For as long as she can remember, Rowan Ellis has lived in the shadow of her older sister-the Arsenal academy captain everyone believed would change the game. When her sister died unexpectedly, she left behind more than heartbreak. She left behind impossible expectations, painful memories... and Leah Williamson. Years later, Rowan finally earns her place in Arsenal's first team, determined to prove she's more than just the other Ellis. But every training session, every match, and every familiar face reminds her of the legacy she never asked to inherit. Especially Leah. Once her sister's closest friend, Leah has spent years carrying the weight of a promise she couldn't keep. Watching Rowan step into the same dressing room, wear the same badge, and chase the same dream is almost more than she can bear. So she does the only thing she knows how to do. She keeps Rowan at arm's length. But as grief slowly gives way to friendship, and friendship begins to feel like something neither of them expected, Leah must face the one thing she's been running from all along. Because loving Rowan doesn't mean letting go of the past. It means finding the courage to live beyond it.

Talia Blake was the girl everyone warned Leah Williamson about. Reckless on the pitch. Sharp with her words. Impossible to control. The media called her England's bad girl, the fans called her trouble, and most people decided who she was before she ever got the chance to prove them wrong. So when Talia is called into England camp, Leah expects chaos. She expects attitude. She expects arguments. She expects the headlines to be true. But the longer Leah is forced to spend around her, the harder it becomes to ignore the cracks beneath Talia's perfect image. The unread messages she hides too quickly. The way her smile disappears when her phone rings. The tired eyes behind the sharp eyeliner. The fear she covers with fire. Talia Blake is not just difficult. She is hurting. And as England camp pulls them closer, Leah begins to realise that the girl everyone calls trouble might be the one person who has never been protected enough to feel safe. Talia is fire to the world. But to Leah, she might just be fragile.
