Rival Darling

A wholesome YA ice-hockey rom-com, first in the Darling Devils series. When Violet is publicly dumped by the captain of her school's hockey team, she swears off jocks for good—then does the one thing guaranteed to get her ex's attention: fake-dating his fiercest rival, Reed Darling, the notorious bad-boy captain of the Ransom Devils. Reed has a reputation as a ruthless heartbreaker, but the more time Violet spends with him, the more she suspects the gossip has him all wrong—and Reed, falling first, is determined to prove it. Fake dating, a guaranteed happily-ever-after, and no cliffhanger.
