The best way to get back at my horrible ex? Fake date Rory Miller--my ex's rival, the top scorer in pro hockey, and the arrogant, flirtatious hockey player I tutored in high school.

Faking it is fun and addictive, though, and beneath the bad boy swagger, Rory’s sweet, funny, and protective.

He teaches me to skate and spends way too much money on me.

He sleeps in my bed and convinces me to break my just-one-time hookup rule.

He kisses me like it’s real.

And now I wonder if Rory was ever faking it to begin with.

The Fake Out is a pro hockey fake dating romance. It is the second book in the Vancouver Storm series but can be read as a standalone.

liked the characters better than BTN but honestly felt like i was reading the exact same story with a toxic ex, highschool crush, and parental issues.

So much better than the last one. Hazel did make me frown with her negativity but i like how she came through. Loved that there was no third act break up. Hazel and Rory had more connection and conversation than jamie and pippa
