Book excerpt: There are countless sports stories and books about how to coach and how to lead. Thank You, Coach is not one of them. Thank You, Coach is a story of the lasting impact great coaching and leadership can have on a person and is told in a sequence of charismatic and heartwarming stories by someone who learned from experience. As a young offensive lineman, author Angus Reid struggled to make it at the professional football level until a full coaching change placed him in the ever-capable hands of Coach Dan Dorazio. What occurred over their 11-year player/coach relationship helped him initially excel on the field as well as later in life. Thank You, Coach is so much more than a sports story. It is a testament to the importance of great coaching and the immeasurable value mentorship can have on a person. It is also a reminder to every coach, teacher, and leader that their instruction extends beyond this moment and can impact how people choose to live their lives in the years to come.

Brystone Springs University, where I’ve taken a coaching job, is where the trouble begins. I didn’t know that one of the team's All-Stars is the man I had a mind-blowing one-night stand with when I first got back to town. Now, I have to see him every damn day. Kody Remington. He’s stubborn, sassy, and intoxicating as hell. His looks and memories of that night haunt me every waking and sleeping moment.

One day, everything changes. Suddenly, I don’t give a damn about the consequences. I know we both need each other. What I don’t know is if our intense feelings for one another are strong enough to save us both from forces I don’t even understand.
