About H.A. Laine

H.A. Laine writes hockey romance with the precision of an athletic therapist and the psychological insight of a counselor. The Thin Ice series, featuring Unassisted and Between the Glass, explores what happens when professional competence collides with personal vulnerability. These are romances for readers who believe that the slow work of healing, the courage of authenticity, and the precision of expertise are inherently romantic. The series signature is the 'Translation Game', using professional vocabulary (medical terms, journalistic phrases) as coded intimate language between lovers. When not writing, H.A. Laine can be found researching hockey operations, consulting with athletic trainers about shoulder injuries, or analyzing the psychology of locker room culture.
