She has always been my always, but I'm still her someday.

Lottie's the only woman I've ever seen.
My best friend's little sister, a.k.a. the senator's daughter, who is forbidden to date hockey players because it will destroy her mom's perfect image.
Lottie, the one girl I wasn't supposed to fall for, but, whoops, I did, a long time ago.
I almost kissed her once, but she made it clear she wasn't interested and moving to DC forever.
For five long years, I tried to get over her. Every. Day.
Imagine my surprise when I'm called to play for a hockey tournament to celebrate our nation's birthday, and I find out I'm spending my summer in DC-right where she is.
It doesn't take long for me to see I still have a serious case of loving Lottie. Something else hasn't changed. Her mother still hates me and devises a plan to keep us apart. But my country hasn't picked me to wear a jersey for no reason. If an entire nation can trust me to fight for victory, I must believe in myself.
Between the pressure of games and the late-night fireworks-I'm not talking about the ones in the sky-I've decided I'm not backing down.
Not on the ice.
And not with Lottie.

My mother says Ty will ruin my future. My heart says he's the only future I want, and someday we'll find a way to be together.
Five years ago, I chose the easy path. I pretended he didn't matter, hoping that if I ignored the sparks long enough, the fire would burn out.
Now Ty's in DC for our nation's birthday, and it doesn't take long to find out the feelings I buried are more explosive than ever.
My mother still expects me to walk the line she drew for me. But I'm finally realizing that "someday" has a deadline. I have to choose: her expectations, or the man I can't afford to lose again.
Oh, Say Can You See is a brother's best friend, sweet hockey romcom.
