The One & Only

The One & Only Synopsis

Shea Rigsby is content enough with her life in the small town of Walker, Texas. She has her dream fangirl job working for Walker's football team, a satisfactory-enough relationship with her boyfriend, and even if maybe she's got the sneaking feeling life is passing her by, she's not quite confident enough to do anything about it. But when the mother of Lucy, Shea's best friend, dies suddenly everything changes.

Lucy's father, now a widower, is the town's charismatic football coach, Clive Carr, and Shea's hero since she was a young girl. Coach Carr is now alone as he and Shea grow closer than ever, Shea realises she can't help how she feels ...for the father of her best friend, who's grieving his wife. Thoughtful, intense and brilliantly observed, THE ONE & ONLY is a luminous novel about finding your passion and, most of all, believing in something amazing for yourself: it's the one and only thing that makes life worth living.
