About this ebook

Brand new release in the erotic romance small town series by NYT and USA Today bestselling author Zoe York!

It started with a kiss... 

Mari Beadie needed a boyfriend, and former NHL hockey star Chase Miller happened to be in the right place at the right time. The kiss that followed wasn't necessary, strictly speaking, but it sure was hot. 

Hot enough that when the tables are turned, Chase knows just the pretty bartender to ask to be his pretend girlfriend. Only this time, it's not a one-time deal.

The pub was slammed, strange for a Sunday night, but it was one of the last weekends of the summer. The tips would make up for the sore feet. 

Mari was pouring a tray of pints when the phone rang. She hopped over and stuck the ancient handset under her ear, pinning it in place as she pulled the long cord back to the taps with her. 

“Danny’s.” 

“You sound busy.” 

Her heart didn’t leap a little at the sound of his voice. No, it didn’t. “Yep.” 

“What time do you get off?” 

“We close at ten tonight, then I need to do some clean up. Probably ten thirty, but I’m not sure.” 

“Okay. See you later.” 

She frowned as she hung up the phone. Two hours later, she was still confused when he sauntered in after last call. Instead of taking his regular stool, he started straightening chairs. 

“What are you doing?” 

“Helping you.” 

“Why?” 

“Because that’s what boyfriends do?” 

She looked around. They were alone. “Uhm…” 

“Because that’s what friends do?” He shrugged. “Don’t overthink it. I actually just wanted to give you my cell phone number, but when I called you sounded swamped, so I thought it would be easier to stop by. And I’m not going to watch you sweep, that would be a dick move.” 

“You watch me tend bar almost every day.” 

“That’s different.” 

“How?” 

“I don’t know. Give me that.” He took the broom from her hand, and she ignored the little thrill she got at the brief, hot press of his fingers against hers.

Ratings and reviews

Chase and Mari did a great fake romance, which was funny, because neither really wanted it to be fake from the beginning. But even with all that zingy attraction, they became friends first, and then let things progress from there. Sweet and sexy, they let things grow organically and talked about the miscommunication and expectations. Good thing, because when things got rough, they were solid. Loved them both so much!

I loved it! Keeps you wanting to know what happens next. Is there a second book to this one? Really want to know what happens after their wedding. This is a MUST read!!

Enjoyed reading this book about Chase and Mari. He was broken and she help get through it. They found love with each other.
