A fake relationship with the Wolves’ star goalie might be the realest thing she’s ever known. Lyla Wayne had it all—popularity, football quarterback boyfriend, and a packed social calendar. But after tragedy flips her world upside down, she finds herself on the outside of everything she once knew. Isolated, spiraling, and desperate for a fresh start, the last thing she expects is Wyatt Scott. Wyatt isn’t just the top goalie in college hockey—he’s steady, loyal, and has been quietly nursing a broken heart over Lyla, the girl who’s always been just out of reach. So when a fake relationship with his longtime crush offers a shot at something real, he doesn’t hesitate to play along… even if it risks everything. Can they turn pretend into something real and finally write the love story that never had a chance to start, or will it all fall apart before the final buzzer? For fans of The Deal by Elle Kennedy and Icebreaker by Hannah Grace, Deking is an emotional, slow-burn college sports romance you won’t want to miss. Grab your copy—your next Walker Wolves favorite is waiting.
