One day Lucy Knox is traveling across the country to escape her old life, and the next she's fake dating Kellen Bassey, her brother's pro hockey teammate. The couple is being gleefully managed by a committee of his teammates and her friends who vote on every move of "Kellcy". But it's the perfect way to show her ex-and her father-that she's better off without them.

Single dad Kellen is determined to keep his spot on the Blizzard NHL team so he can stay near his daughter's doctors. But when the team owner's wife sets her sights on Kellen, he needs to deflect her attention.

As their fake dating scheme intertwines their lives-complete with Lucy coaching Kellen's daughter's kindergarten soccer team-the line between pretend and real starts to blur. Should Lucy follow her dream job to England, or risk her heart again in Colorado? And can Kellen trust himself to let someone in, or will their love be benched before it gets a chance to play?
