Just a few sentences relating to ongoing theme in series. Basic love story. A former Olympian winner must create a new career as a football coach. An interest in a sport plus knowing about coaching apparently makes her good. As Pam tries to keep her MS disease secret, it acts up enough for her to face reality of letting the town know. The interaction between Patrick has very little tension since they come to love each other quickly. ( ) I was under the impression that the 12 books in the Welcome to Tyler series would all be related. This book 2 didn't seem to have any connection to Book 1 except that a few former characters were briefly mentioned but didn't really fit into the story. However, as a stand alone book it was very good. The story of a female football coach dealing with MS was interesting and as I have an aunt who has had MS for over 40 years and a college roommate with MS, I liked that the story shows you can live a full life while dealing with this illness. I really liked both Patrick and Pam and how they worked out their relationship. Good lesson too that the football team learned you have work to achieve your goals. A funny thing happened when I was going to read this book. I was rifling through the stack of crap on my coffee table for something suitable as use for a bookmark. What I hit upon was a little card advertising the upcoming MS walk that must have been delivered with a pizza or something. About halfway through the second chapter, it is revealed that the female main character in this book has MS! What a coincidence! I took it as a sign and donated to the cause. Anyhow, about the book itself. Pam comes to Tyler to coach the High School football team. Some townspeople, including Basketball coach Patrick Kelsey are somewhat dubious about a female's ability to coach football properly. Of course, she wins over both Patrick and the town. She is also concerned about how they will feel about her when she reveals her struggle with MS. This cute little book would be perfect for a Lifetime or Hallmark movie of the week. It's got great characters with real chemistry, the additional feel-good plot of a woman coaching a bunch of rabble-rousers to victory, and a great town full of interesting characters. The one complaint I would have is that the mystery that is supposed to thread through this series (that of the dead body discovered at the Lodge) is dropped into this book rather heavy-handedly. People mention interesting tidbits about the investigation in completely inappropriate settings. However, I can't really think of a better way to get that info in here, since neither main character really has anything to do with either the Lodge or the investigation. I would leave those parts out of the movie version. näyttää 4/4 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
