One Olympic medal. One championship title. One World Cup final.
Yet all it takes is two minutes of rugby to send Sonny Graham running back to the remote island she once called home.
Vowing she is done with the sport, Sonny tries to lay low, but a case of wrong place, wrong time lands her as the reluctant coach of Lewis Ladies RUFC, a struggling women's rugby team on the brink of collapse.
Now Sonny is caught between her past and her future, torn between leaving rugby behind and being the team's last hope.
Then there is Del Macauley - the strong, confident, sharp-tongued childhood best friend Sonny hasn't seen in years. Years of resentment and old memories resurface; as tempers flare and sparks fly, Del soon proves to be just as impossible to ignore as the sport Sonny thought she'd left behind.
Years away from the island have changed Sonny in ways she can't quite understand. Yet at home, it feels like nothing has changed at all.

When Love Intervenes
A'zaria Brooks is a focused, no-nonsense nursing student determined to graduate at the top of her class. Distractions like parties, gossip, and campus drama don't interest her-especially not Camron Banks, the football and basketball captain whose flashy reputation as a player precedes him everywhere he goes. When Camron suffers a career-threatening injury, A'zaria is assigned to his care as part of her clinical student aid training. Initially reluctant to get involved, she soon discovers a different side of him: beneath the confident exterior is a vulnerable young man struggling to find purpose off the field. Camron's parents, former athletes themselves, have always held him to sky-high standards-expecting nothing less than excellence and championship titles. His injury not only threatens his sports career but also strains his relationship with them, adding immense pressure to prove himself beyond the game. Surprisingly gentle and sincere, Camron volunteers for every rehab session and seeks A'zaria's help not just for his physical recovery but to keep his mind off the uncertainty of his future. As their friendship deepens, A'zaria starts to see past the headlines, and Camron begins to respect her passion and resilience. But when Camron's ex-girlfriend-who's still in love with him-starts stirring trouble, their growing bond faces challenges. A'zaria must decide if she's willing to risk her heart for a boy everyone thinks she can't have, and Camron must confront what it means to truly care for someone beyond the spotlight.
Where Love Meets The Quite War
Caia Dela Vega wasn't supposed to fall in love this year-especially not with the sharp-eyed scholarship girl who avoids people like the plague.

Blunt. Brilliant. Closed off like a storm about to break. What starts as friction becomes a spark. A shared club. A slow unraveling of walls. A war of glances, late-night texts, and moments that almost mean everything-until they do. As exams approach and futures press in, Caia and Rain are pulled between what they want and who the world expects them to be. Because falling in love is one thing. Staying in love-when the real world starts knocking-is another. This is a story of longing, quiet rebellion, and loving someone enough to lose them. Because sometimes, the softest wars are the ones inside us-and the loudest loves are the ones we never planned.Complete

Can't we?
The rain fell in relentless sheets the night Wang Qi walked back into Li Fang's life, bringing with her a storm of memories Li Fang had spent years trying to forget. Once, they had been fierce rivals in school-opposites in every way, one an introverted and brilliant tactician, the other an extrovert whose easy laughter hid walls no one could cross-locked in a battle for victory until Wang Qi suddenly vanished, abandoning their competition and leaving only questions behind. Now, years later, Wang Qi stood before her as the department's newest forensic pathologist, smiling with a practiced ease that couldn't mask the haunted look in her eyes. As they were assigned to a high-stakes case involving a missing woman named Wang Wei, Li Fang sensed the same darkness that had stolen Wang Qi away all those years ago lingering beneath the surface. She didn't know why Wang Qi had returned, what secrets she carried, or why her presence made Li Fang's heart twist with both anger and longing-but she did know one thing: this time, she wouldn't let Wang Qi disappear without a fight.Complete
