He spent his life blending into the background. Until one reporter noticed everything about him.BEN WHITAKER has always been the reliable one. The steady defenseman. The teammate everyone counts on. Never the star—always the support. He's built his entire identity on being the person others need, never the one they truly see.
DANIEL BALE sees everything. As a sports journalist assigned to profile the Northlake Blue Foxes hockey team, his perceptive gaze misses nothing. He notices the quiet strength in Ben that others overlook. The dedication behind his steady presence. The longing to be recognized for who he truly is.
When forced proximity brings them together, professional boundaries begin to blur. Each interview reveals more than either intended. Each observation creates an intimacy that threatens both their carefully constructed walls.
Ben has spent years avoiding being looked at too closely.

As winter deepens around Northlake University, they'll have to decide what matters maintaining the roles they've always played, or finally allowing themselves to be seen—and chosen—exactly as they are.
DEEP POSITION is the fourth standalone novel in the Northlake Blue Foxes series featuring emotional slow burns, hockey culture, and found family. Each book follows a different couple while returning to beloved characters throughout the series.
