Neither will Richard tell his wife that he still has other children outside the marriage. It is not their place to tell, they will try to convince themselves. If fate hides it for them why should they exhume it? Neither will I ever tell Dafe that the reason why I proposed to him is because my supposed prince charming, the man I thought was the answer to my prayers ended up being a broke pimp who lived off a wealthy single mother.

From USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Sucevic comes a steamy, enemies-to-lovers, fake dating new adult sports romance that is laugh out loud funny featuring a strong heroine and the cocky hockey player who falls first and hard for her. Brody McKinnon is Whitmore University's star defenseman destined for NHL greatness. He made a name for himself playing juniors before gracing us with his esteemed presence. As much as it pains me to admit it, he’s exploded at the college level. While other girls fall all over themselves trying to gain his attention, I do my best to steer clear just as I would a particularly nasty case of crabs. For reasons I can't fathom, Brody takes great pleasure in messing with me. And I, in return, enjoy slicing him to ribbons with my razor-sharp tongue. You'd think after three years, he'd learn to keep his distance. No such luck. Unfortunately for me, I’m about to experience the worst week of my life. It starts with my ex-boyfriend announcing at a party that I’m a lousy lay. He’s the hockey-playing jerk I dated last year who left a bad taste in my mouth (*eyeroll* seriously…get your mind out of the gutter). Want to guess who rides in on his trusty white steed to rescue me? Or should I say, opens his big mouth? Yep, you guessed it. Brody freaking McKinnon, the guy I love to hate. He only makes matters worse by telling everyone that we’re together and then punching Reed in the face. The first…I plan on strangling him for. The second…I’m only sorry I didn’t get to Reed first. Now I’m stuck fake-dating Brody, the one guy who makes me feel like a rabid dog on a choke chain, for the foreseeable future. I guarantee we won’t last more than seventy-two hours without me killing him. --- “This book just made it to my favorites list for sure!” -Christy, GoodReads “This book was cute and had me instantly loving the pair together.

From USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Sucevic comes a steamy and off-limits friends-to-lovers new adult sports romance that is laugh out loud funny featuring a strong virgin heroine and the cocky hockey player who falls first and hard for her. Can a guy and girl ever be just friends? I used to think so but now, I’m not so sure. Emerson and I met freshman year of high school and we’ve been tight ever since. I’ve been pretty good about keeping her locked in the girls I don’t think about having sex with part of my brain. Which is no easy feat because, let’s face it, unless we’re related, you’re potential spank bank material. Luckily for me, Southern University has an overabundance of Red Devils hockey groupies, which means there are always plenty of puck bunnies for me to choose from. I’m just careful to make sure they look nothing like Em. So, it should be all good in the hood, right? Wrong. I’m embarrassed to admit this, but lately, I can’t seem to get it up. Unless an image of Em pops into my head. Then it’s all systems go. It’s a messed-up situation. One Emerson is blissfully unaware of. And that’s exactly the way it needs to stay. What I’ve learned is that friendship is a hell of a lot harder to come by than hookups. Ready for a complication? It turns out that Em is a virgin. And she wants me to be the one to, well…take care of business. You better believe I shot down the idea before it could gain traction in my brain. Maybe Em doesn’t realize it, but remaining friends after you’ve slept with someone happens about as often as spotting a tie-dye colored unicorn that craps sprinkles. If it weren’t rare, everyone would be doing it, right? Exactly. As far as I’m concerned, Emerson has remained a virgin for this long, she can damn well wait to do the deed until after we part ways next year. Unfortunately, my best friend has other ideas. Which pretty much means I’m screwed. And not in a good way. ---- “You can feel the emotions these characters go through and you just want to shake em up, to just reveal their heart's desires” -Ashin, GoodReads “Reed is so considerate of Em at all times, and Em just can't help but melt against him. Reed is alpha when he wants to be, but a cute bear whom you just want to squish and cuddle with” -Ashin, GoodReads “This one is hot and but manages to give you the warm and fuzzies at the same time” -Lisa, GoodReads “It had me swooning, crying happy tears and doing a happy dance at the end!” -Brittany, GoodReads “I'm so in love with this author, this was a great summer read!” -Shari, GoodReads --- Keywords: Sports romance, alpha male, Sports romance books, Hockey romance, Friends-to-lovers, College, university romance, College romance, College sports romance, Virgin romance, He falls first, College hockey romance, humor, laugh, sexy, swoony, Off-limits romance, Campus Series, Claremont Cougars, Barnett Bulldogs, Romance book, Best seller, New release, Swoon, Funny, love, friends, Hate to Love You, King of Campus, Campus Player, playboy, romance series, steamy, spicy, hot, hot romance, sparks fly, new adult, new adult sports romance, found family, athlete, good girl, bad boy, opposites attract, hockey player, former playboy, student, girl next door, innocent Readers also enjoyed books by: Natasha Madison, Kristen Callihan, Anna Todd, Nana Malone, Sarina Bowen, LJ Shen, Lucy Score, Elle Kennedy, Helena Hunting, Rebecca Jenshak, Gina Azzi, Jamie Davenport, Hannah Grace, Piper Lawson, Cathryn Fox, Ember Leigh, J.H.
