Lucy survived liver disease and a transplant and her ex-husband cheating on her with a woman she thought was her best friend. Ryker survived growing up poor and being bullied constantly to become a world renown professional soccer star. He’s a player off the field and she’s been cheated on, so how could she survive the fake relationship to improve his bad boy image he proposes, but she thinks of her 9 year old nephew Connor and all the good Ryker can do assisting his soccer team. I didn’t know much about soccer before reading this book. I loved that Lucy was an artist and graphic designer and has a career that she could do anywhere so she was available to take care of her nephew while her brother and his wife were serving in the military. This was a clean romance with plenty of funny and romantic moments.
