War

A fake marriage between enemies leads to a love--and family--worth fighting for in this romance from the NYT-bestselling author of Bonfire & Bliss Bookstore.

Despite being known as a hothead on the ice, tattooed bad boy Tyler "War" Warren has a heart of gold. A dedicated foster parent, all he wants is to become a dad. But with his reputation as the team's enforcer, the Boston Bolts captain is the last person anyone would allow to adopt a child--let alone three of them.

When Ava Erikson, his redheaded nemesis, unexpectedly offers to help make his dreams a reality, War finds himself saying "I do." Ava runs the biggest charity in Boston, and she's sure to sway the court in his favor. She also just so happens to be the kids' favorite person. Marrying her should be a convenient solution to War's problems, but there's nothing convenient about their situation.

Ava knows exactly how to push War's buttons, and he can't help ratcheting up the tension until neither knows whether to throw down or lock lips. Their marriage may be a sham, but their newfound family suddenly seems very real. Now, as old wounds reopen and a bitter ex attempts to sabotage everything they've built, War and Ava must decide if they're going to forfeit the game . . . or play for keeps.

War is a spicy enemies-to-lovers, forced-proximity hockey romance featuring a marriage of convenience.
