A sports rom-com with heart and heat, this novel follows Ari Shumba, a women’s hockey player unexpectedly thrust into leading her team at the Winter Games. When her path collides with Drew Dlamini, a photographer trying to reset his life, the two enter a fake-dating scheme during a snowy international competition. As they juggle over-involved families, exes, and high-stakes sport tensions, sparks — and real feelings — flare in unlikely places.
