"A poignant story that deftly shows managing hard emotions while also displaying love, friendship, teamwork and hope."
More challenges for Riley on and off the pitch in this nail biting sequel. It’s the start of a new season for Riley and the Highfield flyers. With another shot at the league after last year’s painful loss, changes in school and the grief of his mum’s terminal cancer diagnosis, Riley is exhausted.
When bad news arrives Rile must once more show his strength of character in the darkest times, with his team there to offer support and a moment of escape. I found the first book in this series, Life of Riley - Unbreakable both heartbreaking and heart warming and this new book is no different. With the highs and lows of the football team and talent scouts offering action for sports fans this book also tenderly deals with loss, anxiety and grief.
Riley’s relationship with Miss Robinson is a lovely and heartfelt highlight as Riley tries to make his mum proud and carry on while managing his emotions. A poignant story that deftly shows managing hard emotions while also displaying love, friendship, teamwork and hope.
