Days on thin ice… nights on fire.
One fake boyfriend. One bed. And one rule we’re definitely about to break.
Brooks Kingston. My older brother’s best friend. My childhood nemesis. The cocky hockey god who once made my life a living hell… and now kisses me like I’m the only goal he’s ever wanted to score.
The infuriating man is back in Beaver County, nursing a shoulder injury and grumping up the local frozen lake. And thanks to one tiny, inconvenient lie that lands me my dream sportscaster promotion and makes his adorable ailing grandma happy, I’m suddenly playing the role of doting girlfriend to my childhood nemesis.
Fake dating I can handle.
Moving in with him? A stretch.
Sharing a bed with the man who once chopped off my ponytail—and now kisses like sin? That’s where the plan starts to melt faster than the ice beneath his skates.
Between the steamy "just for the cameras" touches and his unexpectedly sweet late-night confessions, I start to wonder if maybe the sparks flying between us aren’t so fake after all.
But when his injury heals, he’ll go back to pro hockey. I’ll go back to chasing my dream. And neither of us is ready to admit that maybe… this is the dream.
