Once one of Europe’s top sports-medicine surgeons, Evelyn had it all—until she was framed for a medical error she didn’t commit. Forced to disappear, she takes a low-profile job as a medical assistant for a professional hockey team. Then an unexpected kiss with hockey superstar Jace lands her in the middle of a public scandal. To save her grandmother’s physical rehabilitation clinic, Evelyn agrees to a secret, two-month marriage with him.
But married life is anything but simple. Her stepsister Chloe steals her identity and humiliates her at every turn, while Evelyn’s own father treats her as a pawn in his schemes. Through it all, Jace stands by her side, and their marriage of convenience begins to feel all too real.
When Jace suffers a devastating injury on the ice and is left fighting for his life, Evelyn risks everything to save him. Her extraordinary surgical skills expose the brilliant doctor she’s been hiding. As the truth behind the medical scandal finally comes to light, Evelyn clears her name and reclaims her career and dignity.
Then Jace reveals a secret that changes everything: he’s been searching for her for fifteen years. What began as a marriage of convenience turns out to be a long-awaited reunion fifteen years in the making.
