Camden lives and breathes football (soccer to you Yanks) just like all his brothers, and he's on the verge of moving on from his hometown team to the premier league. When he busted his knee and ended up in a London hospital, watching the possibility of his dreams being destroyed, he desperately needed a distraction, and the young female doctor, Indie, proved to be the perfect distraction, esp. when she refused to respond to his come-ons. // Indie knew she's special... she skipped three grades and just graduated medical school at 24, and she wrote a paper on a special knee surgery technique that can save Camden's knee. But she also admits she'd never done things that girls do, like flirting, or have boyfriends. And a fling with the hunky footballer may be just what she needed... no matter how inappropriate it may be. // Camden and Indie came together, and they can't believe how right they are for each other. But Camden is overwhelmed by the possibility he may not play again (despite all signs saying he will), esp. when he learned that Indie will gain fame from assisting in the surgery. Was she using him all along? When Camden refuse to complete the surgery, and broke it off with Indie, can Indie save him... from himself?
Camden did come off a bit of a cad at the beginning, but redeemed himself nicely. Note that this book reads VERY British (with proper Queen's English!) but then, it is football we are talking here. I have a slight problem with the geekette angle... Feels like a bit of cliche and all that. But it works here.
