Lila Hamilton is thrilled to be joining the Pittsburgh Bearcats, the League's latest expansion team. She's rehabbed from her knee injury and ready for a fresh start in a new city.

But did Pittsburgh have to sign Sabrina McAvoy?

Lila's played with and against Sabrina before. She's hot and she's exactly Lila's type, but she's also hockey royalty?her father was a generational talent, and her brother is a star in the men's league. Players, coaches, and sports commentators fawn all over her because of her family name, and Sabrina shamelessly exploits that.

Lila doesn't care how attractive she is?no, thanks.

But there's more to Sabrina's story than Lila realizes.

Sabrina knows what people say. That her journey to professional hockey was an easy one thanks to her dad. That she left her ex-husband and reverted back to her maiden name so she could leverage her family's dynasty to sign with a team. That she's nothing more than a nepo baby on skates.

But she knows the truth, and this is her chance to prove she deserves to play at this level on her own merits. Prove it to the haters. Prove it to her father.

And absolutely prove it to Lila Hamilton.
