Hazel Hartley has a very good reason for avoiding hockey players. She's a physiotherapist for the Vancouver Storm, which means she's surrounded by professional athletes every day. The last thing she needs is for her horrible ex to join the team and make her work life even more complicated.

Then there's Rory Miller.

Rory is the Vancouver Storm's new captain and one of the top scorers in professional hockey. He's confident, flirtatious, arrogant, and completely comfortable with the attention that comes with being a star athlete. He's also someone Hazel knows from years ago, when she tutored him in high school.

When Hazel's ex becomes part of the team, she decides that the best way to get revenge is to make him jealous. Rory has his own reason for agreeing to the arrangement. A fake relationship could help improve his public image while giving Hazel the perfect opportunity to show her ex that she's moved on.

So they make a deal.

They'll pretend to be together.

What could possibly go wrong?

At first, the arrangement seems almost too easy. Hazel and Rory have plenty of chemistry, and their fake relationship gives them an excuse to spend more time together. But Rory's confident hockey-player persona begins to crack as Hazel discovers the sweeter, funnier, and more protective man underneath.

Rory starts doing things that feel a little too real for a fake boyfriend. He teaches Hazel how to skate, spends far too much money on her, shares his secrets, and eventually finds himself sleeping in her bed. The boundaries between pretending and actually being together become increasingly difficult to maintain.

For Hazel, trusting a hockey player is already difficult. Her past relationship has given her plenty of reasons to keep her guard up, and she isn't interested in getting hurt again. But Rory continues to show her a side of himself that she never expected to see.

And then he kisses her like he means it.

Suddenly, Hazel has a much bigger problem than her ex.

She has to figure out whether Rory is still playing a role or whether the feelings between them have become completely real.

The Fake Out is the second book in Stephanie Archer's Vancouver Storm series, following Behind the Net, but it can be read as a standalone romance. The story combines professional hockey, fake dating, an ex's rival, forced proximity, and a devoted "golden retriever" hero with plenty of humor and spice.

With its playful banter, steamy romance, emotional vulnerability, and larger-than-life hockey setting, The Fake Out is a fun choice for readers who love romances where a relationship starts as an act but becomes impossible to fake.
