Against the Boards: A slow burn, fake dating, fade-to-black hockey romance (Canadian Played) by Cynthia Gunderson (Amazon Digital Services) (96 Reviews)    Price verified 20 minutes ago

As seen on TikTok! People say opposites attract, but now I have proof. There's zero rationale for why I would fall for Tyler Bowen. I mean, he's the star winger of my brother's hockey team and yet is better known for his moves off the ice. His playboy reputation is a huge red flag. Though that was exactly why I asked him to kiss me. In front of my overprotective brother. As a joke. Oh, did I forget to mention that wanting Tyler was supposed to be a prank? I didn't plan on liking that kiss. I didn't anticipate Tyler's dad finding out, or that he'd offer me the job of a lifetime. I suppose it doesn't matter that we're working together and playing a part for my new employer. Tyler's made it crystal clear he's not into serious relationships, even though the sparks flying from our fake touches might just be intense enough to melt the ice. I don't chase after players, and I'm not about to start now. All I need to do is finish the job and skate free because having Tyler close is enough to make me forget why the two of us could never happen... Against the Boards is a slow-burn, closed-door hockey romcom. Audiobook narrated by the author.
