WICKET MAIDEN is a groundbreaking romantic comedy set in the world of women’s cricket.
It’s the start of a new season for professional women’s cricket team The Scorpions.
Acclaimed batter Ellie, 32, is returning to the game after a long injury, determined to regain her form and her place in the England squad. This is her last chance, and she won’t let anything stand in her way.
Cricket fan Adam, 34, an artist and photographer, has followed Ellie and the team through highs and lows. He’s drawn to her talent, athleticism and public persona - but is content to be a face in the crowd, cheering her on. He’d never date a famous person, anyway.
When events on and off the pitch bring Ellie and Adam together, friendship blossoms, and their careers initially soar. Yet, with romance in the air, Ellie loses focus, jeopardising her dream.
What’s more important to them both - love, or cricket?
“Are you ready to dive into a heartwarming sports romantic comedy that will leave you cheering for love and cricket in equal measure? With its unique blend of romance, humour, and the exciting world of women’s cricket, this novel promises to be a delightful and uplifting read that will capture your heart from the very first page.”
“A fun 'will they won’t they' kind of romance novel. I really enjoyed being immersed into the world of women’s cricket. It’s an unusual backdrop but Harrison really made it work. Harrison is going on my list of rom-com writers – Wicket Maiden is a fab read and you don’t need to be a cricket fan to enjoy it!”
“I really enjoyed the storyline and the writing style. The two main characters Ellie and Adam were brilliant and I couldn’t help but like them - they click straight away.”
“It’s a lovely, very considerately done read which, as well as featuring a gentle and sweetly awkward romance. The cricket is also genuinely immersive and exciting.”
