Finding Him by Aven Davis Wortman

“Good Luck, Molly.”
“Good Luck, Niall.”
He’s drowning in the past. She’s running from it.
He’s the captain. She’s the complication.
He fell first. They’re both afraid to fall at all.
For sixteen-year-old Molly Lockhart, Ireland is a cold, rainy exile. Separated from the father she loves and the life she knew in America, the only thing she has left is soccer. She’ll do anything to play—even if it means proving herself to a team of boys’ who think she doesn’t belong.
Niall Blue is the golden boy of Mayville and the captain of the Morrigal Saints; a star on the rise. But behind the mask is a boy holding his breath, haunted by the blue of the water that took his father and a knee injury that threatens to take his future. He’s used to the pain—he just numbs it with a bottle and a smile.
Falling for the captain wasn’t part of Molly’s plan, and letting someone in wasn’t part of Niall’s either. As the season pushes them both to the breaking point they’ll have to decide if they are each other’s anchor—or the weight that finally pulls them under.
