Penalty for Love
Children & Young Adult, Young Adult, YA Age 12+, YA Love / Romance
Paula is furious. The move to Hamburg is just as bad as she’d expected: getting to school is a problem, she doesn’t really like the teachers, and the other girls are typical big city snobs. And to make matters worse, in her hometown, her best friends are having a great time playing in the best handball team ever. The whole situation is just too awful to contemplate.
But then a new P.E. teacher comes to the school: Florian Hoffmann, who used to be Paula’s favourite handball player in the national league. All the girls fall in love with him on the spot. And then he sets up a school handball team as well…
