"Now, if you want to even survive a millisecond in that arena, you need to pay attention," Haymitch Abernathy mutters. He jerks his chin toward a girl near the weapon racks. "Ivory Rose. District 4. Victor of the Sixty-Eighth Hunger Games." Katniss expects someone loud. Another Career. Another arrogant victor draped in Capitol beauty. Instead, Ivy Rose stands perfectly still. Dark green fabric wraps around her arms like vines, and there's something unsettling about the calm expression on her face. Not cold exactly. Controlled. "Capitol called her the Thorned Rose," Haymitch says. "Mostly because they needed something pretty to distract people from what she actually did in that arena." Peeta glances over. "Which was?" Haymitch lets out a dry laugh. "She poisoned half her competition before the bloodbath even ended." - (Finnick Odair x OC) Enemies to lovers

"she's behind the camera. he's stealing her focus." Lauren Vavasis has always been surrounded by the ocean and the game. born and raised in Florida, she splits her time between the University of South Florida softball field and the gulf coast shoreline-studying marine biology by day, framing sunsets and fastballs through her camera lens by night. as USF's starting second baseman and catcher, she's disciplined, creative, and quietly competitive-a girl who sees the world in snapshots and stolen bases. her older brother, however, lives and breathes chaos. as the head coach of the Party Animals, the Savannah Bananas' wild, show-stealing rivals, he's loud, unpredictable, and fiercely protective. especially, when it comes to his little sister. so when he lands Lauren a summer internship as the team's official photographer, he assumes she'll stay behind the lens, focused on her work. but the moment Bronson "Bronny" Balholm, the Party Animals' charismatic catcher, steps into frame, everything changes. he's confident, charming, and entirely off-limits. as the season unfolds, boundaries blur between what's professional and what feels impossible to ignore. and when the team lights dim and the crowds go home, Lauren begins to wonder if she's photographing the story or living it. now caught between loyalty and longing, she must decide whether to protect her brother's trust or take a chance on something real-even if it means letting herself be the one caught this time. because in The Coach's Sister, sometimes the best stories happen behind the camera... and the hardest hearts to capture are your own. NOTE: this story is based in Lauren's POV. i don't know if vava has a sister or not, but lets just say that he does in this story.

Madison Turner's life revolves around the chaotic, rewarding world of being a veterinary technician, leaving very little room for a dating life-or sports. When a coworker coaxes her into attending a high-energy Party Animals baseball game against their rivals, the Savannah Bananas, Madi expects nothing more than a loud night out. Instead, a post-game meet-and-greet introduces her to Mark Smith, the team's charismatic Designated Runner known for his electric speed, bold bandana, and trademark eye black. When the crowds fade and the music drops, a quiet, unexpected conversation sparks between the vet tech and the ballplayer. What starts as a shared phone number quickly grows into a sweet, slow-burn romance as Mark navigates the loud stadium lights and Madi teaches him to slow down for the things that matter most off the diamond.

Alli thought heartbreak was something she'd survived once-until the truth shattered her world again. One night. One video. One betrayal she never saw coming. Now the wedding is off, the ring is gone, and the girl who once believed in forever is learning how to live without the boy she thought she'd marry. KJ would do anything to fix what he broke. But love isn't a game you can win with grand slams and charm, and Alli isn't the same girl who once fell for him under stadium lights. This time, apologies aren't enough. This time, he has to rebuild trust he didn't even know he'd lost. Their love changed them. Their mistakes destroyed them. Their redemption might save them-if they can survive what comes after the fallout. A story of second chances, brutal honesty, messy healing, and the kind of love that doesn't disappear just because it breaks. Some promises are broken. Some promises are kept. And some... were meant for forever & always.

They survived the heartbreak. They chose each other. She said yes. But happily-ever-after doesn't start at the proposal-it's only the beginning. KJ is no longer just the cocky third baseman of Banana Ball. He's a New York Yankee now-baseball's golden boy, a rising star whose name fills headlines and whose face is everywhere the cameras turn. With every home run, every interview, every spotlight shining brighter, his world only expands. For Alli, life used to be simple: stay behind the camera, keep her guard up, never let anyone too close. But now? She's the fiancée of baseball's golden boy, dissected by millions, living under the weight of a spotlight she never asked for. And when someone from her past resurfaces, threatening to unravel everything she's built, Alli is forced to confront the question that terrifies her most: Is this really the life she wants? Because fame. Distance. Secrets. Lies. They don't just test love. They can break it.

KJ "Kyle" Jackson is one of the most talked-about stars on the Savannah Bananas, a viral sensation on and off the field. Girls love his swing, swagger, and signature eye black-but behind the charm, he's just a guy who loves the game. Cassidy Miller is a powerhouse for Georgia University's softball team-confident, focused, and the reigning queen of home runs. She's not chasing clout, just chasing greatness. But when ESPN posts a clip of her walk-off grand slam with a slow-mo bat flip, it explodes online-and lands on KJ's For You Page. Intrigued and impressed, KJ hits follow without thinking. What starts as a casual double tap becomes something neither of them expected-a connection built on late-night batting cage chats, dugout banter, and the realization that maybe, just maybe, they've both finally met their match.

Alli had one rule: never fall for a baseball player-especially not one who flirts like it's his job and kisses like he invented it. At twenty years old, Alli's the new social media manager for the Savannah Bananas, a viral baseball team best known for their dancing, stunts, and complete disregard for normal. She's smart, sarcastic, and absolutely not here to make friends-especially not the cocky third baseman who makes her heart stutter and her blood boil in equal measure. Enter KJ Jackson. Six-foot-three of tattoos, swagger, and sin, with a roster full of girls and zero interest in commitment. He's Banana Ball's golden boy-cocky, charming, and dangerously hot. Alli's just the new challenge. A pretty face to tease. A no-strings, off-limits distraction. Until suddenly... she's not. What starts as a flirtationship quickly spirals into stolen moments, late-night confessions, accidental intimacy, and a kiss that changes everything. But Alli's hiding something. And KJ? He's never had to chase someone who runs this fast. With team gossip swirling, the internet watching, and their careers on the line, they'll have to decide if their game is worth the risk-or if this was always destined to crash and burn. Filled with slow-burn tension, spicy banter, unhinged teammates, and one wildly chaotic love story-Complete Chaos is a romance that'll make you scream, cry, and maybe fall in love with a baseball player you definitely shouldn't.
