Faking the Shot
Description:
Lights, camera... action?
Ainsley Beckett might be television's sweetheart, star of a dozen romantic movies and known the world over for her sweet-as-pie schoolmarm on hit historical TV show As The Heart Draws. But while she's always found love on-screen, her private life is less of a happily-ever-after. A string of one-date only and showmances has ruined her reputation and convinced her that finding true love is impossible, as no ordinary guy dares look at her, and the celebrity world is full of fakes.
Zac Parotti is used to fame and its flip side, like women (literally) throwing themselves at him, but he's finding his feet as a new Christian, and wants to do things God's way now.
When a chance encounter at a Vancouver party brings these two together they decide a fake relationship might prove the best way to stop the media speculation and fan--and family--pressure. Until fake feelings turn into something deeper. For one of them, at least...
Faking the Shot is a fake-dating Christian romance and the fourth book in the Northwest Ice Christian hockey romance series. It can be read as a standalone, and is perfect for fans of banter-laden romance with hope, heart and humor.
Why the author wrote this book:
Imagine if you were scared for people to know the real you, and you feared that if people learned your secrets you would lose your career and reputation. A friend of mine walked away from faith because of how her brother was treated by the church, so I wanted to write a redemption type story for her and her brother. This book explores what it is to be a Christian dealing with the gritty realities of life, and how to keep following Jesus even when it means you need to risk it all.
