Cate McNaughton has it all figured out.
She has the job she wants. She has the apartment she wants—she even has the perfect pillows on her couch! Yes, her life is wonderful. Isn’t that lucky?
Actually, luck has nothing to do with it. She’s the architect and builder of all this perfection. If she doesn’t have friends? She can make them. No guy? So what? She’s busy with the job, the apartment, and arranging those dumb pillows. Why don’t they look right?? In fact, nothing feels quite right. There’s just something off about all of it, but she’s not sure how to fix things this time.
Well, maybe she can fix someone else’s life instead. Ronan Wilder plays for the Junior Woodsmen in the lower-level football league: they’re the guys who never quite reached the big time. But he could try out and move up to real, serious football, and Cate could help him get there! She may not know anything about the sport but she can learn—and she definitely understands achievement and success.
Ronan could have those things, too, with her help. And he could also help her, by inviting her to parties, by playing miniature golf—he makes her a whole lot happier, just by being around. But it’s one thing to be friends, and it’s another to fall in love. Cate and Ronan don’t want that, anyway. Or maybe, their friendship is a tryout for something bigger…
