Amber McCloud’s dream is to become cheer captain at the end of the year, but it’s an extra-tall order to be joyful and spirited when the quarterback of your team has been killed in a car accident. For both the team and the squad, watching Robbie get replaced by newcomer Jack Walsh is brutal. And when it turns out Jack is actually short for Jaclyn, all hell breaks loose.

The players refuse to be led by a girl, the cheerleaders are mad about the changes to their traditions, and the fact that Robbie’s been not only replaced but outshined by a QB who wears a sports bra has more than a few Atherton Alligators in a rage. Amber tries for some semblance of unity, but it quickly becomes clear that she's only got a future on the squad and with her friends if she helps them take Jack down.

Just one problem: Amber and Jack are falling for each other, and if Amber can't stand up for Jack and figure out how to get everyone to fall in line, her dream may come at the cost of her heart.

Dahlia Adler's Home Field Advantage is a sparkling romance about fighting for what—or who—you truly want.

Better then expected

Lori top noche performance of course and the writing was incredible! Such a great and well written story !

Beards

High school can be hard enough without coming out. Even if you are a popular cheerleader or a football player. so they become beards for each other.

Then there is the so-called good Christian girl, who isn't so good, as she becomes more mean girl than christ-like.

This is the cutest book in the world.

I mean, seriously. It is just so sweet, even while giving an honest look at all of the hardships that queer kids face, especially in places that aren't the most progressive/friendly. The writing is so fresh and so gloriously perfect, Dahlia hits the voice just right. It makes my heart want to scream and soar. I graduated from high school in 2009 and so many of us queer kids never came out until after we graduated. But it's nice to see that arc bending slowly, to see pride take a place in the public world.

I wish this book would be added to every high school curriculum. It's that necessary.

Brave characters!

I loved this because of the great representation of queer identities and the story is definitely worth a listen. It is so relatable as someone who lives in an area that is not diverse or welcoming. The bravery of the characters is very heartwarming!

Amazing narration

Absolutely loved the book and the narrator! Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a good queer love story.
