There are a million reasons why I shouldn’t rekindle my friendship with Nikolaus Valentino.
Two years ago, he promised to keep in touch when my dad transferred back to America… He didn’t. To be fair, our dads forbade us from seeing each other; surprisingly, we reunited on a different continent at a private school, playing soccer together again.
While he’s grown into six feet of handsome muscle, with more years of potential growth, he has every girl in school vying for him, putting my anxiety-ridden self in a tough place: fight for him and risk putting myself out there just to be rejected again or remain quiet and let another girl win Nik’s heart?
Plus, his family has a business that seems shady, mostly because he doesn’t talk about it... until it’s too late. Now that I know, will I be the one to tear us apart this time?
But there’s a silver lining… I learn who I can really depend on in life.
Get ready for a swoon-worthy, edge-of-your-seat YA soccer romance about friends who fall in love.

I met Karen Tucci on Instagram a couple of years ago, when I won her book, Starting Over. She is one of the most sincere Christian women I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. Her sweet adult romances are sprinkled with God’s love and truth, and her characters reflect Christian values and morals. I have loved all of Karen’s books, but I adore her Big L’ Ranch series, set in Montana, and her first YA sports romance, The Big Score, set at a Christian prep school. If you are looking for independent women and the supportive, protective men who love them, Karen should be one of your go-to authors.

My very first book by Karen was When the Dust Settles and it was amazing. She has a way of sucking you into the story, into the lives of the characters and making you cheer for them as you read, even while they struggle - it's a beautiful thing. I also love the universe she's created, making you want to jump into the book and hangout with everyone.
