Shea is a football fanatic in a small town in Texas, who has found herself stuck in a small-time job , with a small-town relationship. Her best friend’s father, the coach of the local college football team whom she has idolized, suggests to her that she needs to get out of her rut. In the process of making some needed changes, she sort of comes full circle in discovering what she really wants in her life.
With her usual uncanny ability, Griffin scooped me right up with this very engaging story. Her characters are smart and sassy and there is a lot of humanity in them as well. There are real conflicts with real layers just as in real life, but there’s just enough glamor mixed in to make it fun to read. And even though I know nothing about football -it’s got to be one of my least favorite sports! – I still was able to follow the gist of what was going on.
Basically a great summer read – perfect for the beach, which exactly where I read it!
