A reckless, obsessive soccer star. A forbidden affair that could ruin her career. The locker room has never been this steamy.
The Younger Man, an epic standalone forbidden age-gap sports romance, by New York Times bestselling author Karina Halle, is LIVE!
Starting over was her only option.
Forty-years old and still reeling from a public and painful divorce, Thalia Blackwood is looking for a fresh start, somewhere far away from her upside down life. When she’s offered a new job as the sports therapist for a football (soccer) team, she jumps at the chance. This is just what she needs to leave the heartbreak and shame of Manchester behind, trading it in for the warmth and hopeful vibrancy of Madrid.
He was her only desire.
Twenty-three year old Alejo Albarado is rising up the ranks in his career. As the charming forward for the Real Madrid team, Alejo’s life revolves around women, parties, and being a tabloid darling, that is until the new sports therapist joins the team.
Their passion could not be ignored.
What starts out as a strictly professional relationship between Thalia and the young Spanish player, slowly evolves into something more. Much more.
Their relationship was forbidden.
But their combustible chemistry and simmering sexual tension can only go so far—should Thalia give into Alejo’s advances, she’s at risk of not only losing her job, but succumbing to a much younger man will drag her through the spotlight again.
Alejo might be worth that risk.
Unless he breaks her heart in the process.
The Younger Man is a full-length standalone romance. Characters from Love, in English make a cameo in this book, however The Younger Man is intended to be read as a STANDALONE.

This was a refreshing read for me. I read a lot of sports romance but I can't remember reading one base on professional soccer. I love getting a bit of education along with my romance. This is a forbidden romance based on a hot shot soccer star and his physical therapist. Add in an almost 20 yr age difference and there is a whole lot that can go wrong with this relationship.
Thalia is cautious. Her heart has been bruised badly. She moves to a new team for a new start. Her eyes and her heart are drawn to the young Alejo even though she knows it's wrong. The two spend some time getting to know each other during Alejo's recovery therapy. Finally, their hearts win out and they become secretly inseparable.
Thalia still holds back so that her heart stays protected. Ultimately, the heart wins out. Great way to profess your undying love! Loved how this story rounded out. Loved the steamy moments between these two and well as the banter.
Great read!
