Dangerous Play

Asking your ex-boyfriend's rival to fake date you should have been easy.
But things get complicated when real sparks start flying in totally fake scenarios.

When my soccer captain ex dumped me for my younger sister my whole life shattered. What better way to get back at him than dating his rival? Okay... fake dating him.
But the problem with Maximilan Aarons was that he wasn't at all what I expected him to be. As I got to know him during our romantic dates and he showed me what a real boyfriend should look like, I broke my one and only rule.
I started falling for him.
Somewhere between all the dates and kisses I forgot that this was a mutually beneficial fake relationship and he had his own agenda.
One that didn't include me, just his soccer career.

Rival soccer team's captain? Check.
Cocky playboy reputation? Check.
Smile that has all the girl falling at his feet? Double check.
