The Mates

New York's favorite hockey player and bar brawler, Riley Huntington, needs a PR fix—stat—or he'll be kicked off the team for good.

Enter Liora James, an ex-Olympic figure skater with dreams as big as her heart and a past so dark it might break it. Desperate to right her wrongs, Liora pins her hopes high on a new TV show called "Grace on Ice," where figure skaters team up with celebrities in hopes of winning a million dollars. But to even stand a chance, she needs more than skill on the ice—she needs publicity.

When their managers pair Liora and Riley together to make their goals come true, a fake relationship is their only way out. But with intense sparks flying between them, Liora's past catching up, and Riley's image on the line, can they keep their cool, or will they risk losing everything they've ever wanted?
