Is 'Cupid'S Chokehold' Based On A True Story?

What would you do if you stumbled upon a bride crying her eyes out minutes before the wedding, begging you to help her escape? You help her, of course.

What would you do when you discover he was the same guy left hanging at the altar earlier that day? You regret everything, of course. What would you do when you start seeing that same guy everywhere you go? You fall in love, of course.

He ruined me once. And now he’s back to finish the job—I can feel it. Else how do you explain this? The one man I should never see again is everywhere. In my head. In my bed when I close my eyes. In the wet dreams that leave me aching for the man who ghosted me after four years. That isn’t normal. Nothing about this is normal. People run from danger. They run from pain. But me? It feels like I’m running straight toward it. Or worse—like it’s running toward me. Roman Ward. The bane of my existence. And God help me… the only man I can’t escape.

A disgraced college hockey star facing a career ending scandal must fake date the cynical campus journalist who detests him all for the cameras of a high stakes reality TV show. The Setup: Jaxson Reed is one step away from the NHL draft when a viral video of a campus fight brands him a violent liability. Facing immediate suspension, his only lifeline is a deal struck by the athletic board and a streaming network: star in a new campus reality show, Beyond the Ice, and use a wholesome "fake girlfriend" to rehabilitate his image. Summer Brooks is a fierce journalism major who hates sports privilege. But when her tuition funding falls through weeks before graduation, she’s backed into a corner. In exchange for playing Jaxson’s devoted partner on television, the network agrees to pay her tuition in full and secure her post-grad career. The Conflict: The rules are simple: fake it for the cameras, ignore the mutual dislike, and don't catch feelings. But forced proximity quickly blurs the lines. Behind the script, they discover the truth about each other’s hidden vulnerabilities, and their bitter rivalry ignites into a very real, terrifying love. The Climax: Just as they find solid ground, the show's producers leak old footage of Summer admitting she took the gig purely for the money. With the championship game hours away, Jaxson feels utterly betrayed, and their contract dissolves in front of millions. To save his career and win back his trust, Summer must step away from the script, risk her own future, and expose the truth before the final buzzer sounds proving that sometimes, the most authentic love stories are the ones you never planned to write.

Every time Anthony Slim and I tried to get our marriage license, something went wrong. For three years, we tried thirty times. And every single attempt ended in an accident. The first attempt ended with a vagrant that went berserk and stabbed me four times. I nearly died outside the city hall. The second attempt ended with a speeding motorcycle crushing the bones of my hand. The third attempt ended with a burning mall, and I was trapped inside for three whole hours. … Everyone told me to cancel the engagement, but I stubbornly refused to give up. And then the 31st attempt ended with me getting rushed into the ICU. A billboard that fell from up high crashed right into me. I was rushed into the ICU with a severe head injury. The doctors issued one critical notice after another. For two months, I hovered between life and death before barely pulling through. Then on the day of my discharge, I overheard Anthony talking to his best friend. "If you really love that underprivileged student and want this marriage canceled, you can just tell Melissa. Why set up all those accidents? She nearly died." Anthony did not answer for a long time. When he did, his voice was filled with gloom. "I don't have a choice. Her family saved my life ten years ago, and her parents died in the process. This marriage contract is repayment of that favor. "But I only love Lily. I won’t marry anyone but her.” I looked at the bruises and wounds that decorated every inch of my skin and let out a broken cry. All the accidents and near-death experiences I went through were the machinations of another man, not actual mishaps. If Anthony was feeling stuck, I was more than happy to make that choice for him.
