A washed-up coach won't change her mind.

When her former neighbor, Lincoln Barker, moves back to town, Rachel's surprised to learn he's the new football coach at the elementary school. The cocky hometown hero wants her nephew on his football team, but the boy needs a mentor with a better reputation. Lincoln Barker wants his life back after ruining his career. He hopes Bear Hollow remembers he carried them to the state championships, but small town rumors have made him a joke. To make things worse, his old crush is still single, beautiful, and unimpressed with him. Rachel doesn't want her nephew on the new team Lincoln hopes will salvage his reputation, but he's not sure he can win without him-or ever be happy without her.

This book is a clean and wholesome small town sports romance.
