Women's Fiction | Contemporary
Newly widowed Claire Emmett leaves Los Angeles so she and
her eleven-year-old daughter, Rachel, can have a fresh start
in the picture-perfect suburb of Santa Bella, California.
But the simple, quiet life she seeks is nowhere to be found
in the town where soccer is king and parents are far, far
too involved in children’s sports. When Rachel is scouted for an elite travel team, Claire is
sucked into a world of high drama, backstabbing and deceit.
The team manager plots a Wall Street-style hostile takeover.
Parents sabotage players, serve as sports agents, and trade
sexual favors for playtime. Off the field, Claire must navigate her way through the
brave new world of the suburbs and build a life that doesn’t
revolve around the insanity of kids’ sports. Nothing is
simple in Santa Bella, though. Claire’s married neighbor is
an outrageous flirt. She stumbles upon some dark secrets and
unwittingly becomes the target of a very powerful enemy. As Rachel’s team moves to the State Cup championship, Claire
must develop a game plan of her own. It’s time for her to
fight back and show her daughter what it means to be soccer
mom who plays to win when it matters most.
