Take Her On
By Emily Wright
One field. Two unlikely teammates. Who will come out on top?
Maya’s final year at university is off to a rocky start.
Between pining for her childhood best friend, trying to revitalise her football team after another year of defeat, and dealing with her own family problems, she’s already overwhelmed.
Enter Jamie. As if dealing with her arch rival wasn’t enough, Maya must now find a way to play alongside this annoying loudmouth without losing her mind every five minutes.
Jamie just wanted a fresh start after all the drama at her last university. Love is the last thing on her mind; she just wants to focus on football and listen to her eighties music. But she has to admit, riling up her new and incredibly attractive captain is seriously entertaining. There’s just something about Maya that Jamie can’t keep away from.
As the championship draws near, tensions rise and secrets threaten to unravel. Are the games strictly on the field? Or have the two rivals finally met their match?
