Thank you Netgalley for this ARC. Ready to Score is a sapphic romance about two teachers who want to coach high school football in the South. Jade has been coaching the team for years and Franny has only been in town for a few years. Jade had never liked Franny, but now that they want the same thing, she hates her and spends a lot of time trying to make her look bad to the head coach. Franny doesn't help the situation by egging her on but is then upset that Jade won't trust her. Overall, they spend a lot of time being bitchy towards each other and causing their own issues. There were some inconsistencies that were annoying but didn't ruin the story. There was a fair amount of spice, but that doesn't start until a ways in. I probably won't re-read, but I will recommend and read other books by Jodie Slaughter.
