But old habits, temptations, and unresolved pain threaten to derail everything. Then he meets Shovanna Brown-quiet, grounded, and unlike any girl he's ever known. She sees the real him, not just the footballer or the bad boy in training. With her, he begins to question who he is and who he wants to be. Can Romario rise above the chaos, or will he throw away his shot before the final whistle blows? A powerful coming-of-age story about love, loyalty, and chasing your dreams, set against the backdrop of inner-city Jamaica.

"Sir why are you always so interested in what I'm doing...Dont you have other students to tend to?" Wynter asked as she clinged to the books in her hands, Mr. Raines chuckled as his eyes scanned his favorite student. It was never his plan to fall for her. In fact he had no intention of falling for any woman anytime soon; due to him having his fair share of them all. In other words he didn't want anything that he would have to commit to, right now that is... Somehow as soon as Wynter stepped into his classroom she changed his mind by just a simple gesture. How could I fold so easily? he thought... "Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, and therefore is winged Cupid painted blind." He thinks out loud with a smirk on his face. Wynter furrows her brows in confusion as she listens to the words that sound like a foreign language to her ears. She tilts her head looking at him, thats when he chuckles, and says, " Find out what that means by the next class, then yuh nah guh be suh confused." For awhile she was silent, as her eyes scanned him, then she replied, "Yes Mr Raines." ---------------------- A Jamaican love tale about a lecturer falling for his student...
