My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Ollie's family believe he can’t be happy if he's not out to the world. He has a bitter ex-boyfriend and an unstable NHL career to show for it. A fake boyfriend seems like an easy and quick solution to get my family off my back, and this guy is volunteering. He takes him up on it without asking his name. Lennon doesn’t recognize Ollie Strömberg right away. He covers football, not hockey. They are not supposed to see each other again he’s never supposed to find out Lennon's a reporter. That all changes when his editor reassigns him. Nothing’s changed since high school. Jocks still hate nerds. But even worse, athletes hate journalists. Especially ones who know their secret.
I enjoyed this story as Ollie struggled with hiding his sexuality and the impact of revealing it plus his attraction to Lennon who was "the enemy". I loved Ollie's family and their reactions when Lennon pointed out a few home truths to them. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.
