A single dad, sports romance from Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author, Devney Perry.
Football star. Single dad. And once, a long time ago, mine.
I’ve spent the better part of a decade forgetting Ford Ellis. If he had just stayed away from Montana, I might have erased the memory of his striking blue eyes and rugged smile forever. Avoiding him was easy when the only place I saw his face was on ESPN—and a remote control could fix that problem.
Except my boss just hired Ford as the new head coach for the Treasure State Wildcats. Not only will I be stuck watching him on the sidelines this season, but avoiding him will be impossible now that we’re working together.
Maybe I haven’t forgotten Ford. Maybe I still dream about what we might have been. Maybe he hasn’t forgotten me either.
Except those maybes won’t change the fact that we were never meant to be. Maybe he was mine once. But as of today, the only thing I’ll be calling Ford Ellis is Coach.
Devney Perry books never disappoint me. COACH was fun and gives readers everything we’d expect from this author.
Ford and Millie were best friends in college and may have been more if not for an event that turned Ford’s life upside down. He went on to have his NFL career and Millie stayed in Montana to work towards her dream. 14 years later, they meet again at the scene of the crime…aka, Treasure State University.
Both of them are now single and Ford is determined to claim Millie and prove the spark that was never allowed to grow is worth fighting for. Millie is skittish and isn’t sure she can trust what she feels or Ford, despite what he says or does. Add in his young daughter, Joey, and Ford finds himself with a tough battle.
I liked Ford and Millie. I was rooting for Ford to break down Millie’s walls (or really burst his way through). Millie spent a lot of time fighting her feelings for Ford, her self-worth when it came to Ford and really opening her eyes and understanding what was in front of her. She quickly got out of her way when she needed to, but it took her a long time to get there.
