This is a really good book. Definatly for older teens or young adults. It has a lot of romance, and some heart ache too.

It is about a man named Patrick Kelsey and a women named Pam Cassels. Patrick has wanted to be the football coach for the high school for sometime, then the principal tells him she has hired a women. Patrick gets really mad, thinking a women can't do the job of a football coach. The women, Pam Cassals is really an achiever, who has already won an Olympic gold metal.

At first sight, Patrick likes Pam Cassals, before he even knows who she is. When he finds out, he sets out not to like her, but he can't help it.

Pam Cassals doesn't want to like Patrick either, because dispite her achievements, she has had a heartache, and because of that she feels like she can't tell Patrick something that almost ruined her.

The former all-star male player is floored that the new football coach, ...a woman. But Pam's charima and catching enthusiasm change many a doubltful heart. And when Pat tries to get close, he is surprised by her cold reaction...
Great addition to Tyler series.

When Patrick Kelsey learns that it is a woman who will replace the retired coach instead of him he is not too pleased. But when he sees that Pam Casals has the right stuff for the job the man changes his tune and quick. But Pam does have some troubles, the least of which is her attraction to Patrick. Pat Warren's sophomore entry in the tapestry that is the Tyler Saga is a sweet and easy read. The only real shortcoming of the book is the clumsy murder sub-plot which feels out of place, the events having no real connection with the Casals/Kelsey romance. Recommended.

Received item in excellent time! Item was just as described! Would use this seller again! Thanks! A+

Sure, it was better than the first in the series (Whirlwind). And maybe I'm biased, knowing this book is like fifteen years old. But I really thought it could be better... I mean, I'm sure people liked it then, but if I pick up an old book I expect it to be realistic, no matter when it was written. And I seriously doubt that the dialogue is realistic, even for 1992. I mean, guys just don't talk like that.

Still, I give Pat Warren credit, since this was better than Whirlwind by a mile.
