Description

All's Fair in Love and Field Hockey by Kit Rosewater explores a high school field hockey star's dilemma between her passion for the game and her new, distractingly beautiful rival. This queer YA romance is perfect for fans of She Drives Me Crazy and Cleat Cute.

"A masterclass in romantic tension." - Becky Albertalli, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda

Evelyn was raised to see field hockey as war. Before she could write her own name, her family's legacy on the field was already spelled out. Every step Evelyn takes toward glory is within a footprint her mother left behind. No step matters more than this next one, with Evelyn about to lead her varsity team into their final battle season. Evelyn is beyond ready to score the Nationals title and win the critical scholarship to her mom's alma mater that comes with it.

This year, she's out for blood, and nothing can stand in her way...

...except for Rosa Alvarez, the highly talented new recruit on her biggest rival's team.

After a humiliating homecoming game and follow-up prank leave the two enemies in a stalemate, they grudgingly strike a deal to help each other overcome their weaknesses on the field. But the more time Evelyn spends with Rosa, the more she finds herself casting her hardened armour aside, until she begins to wonder what life might be like if she left the battlefield behind and fought for love instead.

"This one's definitely a keeper!" - Jennifer Dugan, bestselling author of Some Girls Do
