Offside (Rules of the Game)

Product Information

He isn't playing to win - and when he gets a red card for a dirty foul, it looks as though it's all over. He is SO possessive of her to the point where I was like “I don’t want Bailey to end up with him either”. after getting dumped on her birthday by her cheating boyfriend, bailey goes out for a girls night with her friends and gets hit on by chase, her brother and ex's hockey rival who's known for starting fights on the ice. It’s a bit long (562 pages plus 5 bonus chapters 😂), but the story moves along well, and I loved the characters enough to jump right into the bonus chapters. After being dumped on her 21st birthday, Bailey James rebounds right into the arms of her ex’s biggest competition.

The production, by Futures Theatre, has been developed in partnership with the National Football Museum, Manchester, and the IWM, London.He found out how she was being treated by her ex and did everything he could to shut him down, even before they got together, he's so swoon worthy. I love the fact that Bailey ended up with real friends and dumped those sh*ts she surrounded herself with in the beginning. I’ll admit I skipped through the last chapters because it was dragging out, and I just wanted to get it over with. With undergraduate degrees in Commerce and Psychology, Avery specialized in government policy and legislation in a previous life. My favorite quote from Chase was when he was talking to himself about bailey and getting to spend more time with her.

She's tagged along for the ride while her brother Derek, star defensive for the Bruder College Bulldogs, has done the same. Has to be one of my top 3 hockey romances, the right mix of plot, tension, spice and general life so it reads (listens? By the 1920s, the United States was contentedly isolated from what was fast becoming an international obsession.Sociology scholars and soccer aficionados alike should be intrigued by this painstakingly comprehensive analysis, made especially accessible by the lively and enthusiastic style of the authors. Keep in mind the smut is like half a page and I wouldn’t even count it as smut, let alone good smut. Hoping that Derek (only one of Bailey's brothers that played a big part in the story) gets his own book so i can like him more.

After a chance encounter at a nightclub, the two of them form an unlikely friendship that develops into something more. I eat these stories up probably because the shenanigans are something so different (and unlikely) than I had experienced. I'm obsessed because from page one, Avery's writing completely transfixed me, I was so hook-line-and-sinker in the story and characters and their world. The two form an unlikely friendship and as they start to spend time together, a bond and chemistry starts to form. I am straight-up fumbling with my words right now because I can't properly articulate what this book did for me.The heroine starts dating the hero, a hockey player from her school rival’s team (which her brother and ex both play for her school’s team). It covers recent developments, including the hoopla surrounding the 1994 soccer World Cup in America, the creation of yet another professional soccer league, and American women’s global preeminence in the sport. His sleuthing leads him to find Kofi, a young player from Ghana who has been duped by a crooked agent.

Before I know it, we’re having “study dates” and he's taking me out for a do-over birthday to replace the bad memories with good ones. if im being honest romance books should not be longer that 500 - 600 pages because there is barely any plot and most of the chapters in this book are just them having sex anyway. The conflict is external to the couple, which I loved, but it is something very similar to happen in one of my favorite other hockey romances of 2022. I kept seeing recommendations for this book on tiktok, so I thought let’s give it a go and it did not disappoint. Offside follows Bailey, a college girl who gets broken up with on her birthday, and Chase, a hotshot hockey player from Bailey’s rival school.Please note: This listing is for the published, revised version of Offside only as there will be some substantial edits and changes. there was so much to them between the kind-of enemies-to-lovers; fake dating-ish; he falls first (God how I love that! Will Danny, Paul and Charlotte be able to save their much-loved football club from a hostile takeover? She’s got a lot to prove and though Billie-Jo Barker scores on the ice, will this girl ever score with the man of her dreams?
