What happens after the final whistle? The Off the Pitch short story collection brings together three previously published shorts from Charlie Novak’s Greenwich Athletic world, along with a brand new finale for all the couples. Hat Trick Three goals. One sexy celebration. When Christian nets an elusive hat-trick during a home game, David decides he needs to show his boyfriend exactly how proud he is of his achievement. Best read after Breakaway. Silverware Valentine's Day is full of surprises. Kit and Hugo might have said no gifts, but that doesn't mean they'll follow their own rule. Besides, some things don’t count as presents. Best read after Extra Time. International Break Time for a scorching summer getaway. While enjoying a well-earned pre-season break, Jordan decides it is the perfect time to ask Félix a probing question, and he's happy to offer a reward for the answer. Best read after Final Score. Full Time One final chapter, eight years later. Everything is changing: kids, new jobs, and retirement are all part of the scene now. But change isn’t a bad thing, especially when you’ve got a World Cup win to celebrate. Best read last. All these stories contain the character’s happily ever afters and spoilers for each novel. This collection is not intended to be read as a standalone.

Charlie lives in England with her husband and a dachshund named Biscuit. She spends most of her days wrangling other people’s words in her day job and then trying to force her own onto the page in the evening. She loves cute stories with a healthy dollop of fluff, plenty of delicious sex, and happily ever afters – because the world needs more of them. Charlie also believes that love comes in all shapes and sizes. Charlie has very little spare time, but what she does have she fills with cooking, pole-dancing, reading and ice-hockey. She also thinks that everyone should have at least one favourite dinosaur…
