The Publicity Pact (ICEBOUND ILLUSIONS #1)

Elara Vance is a trainwreck. At least, that’s what the headlines are screaming after her spectacularly messy, public breakup with Hollywood’s Golden Boy.

Her reputation is in tatters, her indie-rock career is stalling, and the paparazzi are vultures waiting for her to finally snap.

She needs a miracle to get her fans back—and she needs it before her label pulls the plug on her European tour.

Julian Thorne is a liability. The massive, brutally handsome captain of the Portland Pioneers has one final strike.

After a brawling late-night altercation that sent a man through a window, Julian is on probation.

Corporate sponsors are fleeing, and management is threatening to strip the ‘C’ from his jersey.

He needs to look settled, mature, and entirely grounded—the exact opposite of his current bad-boy image.

The Publicity Pact is simple. Six months. Staged dates. Stolen glances for the cameras.
