Jaden Lewis, the star defenseman of the NHL team the Cranes, is used to getting what he wants—on and off the ice. Confident, charming, and relentless, he’s never backed down from a challenge. But when he finally meets his ultimate celebrity crush, the breathtaking and fiercely independent Annalise Sterling, he realizes he’s up against his toughest opponent yet. She isn’t impressed by his fame, and she definitely isn’t looking for love.
As the daughter of Hollywood royalty, Annalise Sterling has spent her entire life fighting to prove she’s more than just a famous last name. She’s worked tirelessly to earn respect in the industry on her own terms, determined to step out of her parents’ shadow. Relationships have never been part of the plan—too messy, too distracting. But when an unexpected situation threatens everything she’s built, Jaden offers the perfect solution: a fake relationship.
It’s simple. No feelings. No complications. Just a mutually beneficial arrangement.
Until it isn’t.
The more time they spend together, the more the lines between pretend and reality blur. Annalise never expected to fall, but Jaden makes it easy. And for Jaden, Annalise is everything he never knew he needed.
But love comes with risks. She has to be brave enough to take the leap, and he has to hold on to the one thing he’s always wanted.
The only question is—will they be strong enough to fight for it?
