The perfect defense against my lying, manipulative ex? Fake date the enforcer for the Riverside U hockey team. It's the least Cade Price can do after I helped him save face when he caught his girlfriend playing tonsil hockey with another guy. Convincing him to be my pretend boyfriend doesn't take much—his cheating ex is already trying to crawl back into his life—and he's desperate to prove he's moved on.

I accidentally hooked up with the captain of the hockey team. In my defense, it was before I landed the social media internship—and learned about the strict no fraternization policy.

I'm forced to work closely with the angry captain and all I can think about is the steamy night we spent together. And how it can't happen again, because if word gets out, it could cost us both everything.

Ruby's always around, and my feelings are hitting harder than a body check on the ice.
