Will Genie, Head of Player Care at Covenly FC, put her job on the line when she falls for their controversial new number 10 Tony Garratt?

Genie Edwards, Head of Player Care at Covenly FC, loves her job. Even if the club doctor is her ex-husband.

When Covenly qualify for the Champions League, they're determined to stay there and smash their record transfer fee to bring in renowned 'Number 10' Tony Garratt, who urgently needs a career boost after recently being snapped falling out of nightclubs during a very public break up. When Tony is late to his first ever press conference, it looks like some things never change . . .

But soon Genie begins to suspect there may be more to this rough diamond than meets the eye - will she put her career on the line and take a second chance at love?

Or was everyone right about Tony all along?

I absolutely loved this book, and it's definitely one for Football fans...  well actually most of it is behind the scenes stuff, so you don't need to know the offside rule to be able to enjoy this. 

In fact at times it felt reminiscent of Dream Team (still wish Sky would schedules repeats!) - with us getting to know one part of the cog that goes into running a football club. 

Plus new signing Tony, who the more I saw of him the more I really loved him. He is a bit old school regarding banter which is something I quite enjoy. 

And player care manager Genie catches his eye almost instantly. 

Genie is lovely, and I love any and all insights into club setups. 

I was loving every word of this and could picture everything so clearly. 

Just incredibly enjoyable. 

Thank you to Penguin and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
