📚 In If You Need Me, Dallas, a pro hockey player, is in love with his childhood crush, Wilhelmina "Hemi" Reddi-Grinst. The problem? She can’t stand him, thanks to a decades-old grudge. But when a drunken mishap leads the world to believe they’re in a serious relationship, they must fake their engagement to protect their jobs and reputations. What starts as a PR stunt could turn into something real—but only if Dallas can prove he’s more than just a former menace.
👨👧 Dallas is the perfect blend of charm and vulnerability. He’s a swoon-worthy hero who goes all-in, no matter what it takes to win Hemi’s heart. Hemi is strong, independent, and doesn't let anyone get the better of her. Her confidence and no-nonsense attitude make her an unforgettable heroine. Together, their chemistry is off the charts, but it’s their emotional journey that really steals the show.
💞 Enemies-to-lovers with a fake engagement twist? Yes, please! Dallas and Hemi’s slow-burn romance is full of laugh-out-loud moments and heartwarming scenes. The tension between them builds in such a satisfying way, as Dallas works to prove he’s more than his past mistakes, and Hemi slowly lets her guard down. It’s the kind of romance that makes you root for the characters from start to finish.
👧 The secondary characters add so much heart to the story. From Dallas’ teammates to Hemi’s close-knit family, they create a fun and supportive backdrop to the main couple’s relationship. Their interactions bring extra layers of humor and warmth, enriching the overall story.
✍️ Helena Hunting nails the perfect balance of humor and emotion. The dialogue is sharp, witty, and heartfelt, while the pacing keeps you hooked from the very first page. Every scene feels intentional, with just the right amount of tension, love, and laughter.
🌟 If You Need Me delivers all the feels! It's a fun, emotional rollercoaster with two characters you can’t help but fall in love with. Dallas and Hemi’s journey from enemies to lovers is packed with hilarious moments, emotional growth, and a romance that feels both real and swoon-worthy.

About the author
New favorite couple alert!!!!
Talk about BOY OBSESSED! This third book in Helena Hunting's Toronto Terror series might be my favorite yet. If you've read this series, you get a sense that there's something between Dallas & Hemi - the way Hemi needles Dallas & he just takes everything she throws at him (including clowns). And now we know that their shared history goes back decades to grade school & Dallas is a boy obsessed since childhood but fumbles his way to show his affection. It's such a sweet & endearing story that is filled with emotion & humor. Quick Overview: Dallas & Hemi grew up together but with two different experiences: Dallas, the popular prom King & Hemi, the outcast that his friends picked on. Dallas has been head-over-heels for Hemi since childhood but she thinks he was behind her worst high school moment. Flash forward to present day, where Hemi is head of PR for Dallas's team. This is his chance to win her over except after a drunk night he makes a mistake that ties them together. In order to save both their reputations & jobs, they go into a fake relationship but can Dallas convince Hemi that his feelings for her are anything but fake? Hemi is a girl after my own heart. I so related to her character - being a strong, direct woman who gets labeled as "too much" yet if she was a man, she'd be known as direct. She goes through it - getting to confront her past at her high school reunion but this time with Dallas by her side. I love the story & when she lets Dallas love her, HEART MELTING! Dallas!!! His love for Hemi going back decades & the way he is head over heels for her, cherishing every moment despite not loving all the PR she makes him do - he knows she is it for him & his determination to show her the truth of their past & how he has always tried to protect her even when he failed - SWOON! He is impulsive but so good natured. And so funny - I mean, anxiety boners!!! I was rolling with laughter. And just like the previous books, the spice is spicy & Dallas is open to let Hemi love him any way she wants to. We also get to see all of our favorite crew again & get hints to future storylines (Roman's & Flip's stories are coming & I cannot wait!!!) 🏒 Hockey Romance 💖 Enemies to Lovers 📎 Workplace ❣️ Childhood Crush 💋 Boy Obsessed ⚡️ Fake Dating/Fake Engagement 🛏️ One Bed Moment 🐈⬛ Black Cat x Golden Retriever 🫶 It's always been you ✌🏻 Dual POV
