The Keeper and I
(2023)(The second book in the Stanmore FC Soulmates series)
A novel by Kelsey Painter
Jordan Frawley is good at three things: goalkeeping, art, and being alone.
After seeing his parents’ marriage fall apart and the nastiness that followed, he’s happy to stick to what he knows. Also, he doesn’t have to explain why all his portraits are of the same woman: not an ex or a lover, just the person that comes to mind when he thinks about beauty. He’s seen her face in his mind since he was a boy, but never in real life.
Until he sees her on Instagram, of all places.
Laci Miller is a confident, sweet, plus-size model who—despite her beauty—has never had a real relationship. She does, however, have a stalker, who follows her home after a photoshoot.
So, she enlists the help of Jordan Frawley, the stoic, Scottish goalkeeper whom she can’t seem to keep out of her dreams.
To keep her safe, he’ll pretend to be her boyfriend. It’s fake. It’s temporary. What could go wrong? And, besides, Laci is moving to the States soon. It’s the perfect solution.
But feelings of familiarity bloom between them. They each give the other something they’ve never felt before, especially after a trip to her parents’ estate home, where they’re haunted by mysterious visions and dreams.
Will Laci find something in Jordan beyond what they show the cameras? Can Jordan keep her safe and save his heart?
