Against the Run of Play — Kiru Taye

Soccer player and reformed bad boy, Asher is not having his best season. A spate of poor form and injuries has left him sitting on the bench for crucial games while his team fights for a promotion spot into the league’s top division. Frustrated, he falls back on some old habits and gets away to blow off steam, where he meets the vivacious Vivi. She has zero interest in soccer or footballers. Yet, two days with her and his world seems to right itself. She is everything he didn’t know he needed in a woman. He wants to spend more time with her. Yet when he finds out her full identity, she becomes the last woman anyone seems to want for him.
