Synopsis
POV you’re fake dating your ex’s favorite hockey player as revenge. What could go wrong? Chance McLanely needs to fix his reputation. I need a little revenge on my cheating ex. It’s a fake relationship with a payoff I can’t resist. He gets his image back. I get to watch my ex lose it while Chance McLanely puts his jacket around my shoulders. But the world doesn’t buy it. Chance McLanely falling for a mechanic like me? He’s rich, handsome, and charming. I’m more comfortable under a car than in front of a camera. When his glamorous ex starts showing up everywhere— When his high-society mother makes it clear I don’t belong— I start to think walking away might be easier. But Chance won’t let me. He keeps coming back every time I push him away. And when my world falls apart, he’s there beside me, helping me hold it together. This was supposed to be fake. So why does it feel like I’m the only one pretending?
