She's living a lie. He knows the truth. And he's using it. Riley Hayes isn't supposed to be here. She's a girl pretending to be her twin brother, playing on one of the most competitive hockey teams in the country. One slip. One wrong move. And everything falls apart. Zavi is the team captain. Her roommate. Her nightmare. He knows her secret, and he won't let her forget it. His ex won't leave him alone. His solution? Riley. A fake girlfriend to get her off his back. Simple. If she plays along, he keeps his mouth shut. But nothing about Zavi is simple. He's cold, arrogant, and infuriating. Every staged kiss feels too real. Every touch lingers too long. She's supposed to hate him. Instead, she's falling for the one person who can destroy her.

PART ONE: Emery & Dominic He wanted to learn how to cook. He got a Dom instead. Emery has never boiled water without setting something on fire. After a week of food poisoning, his doctor tells him to download a recipe app. He answers every question honestly: Open minded. Willing to try almost anything. Someone patient enough to guide me through everything. Dominic Whitmoore, chef, Dom, and a man who never plays fair, reads every word and swipes right. Emery shows up at his door with a bag of brand-new pots and a nervous smile. Dominic expects a trembling, willing sub. He gets a twenty-year-old virgin who thinks he's here for knife skills. "What did you think the kink app was for?" It should end there. Instead, Dominic's hands cover his on the knife, his hard chest presses against his back, and a rule is whispered against his ear: Don't touch yourself until you've decided. Strict. Possessive. Patient. Dominic has one lesson left to teach him: how good it feels to say yes, please. PART TWO: Cameron & Ethan Cameron doesn't do serious. Ethan doesn't do nice. Cameron is Dominic's best friend, a hockey player who treats the app like a buffet and every match like a dare. Ethan is a first-year with heavy eyeliner, a flat voice, and no filter. He read the terms and conditions, he knows exactly what he signed up for, and he has no intention of being gentle about it. One match. One meeting neither of them planned. One game of who breaks first. Fifty-fifty, a god or a serial killer. Either way, he's trouble.
