Ethan, a rejected walk-on, sexts a stranger he thinks is his crush, not knowing it's rival captain Caleb, who hijacked the account on a bet. Caleb finds Ethan's birthmark and blackmails him, but the game turns to real feelings: he shields Ethan from bullying and fakes dating him to dodge an arranged marriage. A duel, a public coming out, a scheming fiancée, and a jealous rival test them before Ethan chooses Caleb, who gives up his family's future for hockey and love.
