A sweet friends-to-lovers hockey romance with fake dating sparks, matchmaking mischief, and a promise that could change everything...
Scarlett
I launch myself at Steven—my childhood best friend and new next-door neighbor—and kiss him.
My heart races like that night we swore to forget.
“Pretend you’re my boyfriend,” I whisper, desperate to ditch a guy who won’t quit.
His arms wrap around me, and our fake relationship reignites feelings I’ve buried.
Living next door again, with him playing for the Wolverines, makes pretending risky.
I promised his dad I’d find Steven his perfect match—a vow I’ll keep, even if it costs me him forever.
Steven
Scarlett’s kiss hits like a body check, stirring feelings I’ve ignored since that night.
I’m back home, next door, and a Wolverine.
I’m not here for games—except on the ice and apparently this fake relationship.
She keeps playing matchmaker, blind to the fact my heart’s always been hers.
I reject every setup, hoping she’ll see she’s the one.
Can I break through her walls before her promise pushes me away for good?
Perfect for fans of clean sports romance, friends-to-lovers sweetness, fake dating fun, and heartwarming hockey rom-coms with all the sizzle and no spice.
Dive into this kisses-only, slow-burn standalone with next-door neighbor vibes, matchmaking chaos, mutual crushes, and a swoony happily ever after!
