Description
My name is Teddy O’Connor, and I just made a terrible mistake. It’s been six years since I was an intern for the Jacksonville Rays NHL team. Six years since I wrapped ice packs on knees and played Mario Kart on chartered planes. And six long years since I first met him. Henrik Karlsson, star forward of the Rays . . . and king of my heart.
Oh god, I’ve got to get over this crush! I’m a doctor now, a respected professional. And Henrik doesn’t even know I exist. So you tell me why I’m risking everything to follow this man halfway around the world!
After receiving news of his sister’s tragic death, Henrik must fly to Sweden to retrieve his injured, grieving young niece. But with a new hockey season about to start, Henrik can’t possibly care for her alone. In fact, the Swedish government won’t let him. He needs me. They both do. I’d be heartless not to help—right?
Well, that’s what I told myself last week as I signed our Swedish marriage license. It’s what I told myself yesterday as I moved into his apartment. And it’s what I’m telling myself now as the Rays PR Director stares us down. They want this marriage to look real. The team’s public image, our jobs, and Henrik’s custody agreement all depend on it.
But my problem isn’t that I don’t love my fake husband. God help me, my problem is that I do.

Hands down, my favourite book in the series. The "slow burn" didn't even feel like a slow burn. The characters, the plot. I love it all. My heart was reaching out to all of them, especially to one of the characters (even though I wish there was more of her than what has already been written). I wish I could go back in time and re-read this book all over again.
I loved this one. Teddy and Hendrick were just so cute together and really complemented each others personalities while being very different people. I haven’t read marriage of convenience in this way before and I really enjoyed it.
I enjoyed this book but I did realize that my limit for reading about gay sex in depth is around 2 scenes and this book had around 6 or 7. I did like the chemistry between them and the aspect of representation of demisexuality.
