The Long Game: From the bestselling author of The Spanish Love Deception

When Adalyn finds herself exiled to a small town to rehabilitate her reputation, she's determined to whip a struggling soccer team into championship shape—only to discover her players are nine-year-old girls and the only other adult willing to help is Cameron Caldani, a retired soccer legend who thinks she's wound way too tight. Their first encounter involves a rooster and immediate friction, but as these two opposites are forced to work together coaching the adorable squad, something shifts between them. With humor, heart, and plenty of competitive banter, Adalyn and Cameron discover that winning isn't just about the game—it's about the messy, complicated journey you take with someone who challenges you in all the best ways. If you loved the feel-good charm of Ted Lasso or the swoon-worthy small-town vibes of It Happened One Summer, this is your next must-read.
