In Rosario, Argentina, Camila Hassan lives a double life. 
 
At home, she is a careful daughter, living within her motherhsquo;s narrow expectations, in her rising-soccer-star brotherlsquo;s shadow, and under the abusive rule of her short-tempered father. 
 
On the field, she is La Furia, a powerhouse of skill and talent. When her team qualifies for the South American tournament, Camila gets the chance to see just how far those talents can take her. In her wildest dreams, shessquo;d get an athletic scholarship to a North American university.
 
But the path ahead isn squo;t easy. Her parents donesquo;t know about her passion. They wouldnmsquo;t allow a girl to play fuacute;tbol dash; and she needs their permission to go any farther. And the boy she once loved is back in town. Since he left, Diego has become an international star, playing in Italy for the renowned team Juventus. Camila doesn!squo;t have time to be distracted by her feelings for him. Things arenNsquo;t the same as when he left: she has her own passions and ambitions now, and La Furia cannot be denied. As her life becomes more complicated, Camila is forced to face her secrets and make her way in a world with no place for the dreams and ambition of a girl like her.
 
Filled with authentic details and the textures of day-to-day life in Argentina, heart-soaring romance, and breathless action on the pitch, Furia is the story of a girl?squo;s journey to make her life her own.
