If you've ever had a steamy one-night stand with a British football player and then find yourself pregnant with his baby, you know how Lia Ward feels.To be fair, Lia didn't know who Jude McAllister was when they met.
Studying abroad for her master's program, all she knows is that she's a little lonely and he's very charming, even as they have an epically sexy argument about which type of football is superior.
In Jude's mind, shagging the feisty American girl is exactly what he needs. He’s been fighting the clock of his long-standing football career and the younger players primed to take his position. Proving that he can feel like his old self again—something he's been trying to do with everyone in his life—should be easier after blowing off steam with Lia.
But oh baby, when a plus sign pops up on Lia's pregnancy test, that 'one night' becomes a whole lot more.
Now Lia and Jude have to navigate their impossible-to-ignore chemistry, and prepare for the parenting game, something neither of them know how to play.
"All the English countryside stars for this awesomeness. It’s getting one of my rare 6 stars...I’ve read over 400 books this year and have only given 8 x 6 stars so that tells you just how much I loved this book!!" - Claypot Reads
"Karla Sorensen nailed the angsty and steamy feels once again in Floored. This unique sports romance was full of intense emotions and all consuming romance goodness. She never fails to bring out the best and the worst in me with her brilliant writing." (PP’s Bookshelf)
“Karla Sorensen delivers on all the things I love the best: the chemistry, the banter, the sweet steady burn that holds my heart in thrall and keeps my greedy little reader heart hungry for more. Floored delivered on all those things and more!” (Jennifer, Goodreads Review)
Well, let’s see ... I’m a wife and a mother. If the things that I write bring a smile to someone's face, then I've done my job. I am obsessed with Outlander (both the books and the show). I’m almost exclusively a romance reader, which means some people will never consider me a literary snob. If I could meet one historical figure, it would be Jane Austen. I received my Bachelors in Public Relations and worked in health care marketing before I had my babies. I hate Twitter. I do it, but I hate it. Also, if you want to get on my good side, bring me wine and I'll love you forever.

This is about the third Ward sister, Lia. It easily stands alone but this family has really grown so it might get confusing with all the different sisters and their guys if you have not read this series yet. ,
The original series starts with Logan Ward and he meets his hot neighbor, Paige and a romance ensues. Logan is the older brother and guardian to four of his half sisters of which two are twins. The first book in the series features Molly with Noah, her ex neighbor. Book 2 features Claire, who is Lia's twin sister with Lia's best guy friends half brother. And in this book we get Lia's adventures when she takes off for England to study under a professor at Oxford College.
Her first night in town she is feeling lonely and goes to a bar and there she meets Jude. They have a one night stand and as you know she ends up pregnant. Jude and Lia are really wonderful characters. They both really like each other and are upstanding members of their family and community. As they start getting to know each other they are great dealing in the now but they struggle talking about their pasts and dealing with the details of their future. They both have very painful pasts and they both have to grow up fast and deal with their pasts before they can face their future.
I LOVED Jude, he is a hot British guy but he also has some issues but I loved how he treated Lia. Lia has a wonderful family life in the now but she also has some issues from her past she needs to deal with. This story was a wonderful coming of age and growing up story. Its very intense but I absolutely adored it,
