Powerplay: Fake Fiancée Hockey Romance (Mavericks Hockey)

MAEVE
Sergei Petrov is sex on legs; thick, muscular, hockey player legs.

He’s also a wealthy Russian flirt who can make women swoon in multiple languages.

The man strolled into my life the way he walks into every room he enters.

Like he belongs there. Like he owns it.

When I find myself in trouble, he uses his influence to save me from disaster. In return, I’m supposed to convince his posh family that we’re engaged. I told him there’s no way anyone would believe that we’re together.

Of course, he doesn’t listen to me. His enormous ego gets in the way of his hearing, after all.

The bigger problem is, the more time we spend together, the more I realize his ego isn’t the only huge thing about him.

I meant his heart, guys!

(Although, yeah, that too.)

SERGEI
Maeve MacElroy is a badass auto mechanic with a mouth that haunts my dreams.

She also has a sharp tongue impressively fluent in sarcasm.

The woman walks into a room and it’s like I’m watching an IMAX movie. She fills my vision. All I want to do is reach out and touch her.

Like she belongs with me. Like she’s mine.

When my family harasses me about settling down, I convince Maeve to fake our engagement. She’s terrible at it, to be honest.

But she’s incredible at everything else. She has a kind heart, a fascinating mind, and a remarkable spirit.

Unfortunately, the more she learns of my reckless past, the less she believes in our future.

If only she used her pretty mouth for something other than denial.

I meant admitting she loves me!

(Although, yeah, that too.)
