Publisher's Summary

Fake.

Being the heir to Jacobs Enterprises, I’ve been around fake people my entire life. I promised myself a long time ago that I wouldn’t change for anyone. Which is the only reason I’m a professional hockey player who lives on the beach and does as he pleases without answering to anyone - except my father.

And now, my daughter.

Being a single dad wasn’t in the plan but after a one-night stand who took off after the baby was born, this is my reality.

My dad’s been harping on me to quit hockey and join the company for years and now that I’m a father, he’s only intensified his efforts. Until he makes me a deal I can’t refuse.

Insert Lena Boyd, the Jacobs’ family PR rep. She’s beautiful and intelligent and not at all the woman for me - ask anyone. My dad needs us to act happily engaged and sell the idea that we’re in love. If we’re successful I won’t have to join the family legacy - ever. Of course, I agree.

That’s when things get complicated. I thought I had her all figured out until I found out there was more underneath her judgmental sneers and eye rolls. It feels like everything is coming together for the future I really want - with Lena - until my past ruins everything.

Great Story!

Loved the book , however, I did not like the female narrators attempt at sounding like a man. It was so irritating I almost did not finish the book but enjoyed the story so much I tolerated it.

Faking It with #41

I can't get enough of this series and I couldn't wait to listen to Ford's story.

A hot hockeyplayer AND single dad??? Yummy
And you just knew from before that he is that kind of guy who needs a strong woman by his side.
Of course that's Lena. Their lovestory has enough ups and downs, but they find their way.

My fvourite so far

This is the third book in the latest series from Piper Rayne. Faking It With #41 was a fabulous addition to Piper Rayne’s latest series. I love stories with single dads and that is what hockey player for Florida Fury Ford Jacobs now is . His father is persistent in trying to get Ford to retire and join the family business, which is where Lena Boyd, the Jacobs’ family PR representative comes into the equation.
When his father requests he pretend to be engaged to Lena in exchange for no longer being pushed to join the family business, Ford jumps at the chance. Of course the best laid plans often go astray and things quickly become complicated between Ford and Lena.
What happens when Ford’s past comes back and throws a spanner into the relationship that he is building with Lena? I really liked Ford and I knew that there was more to him than what he let show? However I didn't realize how much more there really was and I quickly fell for him.
I love Teddy Hamilton and Erin Mallon's narration. They did justice to the story and brought the characters to life for me.
All he really wants to do is be the best dad he can be to baby Annabelle and my heart melted whenever he was with her.
I loved this story and cannot wait to see what Piper Rayne has in store for this addictive series.

Great addition to the series

I devoured Ford and Lena‘s story. I knew these two would eventually get together and I am so glad we didn't have to wait to long to get their story because they needed to be together ASAP!

Ford is a bit of a playboy he enjoys his time with the ladies and doesn't mind hooking up for a night...or two, but never did anyone see him settling down especially with Lena, his fathers Public Relations Rep, the one that is always tasked with keeping him in line. But if you have read the first couple of books in this series you knew it was inevitable that they would be together...how could they not be with that much chemistry between them. But what I never saw coming was that his dad would be the one to push them together, yes you read that right.

There's a fine line between love and hate actually sometimes I believe they are on the same side of the coin especially when it comes to couples like Ford and Lena, because the only thing that burns brighter than their dislike is their desire for one another.

Ford has been raising his daughter, Annabelle, on his own since her mother walked out on her. Your heart is going to melt when you see how he is with this precious little girl.

I listened to the audiobook version of this book and really enjoyed it, Teddy Hamilton and, Erin Mallon did a fabulous job with bringing Ford and Lena's story to life.

I would recommend this book to anyone that enjoys Steamy Hockey Romances, Contemporary Romances, Single Dad Romances, Enemies-to-Lovers Romances, or the Fake Relationship Trope.

Happy Listening!!!
