Summary
He's a professional hockey player that lives on the edge. I prefer to play life by the rules.
I'm the personal assistant at a sports agency that no one notices. I don't like sports, and I like professional athletes even less. I'm indifferent to the mostly male clientele, except for one. Mica "the savage" Petrov.
When it comes to wild antics, Mica is the biggest offender of them all. He's reckless, wild, and carelessly charming. I'm mortified that I find him attractive. But it doesn't matter because the guy hasn't taken a second look at me. Not once. In two years.
Mica's career-jeopardizing situation requires drastic measures to be taken to keep him in the game. He's got money, I've got debt, and my boss has a crazy idea. Which is how I found myself stepping up to save him from himself. But at what cost?
How long can I keep fighting my attraction? What ghosts from his past is he brawling with? All I know is that I need to defend my heart before this big defenseman steals it away. Can we win this game? Or is it too late for either of us?
Contains mature themes.

The marriage‑of‑convenience setup pulls you in fast, but it was the dynamic between Charlie and Mica that really made the book for me. Mica is chaotic, possessive, dramatic, and somehow still incredibly charming at the same time. Charlie balances him out so well; she’s calmer, more grounded, and doesn’t instantly fold under his intensity, which makes their chemistry even hotter.
I also loved watching their relationship shift once they’re forced into close quarters.
The story definitely leans a little dramatic, but it suits the overall vibe and made the whole thing ridiculously bingeable.
A quick content note for anyone who prefers to know beforehand: there are references to death and pregnancy loss, both discussed only in flashbacks. There’s also a scene with very mild somnophilia elements, but it’s handled lightly and didn’t feel extreme to me.
Dual style narration. The accent Alex used took me a moment to get used to, but I still adore him as a narrator.

Tbh, the sex scenes are cringe… with ridiculous things like touching her ‘bud’ etc, … I just fast forward through those parts as they are the most boring parts of the stories.
If you like light but interesting love stories…. You’ll like these! The narrators are good too!
Brilliant!
