After a tragedy involving a football player destroyed her family, athletic trainer and graduate student, Cassie moves across the country looking for a fresh start, but a change in financial aid lands her in the middle of her worst nightmare. Meanwhile, rookie coach Reed worries his dream career will slip away as injuries plague his players and his star receiver teeters on the brink of ineligibility. As the two work together to salvage the season, sparks fly, and Reed must eventually choose between the game and the woman he loves.

Book Takeaway:

Mankind looks at the outside appearance and characteristics of people, often judging others based on stereotypes, but God looks deeper to the heart. And love can heal old wounds.

Why the author wrote this book:

I happen to like football, but what if someone who hated football started to fall in love with a coach? What would it take to change their mind about a game? With those questions in mind, I dove into the college football scene and let my imagination romp.
