Publisher Description
New York Times bestseller! A new standalone novel from international bestselling 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.

Really good !
Again it is a hit with me ! Love the humour in all of Elle’s book! So much fun !
Jake & Brenna
Enjoyed the chemistry between the two - it was great to see how sweet Jake really was with Brenna, something that he usually hid from everyone else. Brenna’s character was empowering in the fact that she knew what she wanted and went for it, no apologies. She’s fierce and bold and unapologetic. Jake’s character was also well written and he pursued Brenna even though he was captain of the Harvard team and Brenna’s dad coached Briar’s team. He has an easy confidence about him, a surety of who he is and what he wants. I felt like the only downfall was there was such a build up towards Jake’s future with the Oilers and then in the epilogue nothing was mentioned about him going pro at all or how things were with Brenna.
I died of laughter
This book was honestly phenomenal. I could not put the book down it was that good. The humour of almost all the characters were too perfect and I laughed every time. The plot was amazing and this whole series is just so fun to read! Ready to spend all my money on this author!
