PRE-ORDER this new sweeping 'rivals-to-lovers' sports romantasy from Sunday Times bestselling author, Sophie Kim . . .
For a chance at redemption, a disgraced player of carriwitchet - the brutal, rugby-esque sport played atop winged steeds - must team up with and fake-date the rival player who destroyed her career.
--
Grumpy Taissa Cho lives alone in an obscure corner of Scotland for a reason. Once, she was the UKHC’s (United Kingdom’s Hidden Cities) most promising carriwitchet player.
It was Taissa’s coach who had etched the illegal rune onto her, turning the odds in her favour despite Taissa’s protestations. And it was Kion, the annoying, handsome star player of her rival team, who caught her out. Her career was completely, and utterly, over. No team would take her.
Until Kion asked her to come and play for the Stymphs.
To garner publicity and keep Taissa as the Stymphs' secret weapon, she and Kion are forced into a fake relationship.
Can they save their team from ruin, even when sabotage seems afoot?
Tropes:
- Rivals-to-lovers
- Fake dating
- Found family
