All Leah wants is to get to get back to her normal. After months of recovery from an ACL, she's finally ready to move forward, new season, new challenges, new chapter. What she doesn't expect is Cassie, her confident, sharp-tongued new teammate who's been holding her position and doesn't seem too happy to share the spotlight. Leah's determined to keep her head down and focus on football... until she meets Izzie. Warm, funny, and effortlessly charming, Izzie makes Leah forget about the tension on the field and the challenges on coming back from an injury. Their connection is instant, intense, easy, and something Leah can't bring herself to resist. But when Leah discovers that Izzie has her own secrets, Leah's whole life becomes a challenge. What began as something innocent turns into something impossible and yet, Leah can't walk away. Caught between loyalty, desire, and guilt, Leah finds herself in a love story that could break more than just hearts. Because what Leah didn't realise was the only challenge isn't just the ones fought on the pitch, but the one she finds her heart dealing with too. First upload: 21/10/2024 Re-write: 20/10/2025
