Publisher Description
In peak physical shape from hitting the gym hard in the offseason? Check. Officially the highest paid defenseman on the Sin City Saints? Check. Faking a relationship with a woman he’s secretly crazy in love with? Unfortunately, that’s a big check.
The son of a legendary pro basketball player, Pax Bishop was poised to follow in his father’s footsteps when life took him in another direction. Now a pro hockey player, he must find a way to reject the advances of the daughter of his team’s new owner without offending her.
Kylie Thomas gives Pax the perfect out. She’s single, and pretending to be attracted to her? That won’t be an issue for Pax, because he’s secretly had it bad for her since the day they met. He can’t let his true feelings show, though, because not only is Kylie a single mom and a widow, she’s Pax’s teammate’s sister.
Sometimes the truth hurts, but it can also be deeply, maddeningly good. The stakes are high as Pax opens his wounded heart in hopes he’s not the only one whose feelings are more than just a bluff.

All the feels
Be still my beating heart !!!
What can I say about Pax apart from this man has stolen a piece of my heart and I’m not sure I will ever get it back. This is hot hockey player Pax and single mum and widow Kylie’s emotional yet entertaining journey and I was drawn in from the first page and there was no putting down until the final word had been read. I knew this was a very special read as soon as I picked this book up and their story has stayed with me long after the final word was read.
Pax needs a fake girlfriend to save himself from the new owners daughter and the first name that comes into his head is his teammates sister Kylie but she should be off limits for many reasons and that should make fake dating safe..right…wrong….because what starts off as fake soon becomes so much more. I loved everything about this book, I fell hard and fast for Pax, I adored Kylie but what took this book to another level was the relationship Pax built with Kylie’s daughter. Wonderful read that ticked all my boxes .
So darn good
Pax is book three in the latest series from Brenda Rothert and what a fabulous addition to the series it was. This is Pax Bishop and Kylie Thomas’s story and what a story it was. I adore Pax, in fact he is my favourite of the series so far.
I fell hard and fast for these two and had a hard time putting this book down when real life got in the way. The writing was strong with characters that were engaging, easy to relate to and even easier to fall for.
Pax is a successful player with a serious problem as the daughter of the team’s new owner is determined to have him. However Pax is not interested, he has had feelings for Kylie, his teammate’s sister for a while but has not acted on it. Desperate to avoid the owner’s daughter, he tells the spoiled woman that he already has a girlfriend, Kylie.
When Kylie’s husband passes away, after being in a coma for years , she is a little lost. Sure she has had years to come to terms with the reality of her husband being in a coma but it is still a shock when he dies. Upon learning of Pax’s predicament, Kylie agrees to pretend to be his girlfriend.
We all know what can happen and this is no exception for Pax and Kylie. As they get to know one another, lines are crossed. I loved the journey these two embarked on, it was emotional, sweet and romantic.
