Practice, Not Perfect

Kate’s got two weeks to fake being a hockey superfan—and she’s already skating on thin ice. When her harmless crush on star player Grady spirals into a big, fat lie, she turns to his rival, the grumpy and irresistible Carver Reed, for help. Their deal? Pretend to date and save his rep while she learns the rules of the game. Easy… right? But between late-night practices, sharp banter, and one too many “accidental” touches, the line between fake and real starts to blur fast. With secrets, sparks, and power plays flying, Kate’s about to learn that the hardest part of hockey isn’t the ice—it’s keeping her heart from slipping.
