After a fun and flirty weekend, sparks fly, but there's trouble off the ice because she's not the trophy my billionaire father has in mind for me. Ella: When he suggests we level up our fake relationship to a fake engagement, I don't have anything to lose except my sense of reality as I'm swept into his wealthy world—and my grip on my emotions because this is starting to feel real. Jack: Before we met, my life was mapped out, but she changed the game. Some argue it's for the worst. But I've never felt—or played—better. Before, retirement from the league loomed. Now I have a new goal and it's a future with her.Zum Buch
