Once she's graduated university, Alana Clarke moves back to where she grew up for her first job as the social media manager for Wakefield FC.

Although Garrett's performance last season yielded a number of personal records, his mental state was at an all-time low, so a good relationship may be just what he needs. As stated by the league, club staff are highly discouraged from dating players, but Alana can't seem to avoid Garrett's charm. However, hiding their relationship turns out to be a bigger challenge than expected. As Alana begins to make enemies within the club, gossip is leaked about Garrett, and nobody to back them up, the two worry they might just be getting ahead of themselves. Unless they can get someone in their corner, both of their careers might be in jeopardy. How much is too much to risk for love?Complete

It's all very reminiscent of her Mom, Teddy. Nothing is ever true though, well, not always. Everyone else seems to be settling down and having kids, and Olympia can't deny she doesn't think about it, but she's yet to find her person. The celebrities she's dated are shallow and hard work, and life in the A list world has long lost its shine. She's ticked off the movie star, the guy from the boy band, the girl from that reality show, and just ended a secret relationship that spanned seven years on and off with someone twice her age. Olympia's craving home comforts, and real people. She's craving home. Perhaps some interfering friends and family can help Olympia open up a heart long hidden away, and if they can't, her four year old niece Alba sure can. Basketball, celebrity, dating, family, friends, love & life. *I DO NOT GIVE PERMISSION FOR THIS BOOK TO BE COPIED, OR ADAPTED ON THIS PLATFORM, OR ANY OTHER, BY ANYONE ELSE* *more to come nearer the time* 👩🏻🦱🤍❓
