Off the Pitch: Goals & Glory, #5
Rowan Tate

Jordan Ellis thrives on routine, solitude, and laser focus. Tessa Lee is all heart, energy, and spontaneous joy. When the two begin unofficial training sessions at sunrise, a quiet rhythm develops—one that feels suspiciously like something more than friendship. As practices grow longer and conversations grow deeper, Jordan realizes that letting someone in might be the bravest move she's ever made. But can she step outside her comfort zone and claim the happiness that's been quietly waiting for her all along?
Slow burn, opposites attract, and a love story written under stadium lights.
