Synopsis

When Maddie Grainger’s longtime boyfriend dumps her on TV for the entire world to see, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom. Until her parents announce that they’re spending the holidays with her ex’s family…and he’ll be bringing the woman he left her for. All Maddie wants for Christmas is to stick it to her cheating ex. But how? Enter Sebastian Slater, the NHL’s most infamous player. On a drunken night out in Vegas, Maddie asks the superstar athlete to pose as her new boyfriend. She’s kidding, mostly. But Seb shocks her by making a counter offer: he doesn’t want to date Maddie for the holidays…he wants to marry her. Show up at her ex’s cabin alone or with a surprise new hockey-playing husband? Maddie opts for the ultimate level-up. Because maybe, just maybe, revenge is a dish best served betrothed. Sparks fly and Christmas cheer is abundant in this festive marriage-of-convenience romcom. Season’s Schemings is a closed-door/fade-to-black romance that includes mild language, innuendo, and tons of sizzle without the spice.

Reviews

SO GOOD. I don't know if it's just me, but this felt a bit different (in a good way) than what I've read from Katie Bailey in the past. This was more, I don't know, mature and sexy? The humour felt natural, and though it's a completely closed-door romance, the flirty banter and spicy kisses delivere......more

5/5 Мені дуже сподобалося. Весела, мила, легенька історія з класними героями, які вміють говорити і слухати один одного. Себастьян - хокеїст, якому необхідна віза, щоб залишитися в країні і продовжити свій контракт з командою. Медді дієтолог команди, яку ганебно покинув хлопець. На п'яну голову, вони......more

I’m sappy and I’m happy about it. This was a marriage or convince. Closed door, no smut. About the holiday, family, hockey, and baking. The mother was a mess. The brother was the best. The ending was a bit rushed. “Voodoo cookies for anyone who upsets my wife.” ——————— I need some fluff, and this is short,......more
