Offside: A Steamy Enemies-to-Lovers Soccer Romance
I've covered press rooms quieter than a Rafe Torres conference.
England's captain doesn't do interviews. Doesn't do personal questions. And he definitely doesn't do whatever this is — the two of us on a rooftop above New York, the whole city lit up below us, nowhere left to pretend.
I was sent to land the exclusive. The career-making story.
I found something else.
He doesn't trust journalists. I don't cross professional lines. We're exactly where neither of us is supposed to be.
Except we've already crossed every one.
Now there's a secret I was never meant to hear — one that could end his tournament, break my career wide open, and cost me the one thing I didn't plan for.
The story. Or him.
I can't have both.
Offside is a steamy enemies-to-lovers sports romance with slow-burn tension, a World Cup setting, and a love that's strictly off the record.

I enjoyed reading this but I definitely read it under the impression that it was an Enemies-to-Lovers. This is more leaning to star-crossed lovers or love at first sight then they never met each other again for a very long time or TOTGA. There was not even a time they truly hated each other. Also, this is not steamy, I would say it is pretty closed door or fade to black and only like 2 scenes.
Other than that, I'd recommend it if you just want a quick sports romance to read.
