Nobody warned Avery Kane about Knox Callahan. Not the grocery store strangers who mentioned his name like a caution. Not the group chat that exploded the second she arrived. Not even her father — the man who uprooted her entire life to coach a hockey team in a Minnesota town she'd never heard of — who watched the whole thing happen from behind a whistle and a clipboard and said absolutely nothing useful. Knox is the team captain. The local legend. The boy with the full scholarship offer and the smile that should require a permit. He is also, as of November, Avery's boyfriend — which would be perfect if he weren't already leaving. Then there's Finn. Steady, warm, dangerous in a completely different way. Then there's a photograph of her mother. Twenty years old. Laughing at a Minnesota lake. In a town her mother swore she'd never been. Then there's Theo — quiet, ink-stained, annoyingly perceptive — who sits down next to her in a library and asks the one question that changes everything. Avery came to Evergreen to survive senior year. She didn't expect to find out she'd been here all along.
