Description

For Morrigan Twine, life revolves around three things: football, winning, and women. Their order of importance might change throughout the day, but playing for a world-famous college team has always let her pursue all three without compromise. In Scissor Kick, football is more than a matter of life and death—and Morrigan has every reason to take it seriously. Then a brutal injury threatens her place in the world. This isn’t a story about a long, painful recovery, though: just four months later, she’s back, seemingly thanks to a miracle. How did she manage such an extraordinary return? That’s a question best left unasked. With her recovery behind her, Morrigan should be free to slip back into her old life as if nothing happened. But returning to the pitch doesn’t necessarily mean everything is back to normal. A bargain has been made, and Morrigan may need to be very careful about what she bargained for.
