1979. Susan Klintock is a junior in high school with a lot of sexual fantasies-- but not a lot of sexual experience. No boy she knows has been worth taking a shot on. That is, until Bobby McMann arrives. Bobby is foxy, charming-- and the coach of the brand-new girls' soccer team. Sure, he's off limits. But that doesn't mean Susan can't try out for the team to get closer to him. And she's always liked a challenge. Between the endless drills and grueling practices, Susan discovers she might actually love soccer. As friendships shifts, she finds her real passions might lie in places she didn't expect when the season began--and that discovering who she is will mean taking risks, both on and off the pitch.
