The 5-book series follows an elite ice hockey team and their romantic love interests as the ensemble comes of age in college at Briar University. The story shows ups and downs of on th ice as well as in life as the group navigates love, heartbreak and self discovery. The first four books zooms in on one hockey player and their significant other, with the fifth containing a novella-style format of all four couples’ stories.
The series will start off the same way the quintet of books does. Season 1 chronicles an “opposites attract” romance between quiet songwriter Hannah Wells and all-star hockey player Garrett Graham.

Deadline broke the news that Khobe Clarke (Cruel Intentions, Firefly Lane) will star in the recurring role of Briar’s star quarterback Beau Maxwell, who has been best friends with Kalyn’s Dean since high school. Beau’s older sister is the Broadway actor Joanna Maxwell, so he operates in both the sports and artsy social circles at Briar.
Deadline also first reported the casting of Steve Howey (Shameless, High Potential) as Garrett’s dad Phil Graham, former hockey legend who was well known for his temper in the rink. Phil pushes his son (Cameli’s character) to be great on skates. He has a big presence in Kennedy’s first book as well as in the second.
