After the Siren

Love is hard to tackle in this enemies-to-lovers football rom-com for fans of Casey McQuiston and Alexis Hall.

Two teammates get off on the wrong foot . . . but might just stumble into love.

Theo Bestavros did everything right. He worked hard, got his game-winning moment and - failed. He's determined to make the most of a second chance at the Brunswick Falcons.

Jake Cunningham has it all. He's a Falcons fan-favourite, a constant headline, and has no intention of being the first AFL player to come out.

Jake thinks Theo is hot. Theo thinks Jake is a colossal pain. When they're forced into extra training together, they don't expect to find friendship, let alone something that looks a lot like dating. But Jake doesn't want to come out, and Theo can't jeopardise his shot at redemption.

After the Siren is a romantic comedy about inconvenient attraction, second chances and the joys of AFL.

'A rom-com so sweet and humorous, and with such a perfectly plotted enemies to lovers romance, that it almost made me care about football.' Patrick Lenton
