Publisher Description
No one escapes the favelas without retaliation.
Former international futbol star Ronaldo Cevere has had one mission on his mind for the last twenty years— finish what his murdered sister started. His plans to change the face of women's rights in Brazil via futbol become a reality following a national scandal. However, attempting to change the life of society outcasts like Daniela Gomes paints a target over his still-bleeding heart. The girls deserve the chance he once had—the chance he wished his sister had before she was gunned down in the very streets these girls live in.
But well-armed forces won't let them go without a fight and aren't afraid to draw blood.

Highly recommend!
This is my first of Gill’s books, but it definitely won’t be the last! I felt like I was actually in the streets of Rio, experiencing the joys and pains of the characters. A refreshing, clean, inspiring story which I couldn’t put down.
Beautiful story with hope
Finally a book that is more than just the run of mill American characters. I love the international settings and characters Gill writes. Awesome story that made me cry.
