A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
A heartwarming small-town romance about second chances, unexpected teamwork, and finding love where you least expect it.
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Spanish Love Deception comes a charming sports romance filled with humor, heart, and the irresistible chemistry of two people who never expected to need each other.
Adalyn Reyes has built her entire life around discipline and ambition. Every morning starts the same way: wake up early, head to the Miami Flames FC offices, prove her value, and keep moving forward. But when a disastrous confrontation with the team mascot goes viral, her carefully controlled world begins to unravel.
Instead of losing her job, Adalyn is given one final chance by the team’s owner—her own father. Her mission: travel to a tiny town in North Carolina and transform the struggling local soccer team, the Green Warriors, into a success story that can restore her reputation.
There’s just one problem: Adalyn expected a challenge, but she didn’t expect a team that practices in tutus, keeps goats as pets, and is terrified of their new coach. And then she discovers the players aren’t struggling professionals—they’re nine-year-old kids.
Making matters even more complicated is Cameron Caldani, a former soccer prodigy and legendary goalkeeper who now lives quietly in town. Cam seems like the perfect person to help Adalyn turn the team around, but their first meeting—complete with an angry rooster, a painful accident, and a damaged car—leaves him determined to send her packing.
But Adalyn refuses to give up. This team is her chance to prove she’s more than one mistake, and redemption is something she intends to earn. Even if it means working alongside the one person who seems determined to stand in her way.
Filled with witty banter, lovable characters, small-town charm, and a slow-burning romance, this unforgettable story proves that sometimes the biggest victories come from the places—and people—we never saw coming.
