I accidentally bid on a date with hockey star Rake Hanson, AKA Mr. Puck-Head, at a charity auction. Now I’m stuck with him. He’s the poster boy for everything I can’t stand in a guy – sports nut, ego, and that annoying thing called charm. Some “prize.” While his grunts and one-word answers threaten to drive me up the wall, at least he’s nice to look at with those broad shoulders, strong jawline, and big… hands. Regardless, he’s an unrepentant grouch. If he ever smiles, I have no doubt his face will crack. Our date, where I must beam for the cameras and pretend I don’t loathe every second of it, is destined to be a frosty disaster. It goes even worse than I imagine, involving a chartered flight to Vegas, too many cocktails at a roulette table, a wedding chapel, and a couple drunken “I do’s.” And now his sports agent won’t let me dump his sorry ass until the end of the season. So I, Petal Parker, am stuck in this bizarro world of stinky jocks, gossip columns, and flashy parties. But the touches… and the glances… threaten to melt the hard ice around my heart. As the final buzzer of the season nears, I find my fake relationship with Mr. Puck-Head skating dangerously close to scoring the real thing. Ditching my fake husband is suddenly no longer as urgent as his deep, sexy kisses. From USA Today bestselling author M. Lane comes a perfect combination of fun and sizzle about a sports hater and the hockey player she falls for. This slow-burn romance features a plucky main character and the one man she brings to his knees. If you like to indulge your secret bad-girl side, this is the book for you.
