A story about Amelia Russo, a 20 year old girl who plays for Manchester united alongside her older sister Alessia Russo. 

All she wants is to play for the lionesses and her dream club  Arsenal, it should be easy right, i mean she's one of the most promising young players in the world, but reality can be an absolute bitch. 

There always seems to be something in her way, things she can't forget and things that she can't face, or should i say people she can't face.

She's conflicted about a lot and ultimately just wants to make the right decision, but that's often easier said than done.

This story will have mature concepts to it so i will warn you in advance. May or may not be slow burn enemies to lovers with Leah ;) 

I own the character Amelia Russo and her biological parents Carol and Mark.

"This article would be huge, but I couldn't do that to her.. Could I?" Evelyn Sayers was just a plain journalist. Well, plain in her mind. She couldn't care less about the things she wrote about however she needed the money and she was a brilliant writer. She was interviewing players before the 2023/24 WSL season begins, and she meets a new transfer to Arsenal. What will happen when she gets to know the transfer a little better... She wasn't ready for a relationship, she thought they both knew that going in. But life suprises you, in many different ways. I'm not great at descriptions sorry! Read the book though. The songs that I most associate with this book are 'With or without you' By U2 and 'Can't help falling in love' By Elvis! My first language is German so apologies if there are any spelling or grammar errors, I do proof read but it's not foolproof.
