center of his life: hockey and Belle, the stepsister who has been his closest friend for fifteen years.
Their friendship has grown into something neither of them can pretend is simple, and so has his need to protect the woman who lives with chronic migraines and has spent more than a decade as his most devoted fan.
To everyone else, Belle is family who almost never misses a game.
To Jesse, she is everything. Confessing the truth means facing a backlash that could cost them each other, yet staying silent may not keep her either.
