When Maddie Chase, a fangirl and pro footballer, gets injured before her debut in the season opener for the world-renown Southgate FC, she enlists the help of a fellow injured comrade-in-arms, the phenom player Jesse Windmeier. She just didn’t expect him to be a giant pain in her ass, or distract her from getting back on the field with his talent and good-looks. When Jesse realizes that training Maddie has quickly become the highlight of his day and wants to spend more time with her, Maddie doesn’t know what to do. Her life has always been about achieving her one goal - playing pro and winning all the accolades, and Jesse...Jesse's become something of a distraction. Will Maddie make it back on the field, or will her heart lead her astray? ******************************************************************************************************************************** KEYWORDS: sports romance, soccer romance, European football romance, Ted Lasso Feels, enemies-to-lovers, pro-female athlete heroine, pro-male athlete hero, soccer jargon, contemporary romance, fangirl romance, choosing between your dream and love, workplace romance, enemies to friends to lovers, virgin romance, new adult romance, new adult romance after college, angsty romance, angst, injured heroine, injured hero, forced proximity, evolution of the relationship, choose between soccer or love, training montage, training as foreplay, easter eggs, references, She's the Man vibes.

Book excerpt: A fangirl's heart is caught between the man of her dreams...and the actor who plays him. Aria Larsen compares every guy she's ever met with the fictional character that's stolen her heart. When she gets the opportunity to meet the actor who plays him in real life, she can't help but feel disappointed, especially knowing that Ayden Stone finds part of the fandom…distasteful. Never in her wildest imagination did Aria expect the one and only Ayden Stone to be interested in her, and even though he looks like the man of her dreams, Ayden's nothing at all like the character he plays. When Ayden turns out to be actually interested in her, Aria's at a loss. What is she supposed to do with a living, breathing man with real flaws and real expectations of his own?

Book excerpt: When a bartender decides to finally grow up and get her life together, the last thing she needs is a quiet (and handsome) bouncer with an adorable puppy to derail her plans. Things are about to get cuffed. Izzy Prewitt has always been the Prewitt wild child. She doesn't have a career yet, despite being in her mid-twenties, and she's been tending bar ever since she was of legal age. When she finally decides that she's going to become that better version of herself that her family can be proud of, the last thing she needs is to get embroiled in helping a coworker and his puppy. Izzy can tell that Callum's vibe is all about putting his head down and working hard, but Luna the puppy has other plans. Before Izzy knows it, she's invested in the pup's health and welfare, even if Callum seems to think of her as the consummate party girl that always gets her way. When Izzy spends Valentine's with Callum, she's wondering if something serious with him is up her alley, if Callum sees a future where they're both together. Except Izzy's always been the Prewitt Party Girl, and a serious relationship is something she's never really experienced. Can Callum be her first?

Book excerpt: 'Very funny on almost every page, wonderfully self-deprecating and very sharp on the ludicrous behaviour of the modern player' - Sunday Times 'The funniest man in British sport' - Metro **A Sunday Times Sports Book of the Year** **Shortlisted for the National Book Awards** **Longlisted for the Telegraph Sports Book Awards Autobiography of the Year** You become a footballer because you love football. And then you are a footballer, and you're suddenly in the strangest, most baffling world of all. A world where one team-mate comes to training in a bright red suit with matching top-hat, cane and glasses, without any actual glass in them, and another has so many sports cars they forget they have left a Porsche at the train station. Even when their surname is incorporated in the registration plate. So walk with me into the dressing-room, to find out which players refuse to touch a football before a game, to discover why a load of millionaires never have any shower-gel, and to hear what Cristiano Ronaldo says when he looks at himself in the mirror. We will go into post-match interviews, make fools of ourselves on social media and try to ensure that we never again pay £250 for a haircut that should have cost a tenner. We'll be coached and cajoled by Harry Redknapp, upset Rafa Benitez and be soothed by the sound of an accordion played by Sven-Goran Eriksson's assistant Tord Grip. There will be some very bad music and some very bad decisions. I am Peter Crouch. This is How To Be A Footballer. Shall we?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of the Bradford and Brussels football disasters in 1985, football in England was subjected to detailed scrutiny and criticism. Critics - of all sorts and persuasions - saw in those terrible events, especially the Brussels riot, evidence of the broader problems afflicting British (not merely English) life. Football, which had once represented so much of what was once considered good - fair- play, team play and sportsmanship - was now discussed as a major national problem. To most critics, at home and abroad, football came to represent a nation in decline, characterised by organised violence, drunkenness, political extremism and a host of related social problems. It was widely assumed that football - but especially those English fans who travelled abroad - was the epitome of what had gone wrong with life in urban Britain. It is understandable that those disasters would lead to heated and emotional argument. But many of the explanations of the events culminating in the disasters appear less convincing when scrutinised more closely. This book tries to examine not only the alleged roots of those violent incidents, but also to locate the problems afflicting the national game within the context of the broad social and economic changes which have transformed British life in the past generation. The book is as much an analysis of recent British social history as it is about the game of football.

From having no professional league and never appearing at a World Cup, the J.League is now one of the most keenly followed, best run, and eagerly scouted divisions in the world, the men’s national team is established as a regular challenger at international tournaments, and the nation’s women have enjoyed even greater success on the global stage. The positives are plentiful, but not everything is perfect with the beautiful game in the land of the rising sun. In Between The Lines, Sean Carroll takes you behind the scenes of the Japanese game, speaking to top players, coaches, and other insiders – including three former Samurai Blue managers – about their experiences of football in the country. These conversations form a multi-layered appraisal – and occasional critique – of the sport and nation at large, with Carroll’s in-depth study asking where Japanese football finds itself, how it got there, and where a nation of such vast potential can go next.

Book excerpt: The 2006 World Cup final between Italy and France was a down-and-dirty game, marred by French superstar Zidane's head-butting of Italian defender Materazzi. But viewers were also exposed to the poetry, force, and excellence of the Italian game; as operatic as Verdi and as cunning as Machiavelli, it seemed to open a window into the Italian soul. John Foot's epic history shows what makes Italian soccer so unique. Mixing serious analysis and comic storytelling, Foot describes its humble origins in northern Italy in the 1890s to its present day incarnation where soccer is the national civic religion. A story that is reminiscent of Gangs of New York and A Clockwork Orange, Foot shows how the Italian game -- like its political culture -- has been overshadowed by big business, violence, conspiracy, and tragedy, how demagogues like Benito Mussolini and Silvio Berlusconi have used the game to further their own political ambitions. But Winning at All Costs also celebrates the sweet moments -- the four World Cup victories, the success of Juventus, Inter Milan, AC Milan, the role soccer played in the resistance to Nazism, and the great managers and players who show that Italian soccer is as irresistible as Italy itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Martin Penny, a disillusioned and awkward young man, looks back to a turning point in his life – when his old, boring, and enthusiasm-destroying English teacher was arrested for pimping and was replaced by a fresh new teacher, a man who managed to blow off the dead-dust of his predecessor and rekindle the reader and writer in Martin. Martin, now an English teacher himself, has to come to terms with which of these two teachers he has come to resemble most – the one he hates or the one he emulates. Written in a free and easy style, Small Doses is a celebration of reading, writing, poetry, diary-keeping and of the little bits of magic poked, prodded and relighted back to life from the embers of memory.
