About the Book
YA ROMANCE BY GOLDEN HEART FINALIST, BRIA QUINLAN
Since her mom died, Amy Whalen’s been invisible—but not in the cool, superpower kind of way. Overlooked at school and ignored at home, Amy holds tight to her few constants: running, painting, and her long-held crush on soccer god, Chris Kent. But as senior year nears, Chris doesn’t just notice her, he needs her.
Amy will agree to almost anything to be with him.
Everything is great—sort of—until Luke Parker shows up for soccer tryouts and sees through every one of Amy’s defenses. When Luke decides he wants Chris’s spot on the team and wouldn’t sneeze at the captain’s jersey either their rivalry spins out of control.
It doesn’t help that Luke also wants the girl Chris kept hidden all summer: AMY.
About the Author
It didn’t surprise anyone when Bria Quinlan started writing YA … after all, her life is a walking sitcom (minus the commercials). Plus, secretly she’s still 16 (although her license says something different). Finally putting those undergrad degrees to work, Bria’s excited to get her quirky stories on the page to share with the world (or at least a segment of it).
Bria writes Romantic Comedies for teens that take hard topics and make you laugh through your tears. She also writes sweet & sassy Contemporary Romances as Caitie Quinn.
A proud Golden Heart Finalist, she’s focusing on writing stories that make you laugh, make you cry and remind you that life is an adventure not to be ignored.

Were you in team sports in high school? If so, which one(s)? Tell us about it!
I am not in high school yet. But when I do get in high school I will definitely take up volleyball.
No I have not played any sports during high school, but I played soccer when I was younger.
I did not participate in high school team sports. My school was in town and I lived on the island. My only transportation was the 45 minute school bus. However, I did surf, and walk 15 miles of white sand beaches with a 24 lb. Hemmingway Tabby cat. At the time, I thought neither of these activities were sports… They were just something to prevent boredom and lonliness.
I am in Marching band

hahaha funny i really can’t play any kind of sports
No I wasn’t.
Thanks for the chance to win!
no team or solo sports for me. tks for the chance to win
I played volleyball and softball. Soccer had waaaaaaaay too much running around a huge field for me!
Going to a small school I was able to play a lot of sports: basketball, golf, tennis, track
Sadly, the closest I got to school sports in high school was being a member of Latin Club and, therefore, the Certamen team (like a Latin version of a knowledge bowl based around grammar, history, mythology, etc.)–so not even close at all, really. Though outside of school, just about every Saturday (and most days during summer vacation) I would play Ultimate Frisbee with my friends–yeah, I think I should at least get a little credit for that haha!
I wasn’t in a sports team in high school. I’m not very athletic. :/
I ran track in jr high and high school. No wonder I don’t like running now, any other activity but..I guess I had my fill.
I didn’t play sports in high school. I was in the choir instead.
Basketball and track were my sports in high school and I loved them!

Sounds interesting and I can’t wait to read it. Though I didn’t play sports in High School.
Sports were never my thing in high school.
