Faking it
by Beth Reekles
"Lifelong singleton Sophie is facing a year of events celebrating her friends and family settling down: bachelorette and engagement parties, weddings, and baby showers. And despite a string of failed dates behind her-everything from "it's not you, it's me" to only seeing each other when it suits him to total ghosting-she just can't seem to stay away from dating apps and hopes to find love just like everyone else. But when she lies about having a plus-one for her sister's wedding, Sophie's only solution is to enlist a fake boyfriend. Enter the sexy and charming Harry. He agrees to help her save face in front of her family, if she'll help him look good to his friends after the recent implosion of his marriage. Their chemistry is undeniable, but even if Sophie has sparks with Harry, they're both just using their fake relationship to hide from their own problems. Can she continue lying to her family and friends? And how will everyone react when they see themselves reflected in her column? Soul-searching comes with consequences, and there might not be a picture-perfect "happily ever after," but maybe there's something even better"

Pucking around
by Emily Rath
"My name is Rachel Price, and two months ago I walked away from The Perfect Man-sweet, funny, and so sexy he should be illegal. We shared one magical night. No names. No strings. I never thought I'd see him again. I was wrong. As it turns out, Mr. Perfect is the playboy grinder for the Jacksonville Rays, the NHL's hottest new hockey team . . . and thanks to the ten-month fellowship I just landed, I'm his new physical therapist. Imagine my anticipation as those familiar muscled legs walk towards me, the way my pulse races as he reaches out to . . . shake my hand. The jerk doesn't even recognize me! This is going to be the longest ten months of my life. Because now Mr. Perfect Mistake is determined to use his every seductive trick to win me back. Meanwhile, I also have to contend with his best friend the surly team equipment manager, and an exasperatingly stubborn, superstitious goalie who's convinced I'm his good luck charm. This is my chance to prove myself, and I'm not risking it for anything. But between one unexpected night, and one secret revealed, these men are ready to test all my limits. Still, I can't fall for a player-let alone three. Or can I?"
