About this listen

One football goddess. One future Queen. One love that could change the game.

Princess Victoria has perfected the royal playbook: calculated smile, convenient boyfriend, impeccable press. But behind the tiara ticks a heart that's tired of playing by the rules.

Enter Ashleigh Woods: England's football captain, media darling, and living proof that authenticity scores every time. When Victoria pins an MBE on Ash's lapel, the instant chemistry jolts both their worlds.

Stolen glances become secret meetings. Private texts become tabloid gold. And suddenly, Victoria's tearing up her royal rulebook for a woman who makes her feel like more than her title. Ash has faced down penalty shootouts in European Cup finals, but winning Victoria's heart? That's the match of her life.

When their romance hits the headlines, it's game on: bow to tradition, or fight for a love that could change history. Victoria's got a crown to inherit. Ash has a legacy to defend. Neither planned to start a revolution, but when destiny meets desire, sometimes you have to risk it all to win.

Get ready for Clare Lydon's latest game-changer: a royal romance that proves some matches are worth breaking every rule for.

Excellent and believable story, the twists turns and doubts pulling you through to a beautiful ending.

Just Brilliant

A delightful romantic comedy with great characters, the princess and the footballer, an entertaining storyline with a little gentle angst, some heat and a shout out loud ending. Loved it. Narration is excellent, easy to listen to with a decent range. Highly recommended.

Delightful romantic comedy

A nice easy listen with good characters and a believable story considering the trope. Not set in a made up European kingdom where everyone speaks English like a Hallmark movie (most off-putting)
Recommended.

Good story and narrator

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
A cute story with a good moral. A bit sensationalistic, silly and not very realistic but with a clear message and a sweet story, very enjoyable.

Feel-good fiction

I always enjoy a sports focused storyline and this was no exception. A good balance of romance and drama and likeable characters.

Football focus

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
