When Haruka returns to her hometown after walking away from basketball, she expects a quiet reset - new school, old friends, no courts, no pressure.
Instead, she walks straight into Fujisawa High's obsession: basketball, reputation, and a rookie team chasing a championship they can't afford to lose.

Hiro, her childhood friend, is now the team's disciplined captain - steady, loyal, and safe.
Ji-Yong Kang, the team's explosive new transfer, is everything Haruka promised herself to avoid - reckless, magnetic, and carrying a past that refuses to stay buried.

As rivalries turn violent, rumours spread, and the stakes climb from school halls to national finals, Haruka is forced back into the game she swore she'd never touch again - not as a player, but as the one holding everything together.

In a season where every mistake has consequences, Haruka must decide:
play it safe, or risk everything - her heart, her future, and the game she still loves.
Because in basketball - and in life - the playmaker doesn't always take the shot.
She decides who gets the ball.

Yuika Shimizu-"Yui" to everyone who knows her, is the bright, stubborn, and warm-hearted vice president of Class 3-A of Shūketsu Academy. She's always smiling, always helping, and always second-best to one person: Haruki Nakamura. The cold, brilliant, and terrifyingly stoic class president who just so happens to be her complete opposite, and now, her partner for the year. Top of the class, skilled martial artist, and heir to a massive fortune, Haruki has everything, yet keeps everyone at a distance. But Yui's sunshine is impossible to ignore, and when she catches a glimpse of the boy behind the cold exterior-a flicker of loneliness? an unexpected trauma? she finds herself drawn to him in ways she can't explain. Caught between childhood friendships, intense expectations, and a boy who refuses to let anyone in, Yui's senior year is about to be anything but ordinary. Because love doesn't always bloom in the light. Sometimes, it begins beneath his cold eyes. A/N: CREDITS TO RIGHTFUL OWNERS

Featured on New Beginnings in Romance Picks Anthology at Romance Recognised in 6x Awards - What do you do when your heart pulls you in two different directions? Hi, my name is Olivia Meyer, and I'm a seventeen-year-old girl who has a little confession: falling for Freddie Hutchinson, the school's infamous 'bad boy,' was never part of the plan. I've always been perfectly fine with my low-key life. Books over parties? Check. Silence over drama? Double-check. Honestly, I'm just trying to survive high school with my best friend, Tom McKenzie, by my side since he's the only person who's ever really seen me. But then I got paired with Freddie for a class project. Freddie Hutchinson, with his leather jacket, sharp smirk, and reputation darker than my coffee order. We've never spoken a word to each other before now, but suddenly, I'm seeing sides of him no one else seems to notice. Like the kind-hearted boy hiding beneath the tough exterior. And now my carefully crafted world is starting to crack. Alicia James, the queen bee of high school politics, isn't happy about the Status Quo changing and Tom... well, let's just say he's acting weird. Like, jealous kind of weird. The worst part? I think I might actually like Freddie. Like, love him. You read it right: love him. But if I choose him, I could lose everything else I care about. So, what do I do? Follow my heart, or stick to the plan? Either way, I have a feeling my senior year is about to get way more complicated than ever. Wish me luck. XO Olivia Copyright © 2024 by Alina Bryne
