Asher Donovan is a living legend―the darling of the Premier League, the (arguably) greatest footballer in the world.
But his reckless antics and recent team transfer have caused much controversy, and when his feud with his rival-turned-teammate costs them a championship, they're forced to "bond" during off-season cross-training.
Surviving the summer shouldn't be hard…until Asher meets their new trainer. She's beautiful, talented, and no matter how hard he tries, he can't take his mind off her.
The only problem? She's his rival's sister―and completely off limits.
Scarlett DuBois is a former prima ballerina whose career was cut short by a tragic accident.
Now a teacher at a prestigious dance academy but still haunted by the ghosts of her past, the last thing she wants is to spend the summer cross-training Asher Donovan, of all people.
She swore she would never date a footballer, but when her brother leaves town for an emergency, she finds herself thrown into dangerously close proximity with the gorgeous, charming striker.
Training, she can deal with. But falling in love? That's out of the question―especially when he's the only person with the power to break her heart.

Gods of the Game
Gods of the Game
12 books in catalog
Contemporary romance novels centered on wealthy figures, intense rivalries, and suspenseful relationship arcs have achieved massive readership across global publishing platforms and social media communities. Author Ana Huang became a breakout figure in the new adult and romance genres through her multi-book series featuring protective heroes, driven heroines, and high-stakes emotional drama. Her works, including popular titles such as Twisted Love, Twisted Games, Twisted Hate, and Twisted Lies, have collective sales exceeding 25 million copies worldwide and have been translated into thirty-four languages.
Born on March 7, 1991, to Chinese immigrant parents in the United States, Ana Huang first began writing short stories as a child after her mother encouraged daily English exercises to help her learn English as a second language. What began as a language practice exercise evolved into a lifelong passion for narrative storytelling. She began publishing her fiction around 2013, initially starting in self-publishing and building a massive social-media presence before transitioning into a hybrid publishing model. Her viral platform success helped propel her multi-book Twisted series onto international bestseller lists, earning top spots on the New York Times, USA Today, and Sunday Times charts. Beyond print publication, her work has attracted screen adaptation interest, with the Twisted series optioned for television at Netflix and her sports romance series Gods of the Game in development at Amazon MGM Studios. She has been featured across major media outlets, including Good Morning America, The Drew Barrymore Show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, Today, and The Washington Post. Outside of writing, she is an avid traveler who has visited nearly forty countries and an enthusiastic crossword puzzle solver.
Huang's writing is characterized by a blend of high-steam romance, emotional angst, and character-driven suspense. Her contemporary and new adult romances frequently feature possessive, morally complex heroes and resilient heroines navigating popular romantic tropes, such as enemies-to-lovers, fake relationships, and royal or billionaire bodyguard dynamics. Drawing inspiration from her extensive personal travel across nearly forty countries, she routinely incorporates international destinations, grand architectural settings, and luxury backdrops into her storylines. Her narrative approach emphasizes sharp dialogue, intense interpersonal tension, and secondary character connections that set up interconnected standalone novels within larger series frameworks.
