The hot new soccer romance for fans of Ted Lasso and She's the Man
She's met her match. But will the winner take all or lose everything?
Marcee Ackerman's dream job as head soccer coach at Pemberton Prep is turning into a nightmare. Her new boss has given her an ultimatum—win the state championship or she’s fired. To make matters worse, Pemberton's rival school hires hotshot ex-England player Remington Lockley as their new coach. How can she compete against a world-class pro?
To keep her job and her reputation safe, Marcee will do whatever it takes. But one steamy encounter with Remy has thrown her plans off-course. Falling for the enemy may be just what Marcee's boss needs to get rid of her for good, yet she is powerless to resist as she gets to know the real Remy behind the tabloid scandals.
Soccer is life, but love is the greatest game of all. Even Marcee’s competitiveness might not be enough for her to win…
This steamy sports romance is perfect for fans of Meryl Wilsner, Amy Lea and Elena Armas.

No fraternising. Especially not with your student’s hot guardian…
Moving to New York might be the most radical thing Nicole Giles has ever done. When the opportunity to be an assistant soccer coach at an elite private school lands in her lap, it's not something she can turn down.
But Nicole immediately clashes with spoiled sophomore Reagan, who has just as much attitude as she does potential on the pitch. Even worse – the hot local chef Nicole was crushing on turns out to be Reagan’s sister, and Kerrigan won’t hear a word against her.
Thrown together time and again, Nicole eventually manages to thaw Kerrigan’s iciness. Neither can deny their feelings for each other, but the school has rules about staff fraternisation, and both sisters are still reeling from the loss of their parents. Is love worth the risk if it could mean losing it all?
A stunning and swoony sapphic romance, perfect for fans of Meryl Wilsner and Ashley Herring Blake.
Coming May 2027
