I've been in love with my barista for six months. But she doesn't even know my name.
Every morning, I stumble through ordering coffee from Sophie Johnson, the gorgeous woman who makes my pro hockey coordination disappear with just a smile. I'm Lucian ‘Luke’ Davidson, I can handle sold-out arenas, but ask me to form a sentence around Sophie? Forget it.
Then I overhear her crying about needing a fake boyfriend to stop her mother's matchmaking schemes. Her inheritance depends on giving "serious dating" one more try.
This is my shot.
One impulsive proposal later, I'm Sophie's pretend boyfriend. What starts as helping her out becomes the most real thing in my life. She's never had someone support her dreams without controlling them. I've never had someone see past the hockey player to the guy underneath.
Now I just have to convince the woman who's afraid to trust anyone that sometimes the best love stories start with the worst ideas.
A sweet, closed-door hockey romance featuring a shy curvy heroine finding her voice, a cinnamon roll professional hockey player who falls first and falls hard, black love, and the fake dating relationship that becomes the most real thing in both their lives.
