Fake Dating My Grumpy Iceman: A Sweet Off-Limits Workplace Hockey RomCom.
Rémy Reed
I’m fake dating my best friend’s grumpy brother AND he’s my all-star player.
At first, Dane Hammer could barely tolerate me as his new boss.
Accidentally drenching his lap with scalding coffee before the press conference, didn’t help.
When my backstage clean-up sounded salacious through open mics,
I told the press we’re dating—you know, to help it make sense.
That only made it worse, because now we’re stuck in a fake romance.
This is impossible—he’s off-limits and can’t stand me now.
We force smiles through lying eyes to protect reputations and legacies.
But we look real in photos.
That explains why holding hands at town events feels natural.
And why I warmed a little, when he played nice on team bowling night.
Then Cupid’s arrow struck me while we’re skating on ice in public and he held me close.
I’m cracking under the pressure.
And if the whole truth comes out,
I’ll lose the Outlaws, Dane, and my best friend forever.
