Hockey, reputation, and a difficult choice

Fifteen-year-old Jessie McIntyre’s life is shaped by her place on a hockey team, her relationship with her boyfriend, and the coach she admires. After a decision at a party alters those familiar parts of her world, classmates’ persistence keeps the consequences in view. Hockey provides the story’s young-adult setting, while the conflict centers on social pressure and the way one choice can affect someone’s standing at school.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young readers interested in hockey-centered fiction
  • Readers drawn to school and peer-pressure conflicts
  • Fans of young-adult stories about the consequences of difficult choices

Book overview

Jessie McIntyre, 15, has it made. She's got the world's best boyfriend, great teammates, and a hockey coach she really looks up to. But a bad decision at a party changes everything. Worse, some of the guys at school seem determined not to let her, or anyone else, forget it.

Face Off is a recipient of a Moonbeam silver medal. Power Plays (Book 1 in the Jessie Mac Hockey Series) won a Moonbeam gold medal and was a finalist for the Saskatchewan Book Awards, Snow Willow Awards, and BC Young Readers Choice (Stellar) Awards.
