Dane is a cocky downhill racer, but he carries a dark secret with him. When he meets Willow on a snowy night, she fills that empty space in him, but the big question is whether Dane can move past his "once and done" behavior when it comes to women. 
 Unexpected news and circumstances force Willow and Dane together, and even though Dane can be quite the s.o.b., my heart broke a bit for him when his reasons for keeping arms length from Willow are revealed. Good thing the lovely Willow has faith and understanding. I loved Dane's journey from cocky, love-em-and-leave-em sports star to where he ends up.
