Agreeing to marry your best friend to get him a lucrative hockey contract while balancing a nationwide tour and keeping feelings off the table is simple. . .I think.

Declan and me have been friends for as long as I can remember. So when he calls me and asks me to marry him to clean up his reputation and save his hotshot hockey career, I agree immediately. He’ll be busy with hockey and I’ll be away on tour with my band. It’ll be easy to keep feelings out of the equation when we don’t see each other.
Except the dangers that I thought were long gone and locked up turn out to be roaming free and back after us. Declan leaves my side as little as possible, convinced he can keep me safe. But with his proximity comes all the feelings I’ve been keeping buried for years. I don’t know how to keep my fake marriage from feeling real while also trying to make sure everyone I care about stays alive. Not for the first time, I’m wondering if I jumped into something too fast.
The closer we get to finding out what really happened to Ezra, the closer we come to danger. We have to decide if the prize is worth the price. I used to think it was. But that was when Declan was thousands of miles away. Now that he’s living in my house and sleeping in my bed, can I really risk his life too? Does Ezra even want to be found?

As more and more secrets come to light, it becomes clear we can’t trust anyone. Even those closest to us. The only thing I know for certain is that I can trust Declan with my life, but can I trust him with my heart?
