How to Tame Your Rival
A wrong sip binds an artist and a hockey star in a fake romance neither can escape.

- campus
- fake dating
- rivals to lovers
Evelyn never expected a random beverage swap to rewrite her life, but swallowing the spiked soda intended for the arrogant hockey player Julian drops her straight into a binding wager that demands a convincing couple act. Public dates, staged kisses, and nonstop togetherness chip away at the emotional armor she spent two years constructing after deciding her crush was ancient history. Every rehearsed touch drags the buried attraction back into the light, turning the contract into a minefield where the biggest risk isn't losing the bet — it's losing her heart all over again.
