Miami Sports

The time I picked up an NBA superstar while looking like a swamp thing in a hair salon... You see, I'm starting a new job on Monday at a sports TV network, and I was treating myself to a way too expensive cut at one of Miami's chicest hair salons in preparation when he walked in. By he, I mean, a tall, inked, European, and breathtakingly hot NBA superstar named Antoni Nowak. And Antoni happens to be interested in me, despite seeing me in that awful salon lighting, with wet hair, and draped in a smock. Me. I refuse to believe him at first. Antoni isn't deterred. Rather, he's even more intrigued when I fly my weird flag at full staff. But when I go viral due to a most humiliating situation, I wonder how long it will be until Antoni realizes this is who I truly am and the novelty of dating me wears off. Add in a coworker who feels I'm not just unworthy of a man like Antoni, but also an embarrassment to the network, and I suddenly find myself questioning my career, too. If this were a game of basketball, I'm about to make a pressured shot from the three-point line to win the game. Or will I find confidence in myself to sink the winning shot and keep not only Antoni but my job?

I had high hopes for big sales at the holiday craft show . . . but I never dreamed my biggest transaction would be an offer to fake date a professional hockey player . . . Welcome to Miami, where the sun is hot, and the ice is even hotter. Beckham Bailey is known as a partying hockey player, and he's in desperate need of an image overhaul off the ice. I'm Georgie Goodwin, and I hand-paint Mason Jars for a living. But with December approaching and my funds running low, it seems as if Georgie's Jars might have to go under. But when Beckham's sister discovers me at a holiday craft show, she sees the perfect opportunity to give her brother a new image by faking a relationship with me, the sunshine girl who loves Christmas. In return, I will get exposure for Georgie's Jars and some cash to keep my dream alive. As we spend time together, I start to see the layers behind Beckham's grumpy exterior and find myself falling for him. But can our fake relationship survive the truth of our feelings? If you love swoony romance, laugh out loud moments, and characters you can't help but root for, then Miami Ice is the book for you.
