From a New York Times bestselling author, a second-chance rom-com about an author who goes viral when readers discover her book's hero was inspired by a beloved pro hockey player -- and her high school crush.

Debut author Gemma Stanton knows romance readers love a bad boy -- and she has the perfect prototype for her novel: Mason Moretti. High school hockey god-turned-pro player, Mason was Gemma's first crush, but she couldn't forget the sting of his very public rejection. So, she casts him as a hot-headed Highlander in her spicy new historical romance.

She never expected readers would find out on live TV when a morning show host invites Mason for a surprise on-air reunion...
As an aging hockey player with a rep for being ruthless on the ice -- and roguish off of it -- Mason has an image problem. So, when his meet-cute with Gemma goes viral, Mason proposes they build on the momentum with a few fake dates to boost her book sales -- and his sagging profile.

But when the fictional flirting gets a little too real, Mason realizes Gemma actually makes him want to become a better man -- someone worthy of her trust and her love.
