Synopsis:
The first rule of hockey PR? Never date a player.
Which shouldn’t be a problem since the one guy who desperately needs an image overhaul is Tate Foster, our broody, bookish defenseman who thinks social media is a plague and that I—his team’s PR rep—am his personal nemesis.
By day, I’m a master spin doctor, making sure the Carolina Crushers shine in the press. By night, I’m a free spirit who loves a good “project.” So when I convince Tate to hop on my motorcycle for a viral PR stunt, I expect to boost his reputation. I don’t expect him to look ridiculously good doing it.
If I can turn Tate’s rough edges into something PR-friendly, I’ll finally land the NHL promotion I’ve been chasing. There’s just one problem: The more time I spend with him, the harder it gets to ignore those glasses I shouldn’t find attractive, and the rare but devastating smiles he tries to hide from me.
Next thing I know, my ex is crashing my family reunion, and I need a quick escape plan.
Tate offers to return the favor by posing as my boyfriend and charming my family, all while letting me craft his new image as a lovable, family-friendly player.
Now, the PR makeover is working almost too well, because suddenly, Tate Foster—grumpy, bookish, and infuriatingly hot Tate—is the most in-demand guy on the team.
And the only person completely, hopelessly falling for the act?
Me.
