The cover has a guy on a motorcycle. Of course I am going to read this!This book takes place in Australia so the football you are thinking of may not be the football in this book! (Sorry, I had to sneak in hot guys! You're welcome.)[there is a link to hot guys if you check out this review on my blog]I really did enjoy this story. All the friends are such different people and they all get along and it is great. A sensible school teacher and a dominatrix best friend... you can't go wrong! Those aren't even all of the people we get to read about in this story. And don't worry, this isn't one of those books that goes on and on about the side characters. (I hate that!) The friends are mentioned because they are all so close but they aren't fighting for being the main story line and I liked that.This is a great story about learning to accept your past and just move forward and to just be yourself. It is also proof that family doesn't have to be a blood relative. When you are close enough friends with somebody they are your family.Ella and Jake both grew up in the same small town together and they both had their problems. Small towns can be like that. Almost two decades after leaving town, Ella's past rears its ugly head.This book has a former sexy rugby player, ex circus folk, dogs, and even tarot cards. It was a nice, easy, fun read and I would recommend it.
