**[BUY THE BOOK HERE](https://backstorybookshop.shop/product/two-left-feet/)** Love, laughter, and happily-ever-afters! Our Romantic Comedy Book Club is a celebration of witty banter, swoon-worthy moments, and feel-good stories that leave you smiling. **This month we have a special author visit! Kallie Emblidge with her debut romance *Two Left Feet*** **Kallie Emblidge** works for The Washington Post and is a former co-chair of the paper's union. She lives and writes in New York City. Two Left Feet is her first novel, but she's been a football fan forever. *A Premier League football star must defend his roster spot—and his heart—when a threateningly talented and handsome midfielder joins his team in this utterly charming debut romance, a profound love letter to the world’s most popular sport.* Oliver Harris is football royalty in London. Ordinarily the star of the Camden Roses is calm, cool, and collected, keeping his club relevant with his prowess in the midfield and his mighty left foot. But this season, the threats abound: There’s Camden’s management to contend with—complete with a prickly new Dutch coach, eager for better results—and a midseason injury, which sidelines him when his team needs him most. When a recruit is called up to fill in, Oliver fears he’ll be replaced. If he can mentor this younger talent, then they might just have a chance at winning, together. After a string of lackluster performances in his native Spain, Leonardo Davies-Villanueva is looking for one last shot with the club he always dreamed of, where he once played in the youth academy. Oliver immediately finds confident, eager Leo irritating. He can barely go through the motions, let alone coach him, without outright hostility. When he comes to admire Leo’s skill and warms to his humor and energy, though, he begins to see Leo as a friend—and then, to his mounting horror, as something more. Leo craves Oliver’s attention and partnership; Oliver can’t afford to fall in love with his teammate. He’s always kept a tight lid on his sexuality in a league that’s never had a player come out. As the season heats up, a lot more than football hangs in the balance. Can Oliver—and Leo—win when it counts most? “An exuberant heart-squeeze of a book . . . *Two Left Feet* is the kind of joyful, hopeful story the romance genre was made for.”—Rachel Lynn Solomon, author of What Happens in Amsterdam **Instructions** 1. Swing by the shop to pick up a copy of your book 2. Read it 3. Come discuss it

Just ask the thousands of people that have met at our events and had successful relationships and marriages. **WHAT DOES IT COST?** We put a lot of time and effort into creating the best singles events possible, so we collect a fee for our hard work. Our events are an excellent value at about $3 per introduction. Get your ticket for the best singles event in town. **NOTE FOR NEWCOMERS:** We post our events on various platforms.

What’s better than summiting a mountain with your favorite hiking group? Doing it with two hiking groups! Late Morning Hikers and Washington Outdoor Adventures are combining forces on a hike up Shenandoah’s scenic Hogback Mountain. This hike features sweeping views of the Shenandoah Valley and moderately strenuous elevation. We’ll approach the summit from two directions and meet at the top for a shared lunch break and to enjoy the view. From there, folks can make it an out-and-back to return to their cars, or continue straight and carpool back with a new group. **Here’s how it will work:** Both groups will meet at the Vienna metro station, which has free parking, and divide up to carpool to two starting points (Neighbor Mountain Access Trail or Appalachian National Scenic Trail Parking – see locations below). We’ll have roughly equal numbers of hikers go to each starting point, and we won’t be strictly divided between LMH/WOA. After we meet for lunch, hikers can head back the way they came or continue along the trail. Hike leaders will return to their cars to shuttle folks as needed. After, we will meet up at Veditz in Sperryville for food and beverages. **🕒 Estimated hike time: \~6–7 hours at a moderate group pace** **📍Day of the Event:** * Meet at the Vienna Metro Parking Area * 🕙 Arrival: 8:00 AM 🚗 Departure: 8:15 AM * We’ll organize carpools on-site or in advance via Meetup comments. * 🚙 Estimated drive time: 1 hr 30 mins. **✅What to Bring:** * 💧2–3 liters of water * ⚡Electrolytes (Gatorade, Powerade, etc.) * 🍫Snacks * 📸Camera * 🥾Comfortable hiking shoes * 🧥Weather-appropriate layers **🚗 Carpool & Parking Info:** * 💰Suggested carpool fee: $15.00/person * 💵Park Entrance fee: $30/vehicle (Free with Shenandoah or America The Beautiful Park Passes) * 👥Group size limit: 15 members. * **Note: Please sign up only once if you are a member of both Meetup groups!** 📍Directions: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/1DPjNvzFNx9cU4nk6](https://maps.app.goo.gl/1DPjNvzFNx9cU4nk6) 🌧️ The event will be canceled in case of poor weather **🗺️Trail & Weather:** 🗺️Map: [[https://www.alltrails.com/explore/custom-routes/lmh-woa-combined-day-hike-d6bc793?u=i&sh=lfbxds](https://www.alltrails.com/explore/custom-routes/lmh-woa-combined-day-hike-d6bc793?u=i&sh=lfbxds) ](https://www.alltrails.com/explore/custom-routes/lmh-woa-combined-day-hike-d6bc793?u=i&sh=lfbxds) 🌤️Forecast: [[https://www.wunderground.com/weather/us/va/sperryville](https://www.wunderground.com/weather/us/va/sperryville) ](https://www.wunderground.com/weather/us/va/sperryville) **🍻Post-Hike Social:** After the hike, we’ll head to [Veditz and Company Brewery](https://veditzandcompany.com/).

BACKGROUND INFO ABOUT LMH: Please remember that this group is an informal group of friends and volunteers inititiating trips under the common adventurer model ([http://www.ronwatters.com/CADefine.htm](http://www.ronwatters.com/CADefine.html)). We do expect our members to be familiar with the best practices of hiking. This is not a group for first time hikers and is NOT a group for those seeking hiking instruction. We are also not professionals, nor are we trained hike leaders, nor do we scout out hikes. We plan hikes for fun. You are responsible for your own welfare and safety at all LMH events. Be careful to choose hikes only within your own physical abilities and hiking knowledge; take maps, suitable clothing, provisions (at least two liters of water plus any food or medical supplies you might require) and equipment, and act responsibly and safely at all times. Act responsibly and safely: if you ever believe you may be lost, follow the advice of the US Forest Service ([https://www.fs.fed.us/visit/know-before-you-go/if-you-get-lost](https://www.fs.fed.us/visit/know-before-you-go/if-you-get-lost)) LMH organizers and members shall not be liable for any injuries, loss or damage to persons or property, direct or consequential, arising out of any aspect of LMH activities.
