From fake relationship to friends with benefits? No problem. But friends with benefits to true love? No chance. Reese Beresford's life seems perfect. She's a former champion figure skater with an exciting new business and the love of thousands of fans. But that gets turned upside down when a rival from the past makes stunning accusations against Reese. Overnight, she has been canceled. With her life in shambles, she needs to save her image, her business, and her sanity.
Her agent has a plan: shift the focus from Reese's current scandal to a glamorous new romance. Enter Grady Radcliffe, the super-hot pro hockey player who just happens to live next door. He's not looking for a real relationship, but he doesn't mind helping Reese with her reputation rehab. Being seen holding hands and sharing intimate meals? That's not much of a hardship.

As Reese delves into her past, she'll have to confront her present. She can't help the feelings she's having for the sexy hockey player, but giving in means risking her reputation, her business, and the man of her dreams.
Can relationship-shy Reese keep their friends with benefits deal? Or will she lose everything?
