Wanting a big change after a break up, Lucas Robinson leaves Australia to play for a newly established rugby team in Ireland. While he’s waiting for his new home to be built, he becomes temporary flatmates with Bridget O’Leary—his mate’s sister he was warned to stay away from.

After an amazing season, his immigration status is hanging in the balance, and they agree to a contract marriage to grant him citizenship. Except, both Lucas and Bridget have unresolved feelings for each other, complicating their friendship and his relationship with her brother.

With everything out in the open, Lucas finally has the woman he’s always wanted. But when has a love story ever been that easy?

Rugby romcom

What is not to like about a very flirty rugby player and his friendship with a single mom.
Lucas and Bridget’s story is something else, they start as friend but a contract marriage is something they agree to help his immigration status.
But soon the lines get blurry and other people’s opinions get in the way. Will they give the relationship a chance or lose everything they’ve worked for.

Who couldn’t love these two!
