Overview
This two-book paperback collection brings together The Long Game and The Fiancé Dilemma, the first two entries in Elena Armas's Long Game series set in the fictional town of Green Oak. The Long Game follows Adalyn Reyes, a driven sports executive who returns home to rebuild a struggling youth soccer club and clashes with a retired professional goalkeeper. The Fiancé Dilemma centers on Josie Moore, whose messy romantic past collides with a public engagement scandal, forcing an unlikely arrangement with newcomer Matthew Flanagan. Together, these witty, character-driven romances offer slow-burn tension, sharp banter, and small-town charm.
About the Books
Elena Armas built a devoted following with The Spanish Love Deception, and this collection shows why readers keep returning to her voice: banter that lands, chemistry that simmers, and heroines who feel real. The Long Game opens the Long Game series in Green Oak, a small town whose struggling youth soccer club needs saving. Adalyn Reyes, a sharp and ambitious sports executive with something to prove after a viral misstep, takes the job expecting an easy fix. What she gets instead is a roster of scrappy young players and Cameron Caldani, a retired star goalkeeper whose easy confidence throws off her plans. Their rivalry-turned-partnership plays out with humor, mutual respect, and slow-burn tension that rewards patient readers. The Fiancé Dilemma picks up the Green Oak thread with Josie Moore, whose romantic history reads like a highlight reel of near-misses and calculated caution. When a family scandal puts her private life under a public microscope, Josie needs a solution fast and finds one in Matthew Flanagan, a grounded newcomer with no interest in playing games. Their fake-dating arrangement, born out of necessity, quickly becomes something neither of them expected. Both novels share the same warm, witty tone, a commitment to earned emotional payoffs, and a recurring cast that makes Green Oak feel like a real place worth visiting twice. Readers who enjoy contemporary romance built on banter, gradual trust-building, and satisfying happily-ever-afters will find both books deliver, making this a natural set to read back to back.
