The Familiar Face✅ by SECRETSPAM2010
19 parts Ongoing
Liv Foster and Noah Fisher were the kind of childhood friends who could finish each other's sentences and steal fries off each other's plates without asking. Summers meant baseball dirt under Noah's nails, sunburn on Liv's shoulders, and some kind of unspoken promise that they'd always be in each other's orbit. Cut to college-new freedom, same heartbeat-and somewhere between study sessions and late-night drives, friendship twisted into something heavier. They fell, hard. Until Noah did the one thing Liv thought he never would: he cheated. No drama explosion, no cinematic screaming. Just quiet devastation. She walked away and built walls out of professionalism and caffeine. Years later, Liv gets an email that looks like the universe playing a cruel joke: she's just been offered a job as assistant to the new athletic director for the Party Animals. The same chaotic rival team that loves glitter, pranks, and unhinged celebrations. The same team where Noah Fisher-number 12, golden-boy outfielder, heartbreak incarnate-now plays. Liv walks into that stadium like she owns her composure. Noah sees her for the first time in years, and every apology he rehearsed evaporates. Their dynamic turns into this tightrope walk between old habits and unresolved tension. He tries humor, she gives him silence. He makes a catch mid-game, and she refuses to look impressed. But rivalry has a strange way of making sparks dangerous again. Forced to collaborate for charity events, media shoots, and player discipline reports (because Noah definitely pulls pranks that end up on TikTok), they start peeling back the layers-resentment, guilt, that stupid old warmth that never really died. It's friends to lovers to strangers to lovers again, but this time older, warier, and more real. The question isn't whether they'll fall again-it's whether they can trust each other not to break what's already been rebuilt.

Cameron's first love is baseball, but when he falls for a softball player he can't be with, he realizes he's signed up for more than he bargained for. Between teaching baseball to a rag-tag team of kids and pursuing his dreams of coaching professionally, he shouldn't have feelings for Norah. But attraction is hard to fight, even when pasts and pain threaten to hurt him even more than they already have. ******* Cameron Shaw, the quiet and reserved assistant for an esteemed collegiate baseball team, has one goal in life: to coach professional ball. After one wild, unforgettable kiss on a dance floor with a stranger, his dreams are at risk of crashing down all around him. Again. Fun-loving Norah Young has two goals. First, to prove to her coach that she can be a starting player on the Saint Helena University softball team. Second, to find out why the stranger at the bar left her standing alone after the best kiss of her life. Infatuation turns to hate when he leads her to believe that he wants nothing to do with her. As the baseball assistant and a student athlete, Cameron and Norah aren't supposed to be together, but they can't seem to stay away from each other. Especially when Norah wakes up hungover in Cameron's bed, only to find out that he coaches a team of kids who don't know the first thing about baseball. While Cameron silently endures the chronic pain that stole his baseball career, Norah aims to figure out what it was that stole the promising young player's talent and smile, without getting too close to him. But they can't seem to stay away from each other, no matter how hard they try.
