I've hated Theo Thompson ever since he crashed my twenty-first birthday and gave me a lap dance. Now I'm stuck in a cabin with the obnoxiously hot pro hockey player for the next two months. He's been suspended from his team for his party boy ways, and is laying low at his cousin's cabin to get out of the public eye. And since his cousin is my best friend, I promised her I'd look after her place so Theo doesn't trash it. But the more time we spend together, the more I realize I have the wrong idea about him. He's romantic, sweet, funny, and volunteers with kids.

I’m the most hated player in the NHL. I’m famous for fighting dirty, and it’s earned me a nickname: Dirty Del. When I get traded to the Denver Bashers, I’m told to clean up my act. The team’s social media girl, Ingrid, is helping me sweeten my public image. She’s everything I’m not: bubbly and likable with a sunshine smile. She’s also stunningly beautiful—and totally off limits. Her cousin—my teammate—hates my guts and warned me to stay away from her.

Two things matter to me: hockey and getting my stick wet off the ice, if you catch my drift. But then I meet Sophie Porter. She’s the Bashers team doctor–and the daughter of my head coach. And she’s got a proposition for me: fake date so that she can set boundaries with her overprotective dad. It’s an easy “yes” for me. I’d never have a chance with this beautiful and brilliant woman in real life. She’s a good girl with a naughty streak–my weakness. She makes me feel wanted and safe.

My brain is hard-wired to hockey. To train hard, to win, to be the best. I don’t date, I basically live and breathe hockey and I plan everything. Until I find a newborn baby outside my apartment.

Revolution Racing has its first ever all female team, and rookie Savannah Hart is ready to prove herself. Even though Savi grew up on a ranch in Wyoming, she’s happiest on the racetrack.

Marco De Luca is an all-star driver, and a hopeless romantic at heart. He agrees to be in a fake relationship with Savi to keep the press off the scent of her famous boyfriend, but he certainly couldn’t have predicted how hard it would be to push his feelings aside.

On the ice I’m formidable, relentless and I lead by example. Now my coach wants me to step up as Captain – and lead the team off the ice too.

We have a history… it’s awkward, she’s starting to invade my fantasies and I can’t seem to escape her. But maybe she could be the answer to my problems…
