About this audiobook
"Home Field Advantage has it all. A swoony romance, characters you will be cheering for from start to finish, and a plot that sucks you in from the very first page. An instant favorite, perfectly capturing the power in being true to yourself and fighting for what is right." - Rachael Lippincott, #1 New York Times bestselling coauthor of Five Feet Apart and She Gets the Girl
Amber McCloud’s dream is to become cheer captain at the end of the year, but it’s an extra-tall order to be joyful and spirited when the quarterback of your team has been killed in a car accident. For both the team and the squad, watching Robbie get replaced by newcomer Jack Walsh is brutal. And when it turns out Jack is actually short for Jaclyn, all hell breaks loose.
The players refuse to be led by a girl, the cheerleaders are mad about the changes to their traditions, and the fact that Robbie’s been not only replaced but outshined by a QB who wears a sports bra has more than a few Atherton Alligators in a rage. Amber tries for some semblance of unity, but it quickly becomes clear that she's only got a future on the squad and with her friends if she helps them take Jack down.
Just one problem: Amber and Jack are falling for each other, and if Amber can't stand up for Jack and figure out how to get everyone to fall in line, her dream may come at the cost of her heart.
Dahlia Adler's Home Field Advantage is a sparkling romance about fighting for what - or who - you truly want.
Editor's Note
Tender and funny…
Outrage abounds at a Florida high school when a girl joins the football team as the new quarterback. Cheerleader Amber is ready to root for Jaclyn — “Jack” — like any other player, but she risks social ostracization by doing so. Things get a lot more complicated when Amber and Jack start to fall for each other. Adler’s queer YA romance is tender and funny, remaining hopeful even as she addresses the misogyny and discrimination many teenagers face while finding their identities.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It was a fun ride throughout. I'll admit, it was hard dealing with the blatant homophobia throughout, but it just made the victories over it that much sweeter.
