Author: Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 10, 2022
The first time I met Max Yearwood was on a blind date.
Max was insanely gorgeous, funny, and our chemistry was off the charts. He also had the biggest dimples I’d ever laid eyes on.
Exactly what I needed after my breakup.
Or so I thought…
Until my real date arrived.
Turned out, Max wasn’t who I was there to meet. He only pretended to be until my real date showed up.
To say I was disappointed would be an understatement.
Before he left, he slipped me a ticket to a hockey game a few blocks away, in case things didn’t work out on my actual date.
I tossed the ticket into my purse and went about trying to enjoy the man I was supposed to meet.
But my real blind date and I had no connection.
So on my way home, I decided to take a chance and stop by the game.
When I arrived, the seat next to me was empty.
Disappointed again, I decided to leave at the end of the period.
Just before the buzzer, one of the teams scored, and the entire arena went crazy.
A player’s face flashed up on the Jumbotron. He was wearing a helmet, but I froze when he smiled.
You guessed it: Dimples.
Apparently, my fake blind date hadn’t invited me to watch hockey with him, he’d invited me to watch him play.
And so began my adventure with Max Yearwood.
He was everything I needed at the time—fun, sexy, up for anything, and only around for a few months since he’d signed with a new team three-thousand miles away.
Max proposed we spend the summer helping me forget my ex. It sounded like a good plan. Things couldn’t get too serious when we had an expiration date. Right?
Though, you know what they say about the best-laid plans.
Max Yearwood is walking past a restaurant when he sees a beautiful woman sitting at the bar. He walks in and up to her and plays the part of blind date… but when the real date shows up – his gig is up. He parts with the invite to join him at the hockey game that night, if it doesn’t work with her actual date.
Georgia is a work-a-holic who is finally giving her a chance to try and experience new things. On a “break” from her fiancé (he wants their relationship to be open), Georgia gives in to a blind date. There seems to be instant chemistry and connection as soon as Adam walks in… only for her to realize that her real date Adam walks in. The real Adam ends up being a dude and Georgia finds herself at the hockey game, with no fake blind date guy, Max, in sight… until the jumbo-Tron flashes the hockey player who just scored the goal.
Max and Georgia’s easy connection leads them to make a plan – enjoy the summer, together, no strings attached. Max is leaving the end of the summer and Georgia still needs to decide what the outcome will be between her and her “fiancé”.
This was a sweet, sexy and smoldering story. The chemistry between Georgia and Max was instant and pure. So what happens at the end of the summer? You’ll have to one-click to find out.
Georgia is finally ready to dip her toe into the dating world after her fiancé told her he wanted to be on a "break." She gets set up on a blind date. Her friend described him as "average" so when a totally hot guy walked into the bar and headed straight toward her, she was floored. This seemed like a GREAT match, that is, until her real date walked in. Turns out Max Yearwood saw her and just had to come in to talk to her. He quickly offers her hockey tickets to be his date if her blind date didn't work out. Needless to say, her date was a dud, and Georgia ends up at the hockey game. She really was annoyed when Max didn't even show up! Until.... she finds out that Max is actually on the team!
They get along great, so they decide to just see how it goes for the summer. After all, Max is leaving soon, and Georgia's "fiancé" should be coming back at the end of summer. But as the summer goes on, their romance gets better. For you to learn more, you'll have to read more, but trust me this book is a sweet burn that you don't want to miss.
