Macklin Celebrini is an attention-hating, humble hockey player who carries the weight of the future of the NHL on his shoulders. Miley Carter is a billionaire with the weight of her self-made company on her shoulders. A simple brand ambassadorship quickly blurs into a complicated charade, forcing them to cross the line between a carefully staged public relationship and very real, private emotions.

Katy Jameson and Macklin Celebrini were inseparable in college-until the pressure of growing careers and uncertain futures tore them apart. She left for her dream job. He left for the NHL. Neither looked back. Five years later, an unexpected reunion interview brings them face-to-face in front of cameras, audiences, and every unspoken word they thought they'd buried. What begins as a media stunt quickly unravels into something deeper, messier, and painfully real.

Parker Heyes has spent her whole life proving she belongs on the ice. At nineteen, the spunky brunette from Victoria, British Columbia is already making waves with Team Canada and the Toronto Sceptres in the PWHL. She's talented, loud when she's comfortable, terrible at talking about herself in interviews, and somehow always one bad decision away from chaos. Macklin Celebrini is Canada's golden hockey star - focused, disciplined, and already carrying the weight of the entire hockey world on his shoulders. Off the ice, though? He and Parker are practically the same person: competitive, sarcastic, stubborn, and incapable of backing down from an argument. After both Team Canada squads strike gold, Vegas seems like the perfect place to celebrate. One night out turns into too many drinks, terrible ideas, and a wedding neither of them remembers until they wake up wearing matching rings and trending all over social media. An accidental Vegas marriage is bad enough. An accidental Vegas marriage between two nineteen-year-old hockey stars? Career-ending PR nightmare. With both their agents demanding they "fix this" before the media tears them apart, Parker and Macklin are forced into damage control - fake smiles, shared appearances, and pretending their marriage might actually work long enough to avoid a scandal. The only problem? The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to remember this relationship was supposed to be temporary. number 1 in #friends june 3rd 26 Started: may 11th, 2026 Finished: june 14th, 2026 final word count: 102,957

Raised between locker rooms, road trips, and Stanley Cup celebrations, she grew up surrounded by hockey's biggest names. Marc-André Fleury taught her how to skate.
