Egotistical Puckboy 

Anton - he’s worked to get where he is and people like Ezra irritate him, just because you’re gay doesn’t mean you need to bang everything with a pulse! Where’s the decorum? Where’s the discretion? Where’s the self worth in who you share your body with? People like Ezra is why Anton doesn’t share his personal life with the public, he’s gay and he’s proud of who he is but that doesn’t mean he needs to march in the next pride parade wearing a pink thong and body glitter….. everything comes to a head (no pun intended) when Anton is traded and guess who’s team he ends up on….

Ezra - “I’m queer and here” is basically his motto in life. Playboy is the title he is given and he lives up to that, unashamedly too. He’s free and single so what if he likes to share his body with sinfully beautiful men… He lives his life care free, except when it comes to Hockey, the sport he has been groomed for is the only thing that holds his heart with passion despite his father’s constant disappointment. That is until Anton joins his team. The uptight, judgmental hockey player with an ego that rivals his own. 

The hatred is undeniable. The attraction is undeniable. The passion is undeniable. Anton set rules but dammit if Ezra isn’t the exception. In the end will Anton he enough for Ezra, will their love be enough to withstand the pressure of the public, the pressure of the game, the pressure of expectations…. Only time will tell.
