When a dare from your sorority sisters forces you to seduce the campus's hottest hockey player, the last thing you expect is for him to actually help you pull it off—but Conor Edwards surprises you by agreeing to a fake-dating scheme that's supposed to fool your frenemies and boost your social standing. What starts as a fun game quickly becomes complicated when you realize there's so much more beneath his charming, carefree exterior, and your pretend feelings start feeling dangerously real. As the line between performance and authenticity blurs, you're faced with a choice: keep playing it safe or risk everything by letting someone actually see you. This is a heartwarming story about finding confidence in yourself and discovering that the person who makes you laugh might just be the one who gets you.
