Hannah Wells knows exactly what she wants in every part of her life except one. She's finally met someone who sparks her interest, but her sexual insecurities hold her back from making a move. To catch her crush's attention, she needs to break out of her safe zone and transform herself into someone noticeable. Her solution involves tutoring Garrett Graham, the arrogant hockey team captain she can barely tolerate, in exchange for him playing her fake boyfriend. Garrett faces his own crisis as his failing grades threaten his professional hockey dreams after graduation. A fake relationship with a sharp-tongued brunette seems like a small price to pay for academic help and staying on the team. Neither expects their arrangement to ignite genuine passion. One impulsive kiss changes everything, leading to intense physical chemistry that catches them both off guard. Garrett quickly realizes he wants more than their pretend romance, but convincing Hannah that he's the right man for her proves more challenging than any game he's played.
