Summary

Shy and reserved, good girl Ellie McDonald is determined to break out of her shell—and her relationship rut. First order of business, woman up and finally ask her longtime secret crush, Jake Armstrong, on an old-fashioned date. She's not at all his type—which is great. Once Jake turns her down she can finally move on. Except he says yes . . .

MVP short-stop Jake Armstrong has tried to keep his bad boy nature under wraps. But there's nothing he likes more than tempting sweet Ellie to the dark side. No one need know.

But when the hotel catches fire and their rescue—while nearly naked—is caught on camera, the two have a PR problem. Jake's solution is a fake relationship, just for the season. Only for Ellie, there's nothing fake about it . . .

Contains mature themes.
