A spirited young adult novel about a new girl desperate to find her place at Beachwood High without giving up her dreams.
Being pursued by the most popular boys at school? Amazing.
Running in the other direction to avoid being tackled by them? Not.
New girl Lucy Malone is heartbroken when she doesn’t make the Beachwood soccer team. Then the school soccer coach suggests she put her super-accurate kick to use in another sport—varsity football.
WHAT?!? Coach Martie wants Lucy to try out for the football team? But she’s a girl!
Lucy’s new friends point out that the cutest guys at school are on the football team. And being the only female could have its advantages.
Lucy makes the football team as its kicker and discovers that she loves football more than she could have ever imagined. Too bad none of the guys love having Lucy on their team.
Can Lucy overcome the objections of her coach, her teammates, and her overprotective dad to win the big game—and the heart of the starting quarterback?
