Will this fake date become their first—and forever—win?

Duffy loves three things: her dad, her cat, and Minneapolis Coyotes football. So she’s devastated to become public enemy number one after shoving the team’s mascot away for getting too flirty.

To clear her name, Duffy agrees to a live interview – only to discover she is sharing the screen with star player, Connor Cunningham. . .

Connor thought he was coming on TV to read a statement, not argue with a fan. But when their fiery banter leaves viewers obsessed, Connor’s PR team spots an opportunity, and encourages Conor to ask Duffy out. The catch? She can’t know it’s not the real deal.

Different kinds of sparks soon fly between them. But Connor can’t keep his secret forever. And if he drops the ball this time, he’ll have lost more than just a game. . .

Lynn Painter lives with her husband and pack of wild children in Nebraska, where she is a weekly contributor to the Omaha World-Herald and an avid fan of napping. When working on a new book, she can often be found sound asleep on her office floor. Some might say she should grow up and stop randomly dozing off like she's a toddler, but Lynn considers it part of her writing process.
