DESCRIPTION
“Shines with sparkling banter and charming characters. This slow-burn sports romance is absolutely worth the wait!” CARLEY FORTUNE, bestselling author of Our Perfect Storm
She doesn’t know the offside rule. She does know falling for a footballer is a terrible idea…⚽🔥💗The perfect summer read for anyone swept up in football fever, Abby Offsides is a slow-burn, friends-to-lovers romance packed with sparkling banter, forbidden chemistry and one very swoony Scottish footballer.
Abby McIntyre doesn’t care about soccer - sorry, football. She only took the marketing job at Mersey FC to escape her cheating fiancé in Boston. Now she’s in a new country, with no social life and an Instagram feed full of men in tiny shorts.
Enter Lachlan Ramsay: world-famous footballer, owner of killer abs and a delicious Scottish accent. Abby’s sure all footballers are players, but Lachlan takes her by surprise: he’s kind, funny, and lonely too.
Abby isn’t looking for love, and players are strictly off limits if she wants to keep her job. She’s happy being Lachlan’s friend - until she’s evicted from her flat and he invites her to move into his penthouse.
With her new life on the line, can Abby keep her heart in play without getting caught offside?
