YUP!!
A young girl fighting for her dreams to play soccer, while dealing with an old crush who is now a super famous soccer player abroad coming back to town? PLUS protecting her mother and brother from their father, and the threat of violence against women and girls that is rampant in the area she lives in?
This book covers so much and I love it all. Being a soccer fan myself, it was so well done and comparing her crush and her brother to real players that exist? Lovely.
