Axe-Identally Married

I used to be a good girl.

That is until I woke up in Vegas married to a former hockey player who also happens to be my best friend's ex.

Cole Hebert and I are opposites. I'm the new town doctor, a rule follower, and five-five on a good day. He's the six-seven bad boy currently doing court-ordered community service.

I'm struggling to earn the respect of the people in our hometown, and he's doing some soul searching after an injury ended his hockey career. We've already drunkenly said I do, so we agree to a marriage of convenience.

Forced to live together, we slowly become friends. I see a side of Cole I never knew existed. He coaches kids' hockey, knits for the entire town, and loves snuggling while watching Jeopardy.

Soon, we're growing closer, and the way the hockey-playing lumberjack worships my plus-size body and obsessively calls me his wifey has me embracing my inner bad girl and tearing down all my carefully constructed walls.

Our feelings eventually burn as bright as our passion, but the small town we both love is harboring dark secrets. After a shocking discovery, we learn there are those who want us silenced forever, and we're forced to risk it all to protect our happily ever after.

Author's Note: Axe-identally Married is a marriage of convenience romance featuring a sassy plus-size doctor and a cinnamon roll hockey player with a heart of gold. If you enjoy opposites attract, flirty banter, possessive heroes, wood-chopping, meddling moose, and small-town hijinks, you will not be disappointed.
