The soccer-mad gang from Brunswick Valley School featured in Robert Rayner's two previous books for this series is back, gathering every Saturday afternoon to play a friendly game against friends from a neighboring town. A well-meaning adult spots potential in some of the players and offers guidance, inspiring parents of the other side to get their own coach. As the games become more structured, they become more serious -- and less fun. It's up to the kids to find a way to reclaim the spirit of the sport. Just for Kicks is another comical installment in the series that includes Walker's Runners and Miss Little's Losers. [Fry Reading Level - 4.1

Fans of Meghan Quinn, Lisa Suzanne, and Vi Keeland will enjoy this steamy romantic comedy from USA Today Bestselling author of contemporary romance, Tracy Solheim featuring a kilt-wearing football player who is about to be deported back to Scotland. It was supposed to be just for kicks... Andi Larsen learned early on there is no such thing as fairy godmothers. A childhood spent in foster care will do that to a girl. She’s working her way through night school and is on the cusp of establishing her own business without help from anyone, thank you very much. But when her deadbeat ex steals her identity, amassing a staggering debt in her name, her fairy godmother appears in the guise of a spunky, Fireball whisky-wielding septuagenarian. The older woman’s solution for Andi? Tie the knot with a kilt-wearing, moody jock whose legs look sexier in a skirt than hers do. Declan Fletcher never intended to be a place-kicker for a professional football team. But fate had other plans. Exiled from his beloved Scotland a decade ago, Dex is now a superstar athlete known throughout the league as the “Man with the Million Dollar Leg.” But when a mix-up in his immigration paperwork threatens to send him home before the season begins, he’ll do anything to avoid deportation and facing his greatest mistake. Even if it means marrying a pink-haired waif of a lass with eyes that seem to see everything he’s determined to keep hidden. A grumpy cat, nosy teammates, and a sizzling sexual attraction make their marriage of convenience anything but convenient. This fun, flirty, enemies-to-lovers sports romance delivers a happily ever after that will have you laughing, crying, sighing, and cheering in the end zone. Fans of the movie "The Proposal" will love this first book in the Milwaukee Growlers Football romance series. While part of a series, this book can be read as a standalone.

A Las Vegas showgirl goes all in on her sexy, straightlaced neighbor in the New York Times–bestselling author’s contemporary romance. Las Vegas showgirl Carly Jacobsen keeps learning the hard way that her idea of fun differs radically from that of her neighbor Wolfgang Jones. Sure, he looks incredible, and he seems to have a thing for her legs, but the man’s a robot. So what’s with their chemistry? Wolf has a plan for his life, and it doesn’t include finding himself tempted by the freewheeling Carly—or her mile-high legs. Yet in a moment of weakness, the two discover at least one area where they do both have fun. But outside the bedroom the stakes are getting higher, and love might come down to a roll of the dice.
