Getting involved with your brother’s best friend is risky enough. But when he's a hockey player? It's a whole new level of bad idea.
As a ravenous reader, I’ve got a secret: I’m obsessed with hockey romances.
But let me tell you, real life hockey players are nothing like my book boyfriends.
So I threw down the gauntlet on BookTok. I challenged any single guy out there to prove me wrong. Can a real hockey player be as romantic as the ones in my favorite stories?
Enter Dawson Hayes, a goalie with a point to prove and my brother’s best friend. He’s confident he can win me over and take me on the most romantic date of my life.
But there’s a catch: for me to accept, I have to pretend that he’s my fake boyfriend.
And while he’s unfairly gorgeous, he’s also my brother’s teammate and his best friend.
Keeping him in the fake boyfriend zone is the only way to deal with my secret attraction.
Turns out, the line between fake and real isn't just blurry, it’s become impossible to tell the difference when he looks at me with those eyes that say, You’re mine.
DAWSON
The first time I met Emmy, her brother warned me to stay away. As hockey teammates, that made her totally off-limits.
Now I’m back in Emmy’s small town to play hockey, and I can’t resist her dating challenge: to find out if any man can be more romantic than the book boyfriends she adores.
Emmy and I are both fiercely competitive, and I’m determined to win her over.
When the moment of truth comes, the chemistry between us turns into something neither of us expected:
A romantic face-off between friends who are insanely attracted to each other.
Now, I’m out to prove to her that you should never judge a book by its cover—or a hockey player when it comes to love.
