Keep Me Closer: A Steamy Enemies-to-Lovers, Fake-Dating, Off-Limits Hockey Romance

KEEP ME CLOSER
He’s the hockey star I swore I’d never fall for. Now I have to convince everyone I already have.
There are plenty of reasons I should stay away from him.
He’s arrogant. Infuriating. Far too good at getting under my skin.
And unfortunately, one of professional hockey’s most irresistible bad boys.
We’ve spent years turning every conversation into a competition, so asking him to pretend to be my boyfriend should be the worst idea I’ve ever had.
It might also be the only one that works.
One carefully staged appearance is supposed to solve my problem. Instead, our fake relationship comes with public dates, lingering touches, shared secrets—and a hockey player who seems far too comfortable acting like I belong to him.
Behind the teasing smile and reckless reputation is a man I never expected to find: fiercely loyal, dangerously protective, and hiding feelings that suddenly make every argument between us look very different.
The problem with pretending to fall for your enemy?
Eventually, neither of you remembers which parts are supposed to be fake.
And when the line between protection and possession begins to blur, walking away from him may be much harder than falling.
KEEP ME CLOSER is a steamy enemies-to-lovers hockey romance filled with fake dating, off-limits attraction, jealous tension, a protective pro athlete, sharp banter, secret pining, and a hard-earned happily ever after.
