She is also very scared to go into the world of dating once more and has chosen to do the only thing she can: work on something that she can control.
For Piper, this means figuring out a way to truly be excellent in the bedroom. This might involve some solo play, or things might end up heating up thanks to the presence of Liam Sullivan.

The two decide to embrace it and see how much fun they’re able to have as husband and wife. It might just be for the hockey season, and it might not mean anything. But their fake marriage with benefits is seeing a clock ticking down on them and Piper and Liam know they are running out of time.
