Movie Description
Straight blades meet toe-picks as a handsome ice hockey player has his professional career cut short from an accident, and then meets a figure skater whose prima donna attitude sends every prospective partner running--and his heart a flutter.
Synopsis
A rough and tumble ex-hockey player is paired with a frosty ice skater to form a dynamic amateur skating team. A powerful skater he has to put down his stick after an eye injury and learn the grace and discipline of the new sport. Reluctantly, he learns the ropes from his new partner who is a driven perfectionist. Their skating passion turns to romance as they race for the gold.
