Meeting Her Match

She loathes him. She wants him. And dammit, she just might love him.

Her body may still crave his, but US Soccer player Lauren Vorski knows better than to lust after Pete Kendrick. They may have had a smoking hot fling, but then he turned out to be her new head coach and had the nerve to cut her from the World Cup team. Now her only mission is to prove how wrong he was about her by making the roster for the upcoming Olympics. If only she could stop thinking about how hot their time together was...

Pete Kendrick never forgot about Lauren, but he had to walk away from their romance when he was offered his dream job coaching the US Women's Soccer team. Now coaching the Canadian women's team, he never expected to run into her again. But when a hot birthday hook-up leads to consequences with the potential to ruin Lauren's Olympic dreams, the two must work together to fix things. As they work to fix the situation, they can't deny the chemistry that still exists between them. And the more time they spend together, the more Lauren finds she might actually... like him?

But can she trust the man who once crushed her dreams? Can Pete be with someone who lives in another country, when distance is what killed his first marriage? As they face new challenges and old insecurities, Lauren and Pete must decide whether to take a chance on each other or let their past keep them apart.
