About The Long Game
After a viral mistake damages Adalyn Reyes’s career at her father’s football club, she is sent to a small town to turn around a struggling team. Her plan collapses when the players are nine-year-old girls and her only real help is retired goalkeeping star Cameron Caldani. They clash from the start, but coaching together forces them to lower their guards in a slow-burn small-town romance.
