BORROWED LOVE ON ICE
BORROWED LOVE ON ICE
“Fake dating was supposed to be easy... until it got personal. Xavier Kesh is hockey's golden boy-lightning-fast on the ice, dangerously charming off it, and the face of England's next sports dynasty. With a billionaire legacy behind him and championship medals in front, he's got the world at his feet and his girlfriend, Katrina Brown, right beside him. But when Melissa Brown-Katrina's younger sister, runway model, and fellow hockey teammateenters a fake relationship with Xavier to boost her modeling career, the game changes. What starts as a publicity stunt for a brand deal spirals into a chemistry neither of them can ignore. Melissa's only goal was to win the Miss England crown and finally prove she's more than just a pretty face in a hockey jersey. But faking it with Xavier feels all too real, and soon she's playing a dangerous game: chasing her dreams while falling for the one man she should never touch. When Katrina discovers the truth, heartbreak turns to fury. The sister who always put family first becomes the one set on revenge, determined to make them both pay-for the betrayal, the lies, and the love that was never meant to be. Now, three hearts are on the line. One fake relationship. One crown. And one mistake that could cost them everything.”
