Synopsis

Famed goalkeeper Noah Wilson doesn't do relationships or complications. The grumpy single dad wants only to do his job and spend more time with his daughter — but his bachelor status has made finding the right nanny impossible, and with the World Cup looming and a string of fired nannies behind him, he has no choice but to hire the last person he wants in his orbit.

Carina Vu has worked multiple jobs and saved for years to fund her childhood dream of visiting Antarctica, and then an unexpected emergency wipes out her account. Back at square one and needing work fast, her best and only option is to nanny for Noah, the brooding athlete she is convinced hates her. The more time she spends with him and his daughter, the more cracks she sees in his gruff exterior.

The Keeper is the third book in Ana Huang's Gods of the Game series, a grumpy-sunshine single-dad and nanny romance set in the same football world as the earlier books. It is scheduled for release on 27 October 2026.
