Sometimes to feel comfortable, one must experience a little discomfort and for Eva Valtersen, that was exactly what she needed. After being recruited in the Summer of 2021, the 21-year-old Norwegian midfielder decided to leave the comfort of her home country and make the move to her dream club in England, Manchester City. 

At City, Eva soon settles, finding new routines and traditions that fit around the noise in her head, and hurt in her heart. Through newfound friendships with Hayley Raso, Georgia Stanway and Keira Walsh, as well as frequent international breaks and tournaments with her best friends, Ingrid Engen, Guro Reiten, and Frida Maanum, Eva finds her supposed peace. 

That is until a derby match between the two Manchester teams rocks her newfound comfort. After the unexpected meeting with Ona Batlle, her world changes. Her mind changes. Ona brings out something in Eva that she thought was never possible: peace.   

In the mean time, Eva is there for Ingrid, while she is developing her own romance with the Spanish centre back, Mapi Leon, as she lives her life in Barcelona. 

Throughout all of this, Eva's brain continues to tick. Why did she consider her intrusive thoughts to be calming? Why was this all happening to her brain? And how come Ona was the only person who could make her feel better again? 

This Is Me Trying is a story about love, forgiveness and mental health, representing how the mind can truely affect the heart.

18+ only #1 in Marriage of Convenience [July 2024] "The fewer people that know the truth the better. And if this all goes smoothly, you two will be able to get divorced before the hockey season ends." "I have the places where you both will sign," His eyes lifted and scanned both of us. "But only of course, if you both agree to this." "I'll do it," I said honestly. Minnow sighed outwardly and bit her bottom lip. "If you need more time-" "No," she swallowed, staring at the thick packet in front of us. "I feel like this goes without saying but...no sex. Of any kind. It only complicates things." My cheeks flushed with heat, probably turning pink and Minnow choked. "We won't..." I shook my head, clenching my jaw. Shivers crossed my back. "You don't have to worry about that," Minnow said obviously. "Trust me." ***************************************** Minnow Noel is known for two things: being a hot head and an amazing figure skater. Running from a dark relationship and a past version of herself, she ends up where her skating career all started. Norwegian native Søren Skejeggstad's only focus in life is hockey. With no time for women or a personal life, his only goal is to become the top NHL all-star. But when a major problem arises, he's at risk of losing his dreams if he doesn't figure something out. They were once friends in a past life but now things are cold as ice between them. Just the thought of Søren alone makes Minnow's blood run cold and he'd rather avoid her at all costs. But now an opportunity presents itself and wait...can they get along for a little while or will they end up killing each other before their agreement is through?

Jessica Russo, 22, is tired of being known as "Alessia's little sister." After proving herself at Chelsea, a shocking transfer to FC Barcelona Femení gives her the chance to step out of the shadow and build her own legacy. But Barcelona is intense. Training demands perfection, the media never stop watching, and expectations are sky high. And standing at the center of it all is Alexia Putellas captain, icon, and the last person willing to take it easy on a newcomer. Their first meeting is cold, their first training session explosive, and their chemistry immediately borders on dangerous. They clash. Constantly. Jessica's fiery stubbornness pushes against Alexia's strict leadership, turning simple drills into battles and silent glances into tension no one can ignore. Her teammates whisper. Reporters speculate. And Jessica is left wondering if she'll ever fit in. Just as doubts creep in, everything changes with one life-changing moment: Her first England national team call-up. It's validation she's fought for her entire life and it catches Alexia's attention in a way no one expected. Slowly, their dynamic shifts. Arguments soften into banter, lingering glares turn into stolen glances, and the walls Jess thought were unbreakable begin to crack. But letting feelings grow in the spotlight is risky, especially when eyes are watching... and not everyone in the locker room is happy about it. Jessica must prove she's more than her sister's legacy. Alexia must face the fear of letting someone new into her guarded world. Enemies become something else. Something complicated. Something powerful.

30 parti Completa Per adulti

I hated her. That was the beginning, anyway. Ona Batlle: the girl who smiled too much, marked me too close, laughed like she already knew she'd win. My rival on the pitch. My obsession off it. We were never meant to fall in love. But somewhere between the tackles and the banter, the smirks and the silences, I started to unravel. And she- She'd already fallen. This is a story about enemies who turned into something more. About tension that burned too hot to ignore. About secrecy and jealousy and touches under tables, and group chats that knew too much. It's about the girl who drove me mad- And made me feel safe. Wanted. Home. It's not a fairytale. But it's real. And she's mine.
