A sexy stand-alone novel from New York Times and international best-selling author Elle Kennedy.

Everyone says I’m a bad girl. They’re only partly right - I don’t let fear rule me, and I certainly don’t care what people think. But I draw the line at sleeping with the enemy. As the daughter of Briar’s head hockey coach, I’d be vilified if I hooked up with a player from a rival team.

And that’s who Jake Connelly is. Harvard’s star forward is arrogant, annoying, and too attractive for his own good. But fate is cruel - I require his help to secure a much-coveted internship, and the sexy jerk isn’t making it easy for me.

I need Connelly to be my fake boyfriend.

For every fake date…he wants a real one.

Which means this bad girl is in big trouble. Nothing good can come from sneaking around with Jake Connelly. My father would kill me, my friends will revolt, and my post-college career is on the line. But while it’s getting harder and harder to resist Jake’s oozing sex appeal and cocky grin, I refuse to fall for him.

That’s the one risk I’m not willing to take.

I loved this book in the series. So much angst but Jake & Brenna were 🔥 when they finally get together.

I really loved that Brenna & her Dad finally worked everything out. I literally had tears in my eyes when they had the heart to heart. She was so damaged from the past situation and really felt like she had no one on her side which absolutely broke my heart.

Holy hilarious was the side relationship of Hollis & the stalker girlfriend 😂 It had me in stitches laughing!

Highly recommend this series!

It started off a bit confusing for me, I had to work out who she was in connection to the other characters in the book, it ended up making sense. I ending up loving this story so much I hated the fact it ended, I could have easily kept enjoying the strong and wished it had ended with another page or so

Loved it

From the very beginning I was completely invested in Brenna and Jake. Their chemistry, banter, and emotional connection made it impossible to put down.

Brenna was such a strong female character and Jake completely won me over. Their relationship felt genuine, and I loved watching it develop.

This is definitely one of the standout books in the series and one I’ll happily reread.

This was such a fantastic read and definitely one of the top stories in the series for me.

Tedd and Virginia were amazing at reading this, this the best book i've ever read/listened. The voices enveloped me into the story and the comedy in this book was so great, i loved trying to conceal a laugh in public while I listened to the book.

Breath of fresh air
