Perfect for fans of Ted Lasso and It Happened One Summer, this feel-good rom-com follows a disgraced football executive sent to rescue a struggling children's soccer team, and the grumpy retired star who reluctantly helps her. Packed with banter, heart and a slow-burn romance, it's an irresistible read for anyone who loves enemies-to-lovers chemistry wrapped in small-town charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAdalyn Reyes has spent years proving herself at her father's football club, determined to make her mark for the right reasons rather than her family name. But when an embarrassing video of Adalyn goes viral, her father exiles her to a sleepy small town to whip their failing soccer team into shape. She arrives with a plan and a clipboard, only to discover the team is made up of a rowdy group of nine-year-old girls, and the one person equipped to help her is Cameron Caldani, a legendary former goalkeeper who is mysteriously living in town. After an unfortunate run-in involving a rooster, Adalyn and Cameron get off on entirely the wrong foot. She thinks he's a surly, scowling brute; he thinks she needs to loosen up and stop taking life so seriously. But as the season progresses, the two begrudging rivals are forced to work together, coach the team, and navigate their growing attraction, discovering that some games are worth playing the long way. With Elena Armas's trademark humour, swoon-worthy tension and a found-family cast of characters, The Long Game delivers everything readers love in a contemporary rom-com: wit, warmth, and a will-they-won't-they romance that builds to a deeply satisfying payoff. It's the first book in Armas's Green Oak series, continuing her run of instant bestsellers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by global bestselling romance author Elena Armas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeel-good small-town sports rom-com in the vein of Ted Lasso\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romance with witty banter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new paperback, perfect for gifting or your own shelf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst book in the loved Green Oak series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nElena Armas is a Spanish writer and self-confessed hopeless romantic known for her warm, witty contemporary romance novels.
