About this ebook

He’s her PR nightmare. She’s his forbidden fantasy. Falling in love was never part of the game.

Tank Phillips is used to scoring—on and off the ice. But after a scandalous night with two puck bunnies makes headlines, the cocky star of the Stingrays is benched in more ways than one. His only shot at salvaging his career? A squeaky-clean image makeover…starting with a fake girlfriend.

Enter McKenna Bailey—nerdy, no-nonsense, and painfully new at her job as the Stingrays’ social media manager. Tasked with taming Tank’s wild reputation, she’d rather be buried in data analytics than babysitting the team’s notorious playboy. He calls her mouse, barely remembers her name, and flashes that infuriating grin like he owns the world. But the more time they spend together faking a romance, the more the chemistry between them feels dangerously real.

McKenna has her own secret—one that could blow everything up: she’s the estranged daughter of Coach Fields. And when the truth comes out, Daddy Dearest gives Tank a hard warning—stay away from my little girl.

But Tank’s never been one to play by the rules…especially when the one thing he wants most is finally within reach.

He’s her PR nightmare. She’s his forbidden fantasy. Falling in love was never part of the game. Tank Phillips is used to scoring—on and off the ice. But after a scandalous night with two puck bunnies makes headlines, the cocky star of the Stingrays is benched in more ways than one. His only shot ...

Bad boy falls hard! When Tank’s career is in jeopardy, he is forced by the team to get a babysitter to improve his image. What happens next was a delightful and steamy sports romance that did not disappoint. I enjoyed watching Tank fall hard for social media manager McKenna, but will it all fall apart when her secret is discovered? One click to find out in this enjoyable addition to the series. I can’t wait to see who falls next!

Ah, the joys of fake dating after switching from enemies to friends, and some wild chemistry thrown in! These two were definitely opposites attract, and none of it was superficial, they just didn’t realize it right away. A natural evolving of their relationship, which they didn’t want to admit to themselves, and an almost too late realization, kept them, and me, on my toes. And that twist, that twist that was so unexpected and completely blindsided me, I think I loved that most of all 😊

I Loved It!!! I am truly enjoying reading this series. In my view, because Tank and McKenna are “fake dating”, Mari Carr put an “honesty” spin on this story. It was so refreshing to see the characters be totally transparent with each other within the development of their relationship. Towards the end the feelings start to grow and it becomes harder to be honest when you don’t know if the other feels the same way. To risk being hurt is sometimes harder than being honest. Five Wonderful Stars!!
