About this ebook

A sexy standalone novel* from New York Times and international bestselling author Elle Kennedy!

She’s about to make a deal with the college bad boy…

Hannah Wells has finally found someone who turns her on. But while she might be confident in every other area of her life, she’s carting around a full set of baggage when it comes to sex and seduction. If she wants to get her crush’s attention, she’ll have to step out of her comfort zone and make him take notice…even if it means tutoring the annoying, childish, cocky captain of the hockey team in exchange for a pretend date.

…and it’s going to be oh so good

All Garrett Graham has ever wanted is to play professional hockey after graduation, but his plummeting GPA is threatening everything he’s worked so hard for. If helping a sarcastic brunette make another guy jealous will help him secure his position on the team, he’s all for it. But when one unexpected kiss leads to the wildest sex of both their lives, it doesn’t take long for Garrett to realize that pretend isn’t going to cut it. Now he just has to convince Hannah that the man she wants looks a lot like him.

Ratings and reviews

YES YES YES if you think sbout reading this book then yes DO IT. I love this book so much it's one of my favorites. What I like about this book is that it's not plain romance it does have some classic elements but I love how they included in her story that something tragic happend and they WORKES ON IT. I really really live this book and I would recommend this a 100% go read this NOW!!!

Couldn't put it down. The establishment of the main relationship was fun, engaging and hot. Both were interesting characters with challenges to overcome. Really enjoyed the book, looking forward to reading the rest of the series and hoping they hold up to book 1.

I wanted to read a stupid, predictable romance. In that sense, I was sadly disappointed. Instead I really, really enjoyed this book. I laughed out loud several times, I felt like crying, too. The characters are actually that: characters. Not just a trope to play with. They actually feel like people. Giving 4 stars, because we couldn't shy away from ALL the overused tropes of every romance ever, but I think this book is worth a reread at some point. Probably with a hot cuppa and some cake.
