Graciella’s life is falling apart… again.

Broke, unemployed, and desperate, she does what any independent woman would do—finesses her way into a job. Unfortunately, it comes with the nearly impossible task of fixing the reputation of NHL coach Josh Monroe, who’s been an ill-tempered problem for the league since a devastating injury ended his playing career. Not even a Stanley Cup win could fix his image, but somehow she’s supposed to in a mere three months.

With both of their futures at stake, Gracie comes up with a bold PR plan to win people over: a fake relationship…just not with her.

Which suits the relationship-averse Graciella just fine. The man barely tolerates her anyway. But spending time with the hot, grumpy single dad and his sweet daughter shows her a whole different side of the man the world loves to hate. Monroe’s gruff complaints soften, and the hard shell guarding her heart cracks with each passing day.

Graciella’s “brilliant” plan lands her in a face off with fate. Falling for Monroe could cost them their careers—but what if it gives them everything they've been missing?
