There's a reason you shouldn't fake date a friend-because the biggest mistake you'll ever make might just be falling for them... and NEVER ever wanting to let them go.
Anna: As the assistant to the coach of the River City Renegades, my life is a whirlwind of schedules, crisis management, and saving the day when things go sideways. I love my job, but sometimes I wonder if there's more for me out there.
Then, I discovered my dad needs help. I'll do anything to support him-even if it means stepping out of my comfort zone. So when the team's publicist decides Ollie Decker, my long-time friend and the Renegades' star defenseman, needs a fake girlfriend to boost his image, I volunteer. After all, it's just pretend, it pays, and who knows Ollie better than me? But as the lines blur, I start to realize there's more to Ollie-and us-than I ever let myself see.
Ollie: Being on the ice is easy. Off the ice? Not so much. Apparently, I'm not relatable enough, and the team wants me to soften my tough guy image with a fake relationship. When Anna Denault offers to step in, I figure this'll be a breeze. But somewhere between staged date nights and late-night strategy sessions, I stop seeing Anna as just my rock and start noticing the spark that's been there all along.
Now I'm wondering if the biggest risk of my career isn't losing her as a friend but losing her entirely.
She could be the biggest mistake I've ever made...but also the only one I'll never regret.
Faking the Face Off is a closed door hockey romcom that includes tropes like fake dating, friends to lovers, and found family. This is the first book in a closed door hockey series with sizzling chemistry and swoony kisses.
