Rough Score: A Marriage of Convenience Hockey Romance (The Hawkeyes Hockey Series Book 4)

A marriage-of-convenience, green-card, fake-marriage hockey romance — all the banter, all the heat, all the feelings nobody signed up for, and a guaranteed HEA. Book four of The Hawkeyes Hockey Series.

Here's what they don't tell you about being the Hawkeyes' captain: none of it matters if your visa expires.

I'm Canadian. My paperwork's a disaster. And if I don't fix it fast, I get deported — which means losing my spot on the best team in the NHL. There's exactly one solution, and I hate every part of it.

Get married.

Then I catch a gorgeous, in-over-her-head party planner before she face-plants in the Hawkeyes' parking lot — and just like that, I think I've found my wife.

Juliet is smart, sharp, sexy as hell, and she's got her own reasons for saying yes to a stranger's insane proposal. Which is perfect. It's a business deal. A signature, a shared address, a year of pretending — no feelings, no complications, no problem.

Except the chemistry we're faking for the cameras stopped feeling fake somewhere around the honeymoon we never planned to have.

And now this whole arrangement is starting to feel a lot more like a rom-com than a contract…

So the only question left is whether I can keep my head in the game — or whether falling for my own wife is about to be the roughest play I've ever made.
