Finley’s ambition to join her school’s podcast team is thrown off course when her ex-boyfriend Jensen claims the idea she planned to pitch.

Theo, Jensen’s rival, becomes her trainer—and a growing connection complicates Finley’s plans. The setup brings together school podcasting, football, revenge, and contemporary romance, with Theo’s secrets adding another thread to the story. An author Q&A is included.

Book overview

A swoony new romance from the author of Sunkissed! When her football-player boyfriend and now ex lands the podcast job she's been dreaming of, a girl takes matters into her own hands by enlisting the help of his nemesis to get revenge.

Seventeen-year-old Finley has only ever had one goal: to become a famous podcaster. This includes coming up with the perfect pitch to land her on her school's podcast team. But when her football-obsessed boyfriend, Jensen, decides to also try out--and uses her idea--she's left confused and betrayed.

Determined to get back at him, Finley and her friends try to find the perfect revenge scheme, but quickly discover that Jensen is almost-impossible to best. Keyword, almost.

By chance, Finley discovers a knack for kicking and decides to take Jensen's spot on the football team. To help her train, she recruits Jensen's cute but conceited nemeses, Theo. Soon the two discover that their connection runs deeper than football. But Finley can't let herself get distracted, and Theo has secrets of his own. Is true love really better than the perfect revenge?
