Blind Side
Kandi Steiner returns to her Red Zone hockey universe with the kind of second-chance plot that makes a series like this work. Vivian DeGrace is a sharp-elbowed sports journalist trying to claw her way out of fluff features and onto the real Carolina Comets beat. Her assignment, run a season-long profile on Vince Tanev, the team captain who once promised her forever before quietly disappearing on her in college. Forced into a hundred shared flights, locker room post-mortems, and after-hours interviews, Vivian and Vince have to relitigate every wound that broke them while a championship run hangs in the balance. Steiner pairs steamy locker-room banter with the kind of long, patient emotional conversations the genre has lately been craving.
