Hayley Russo has always been strong or at least, she told herself she was. But when her best friend Olivia dies in a single, unthinkable moment, the world she knew crumbles. Now, haunted by guilt, grief, and memories she can't escape, Hayley retreats from life, sleeping on the couch, counting, tapping, and shutting everyone out even her sister Alessia, the only person who refuses to leave her alone. At home, every sound, every object, every memory becomes a trap. The bedroom she once shared with laughter now feels like a battlefield. Alessia tries to reach her, to pull her back from the spiral but Hayley's walls are high, and her anger sharp. One wrong word, one accidental touch, and she snaps, lashing out at the world she's convinced she has no place in. But life moves forward, whether she's ready or not. A new season, a new team, and the presence of someone who refuses to push, someone who sees the girl behind the anger and fear who slowly challenge the walls she's built. Can Hayley face the past, confront the shadows in the hallway, and find a way back to herself? Or will she let guilt and grief define every step of her future?

Leah Williamson is used to pressure. As the captain of the Lionesses, she knows how to carry the weight of a nation on her shoulders. But nothing prepares her for a cold Tuesday night in London. While out with teammates, a flash of white in a dark alleyway catches her eye. There, tucked behind a dumpster, lies five-year-old Emma. She is pale, starving, and-according to the government-she doesn't exist. With no birth certificate, no parents, and no history, Emma is a ghost in the system. Leah was supposed to be focusing on the upcoming season, but suddenly, the game doesn't matter. From hospital vigils to legal battles against a system that wants to put Emma in a cold institution, Leah decides to take the biggest risk of her life. She doesn't just want to save the girl; she wants to give her a home. But can a world-famous athlete provide the stability a "ghost" needs to finally be seen?

Not many people understood 12 year old Jessica, as a person and an individual. That doesn't include, however, her older sister, who Jessica adores with everything in her. So, as her older sister grows, and life changes in many unexpected ways, how does Jessica find herself coping? More importantly, how does Jessica adapt to being the younger sister of massive footballing star, Leah Williamson?

Alessia Russo knows the golden rule of Lioness camp: don't fall for the captain. Too late. Ever since that first call-up, Arsenal's golden girl Leah Williamson has had Alessia flustered, flattered, and totally floored - not that Leah has a clue. Calm, collected, and totally out of her league, Leah is everything Alessia's not: composed, commanding... and completely off-limits. Especially now. With a headline-making transfer from Manchester United to Arsenal looming, Alessia's about to become Leah's teammate. And if crushing on your national team captain is bad, pining for your club captain is basically career suicide. At least Ella Toone thinks it's hilarious. As training intensifies and lines blur between banter and something softer, Alessia must decide whether staying quiet is safer - or if risking it all for the one girl who makes her heart race might just be the best goal she's ever scored.
