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.

Love love love
I absolutely love brenna and jakes relationship and it’s build up. I love their sarcasm and the balance of cute moments with serious ones. So well written I just like this relationship so much♥️
Honestly…
I enjoyed The Chase better than this book. I really wanted to see Brenna and Jake’s future toward the end of the book. It was a decent read. Steamy!!
Unrealistic
I found some typos here and there which bothered me but the most frustrating part was the scrabble game. The first word played was BANG, which supposedly landed on a double word score which is impossible because the first word has to go through the center star, and there’s not a double word score slot within four spaces of the star. You’d need a word with five letters to read the double word score.
