The Game

FROM EXCITING ROMANCE AUTHOR A.B. WILSON

Book two in The Shellenberg Brothers series

He's everything she hates, but exactly what she needs. What will it take to turn two rival players into teammates?

Recover. That's Abby's entire plan when she suffers a potentially career-ending injury. But she needs financial support for her rehab now that she's been dropped by her pro-soccer team.

Enter Matti, her unlikely, tatted up savior with a man bun. The guy with everything she wants, a stellar career and the ability to get away with anything. When Matti's dropped by his team after yet another off-pitch scandal, he needs someone to help rehab his reputation.

After a gossip column goes viral with a piece about their supposed engagement, the plan falls into place. A fake engagement to save Matti's career, and access to the best rehab center for her. A new city, no friends, the only person they have to rely on is each other, and Abby's grumpy cat of course.

As they play pretend day in and day out, their feelings start to shift from those of uncomfortable teammates to something a lot like love as the two find out each other's deepest secrets. But when a new opportunity for Matti comes knocking, ready to pull them apart, will they take the risk of admitting the truth behind their feelings?
