One year. Hundreds of messages. One devastating lie.

You spent years being Chase Bennett’s fat and insecure best friend before becoming his secret girlfriend. When he left for a year-long hockey season overseas, you promised to wait.

And you did.

For twelve months, you shared everything through text messages. Your insecurities, your dreams, your weight-loss journey, your favorite songs, your late-night thoughts, and the little things that made you smile.

You thought he was falling more deeply in love with you.

But when the Blackwater Wolves return home, Chase doesn’t even recognize you at the airport.

Worse, a beautiful brunette runs into his arms and kisses him in front of everyone.

She’s his girlfriend. His real girlfriend.

And she knows exactly who you are.

Now there’s only one question.

If Chase wasn’t the man you’ve been talking to for the past year... who was?

Somewhere among the Blackwater Wolves is a man who knows your favorite flower, your greatest fear, and what you sound like when you’re trying not to cry.

A man who has fallen completely, dangerously in love with you.

And he’s terrified of what will happen when you discover the truth.
