This is a work of fiction. The characters in the book may have some similarities to real people, but that is all it is. I do not know how any of the people I have taken inspiration from acts in real life. And if the  would reach out and not be comfortable with the work, I will take it down.

Breaking Point by wosoLW6AR23

When I landed my dream job as Arsenal's new physiotherapist, I knew I'd be dealing with pressure. What I didn't expect was her. Leah Williamson - captain, England star, and the most stubborn player I've ever met. From the moment we clashed, it's been constant arguments, eye-rolls, and sarcastic remarks. She doesn't trust me, and I can't stand her attitude. But when an injury forces her into my hands, everything changes. Behind the fire and the walls, I start to see the real Leah - vulnerable, protective, and impossible to ignore. One mistake, that's all it takes and both our careers are over. Is she worth the risk and am I willing to take it?

Opposite Attraction by wiilliamson

Kelsey Beattie, a 24-year-old professional footballer from Scotland, faces a significant crossroads in her career. As the football season draws to a close, her contract with Manchester United is also nearing its end. Presented with two distinct paths, each with its own set of challenges, Kelsey must carefully weigh her options. One option entails a transfer to Arsenal, where her sister, Jen, currently plays. The familial connection adds a compelling element to this choice, yet it is not without its challenges. The alternative involves returning to her roots in Scotland to join Glasgow City, a decision that would require her to rebuild her career from scratch. Despite being able to be closer to her sister at Arsenal, Kelsey faces an obstacle in the form of her longstanding rival, Leah Williamson, who also competes for the same team. Unbeknownst to Kelsey, the animosity between her and Leah runs deep, raising questions about the potential for a harmonious relationship on the field. Will Kelsey do what's best for her career, or will she let feelings get in the way? 🥇 No. 1 - #leah 🥇 No. 1 - #lionesses 🥇 No. 1 - #jenbeattie 🥇 No. 1 - #arsenal 🥇 No. 1 - #womensfootball 🥇 No. 1 - #arsenalwomen 🥇 No. 1 - #leahwilliamson 🥇 No. 1 - #england 🥇 No. 1 - #williamson 🥇 No. 1 - #woso 🥇 No. 1 - #arsenalfc 🥇 No. 1 - #newstory 🥇 No. 1 - #manunited 🥇 No. 1 - #lesbianromance

Alessia is high in her career, recently making the move to arsenal from Manchester United. Alessia knows her parents are hiding something from her, ever since Cecilia disappeared, seemingly from planet earth. She feels like she cannot trust anyone close, all apart from her best friend Ella Toone. Alessia starts to give up hope on ever seeing her twin again, until a new face appears at Arsenal Women's training centre, Charlotte River. Alessia and Lottie avoid eachother instantly and seem to have a distance. Will Alessia ever see Cecilia again? Will the duo ever be Lia and Less again like when they were kids? Will Alessia figure out what her parents are hiding from her? Will she finally figure out the lies from 19 years ago?

When You See Me by WSLreader

Leah Williamson has always known how to lead-from captaining club and country to keeping her teammates close. But when Mackenzie Hewitt joins Arsenal's first team, Leah finds herself challenged by someone she can't quite read. Quiet, blunt, and obsessively precise, Mackenzie keeps her distance from everyone, speaking only when necessary-and rarely in ways people understand. To most, including Leah, Mackenzie is "weird." Cold. Difficult. What Leah doesn't know is that Mackenzie has Asperger's and severe OCD, diagnoses she hides fiercely to avoid being reduced to labels she's spent her whole life fighting. She just wants to play football and be seen for who she is-not what she has. As frustration turns into fascination, and fascination into something far deeper, Leah finds herself drawn into Mackenzie's carefully ordered world. Through slow adaptations, missed cues, raw confessions, and unexpected tenderness, Leah begins to uncover the real Mackenzie-the one hidden beneath rigid routines and guarded silences. But falling in love with someone like Mackenzie means learning a new language entirely-one of patience, precision, and unspoken truths. And for Mackenzie, love is terrifying in its unpredictability... unless she can learn to trust that Leah wants her-just as she is. 🚨Explicit Content 18+🚨

Can You Hear Me? by WSLreader

At twenty-four, Ellie O'Connell has fought harder than most to make it in football. Partially deaf since childhood, she's spent years learning to read the game in her own way-through instinct, timing, and sheer resilience. Talent has never been her problem; being underestimated always has. When Arsenal offers her the chance of a lifetime, Ellie knows she belongs-but she also knows the Women's Super League spotlight will test every weakness she's worked so hard to hide. Leah Williamson, Arsenal's unshakable captain, doesn't believe in weakness. Stone-faced and disciplined, Leah leads with an iron will, never allowing herself to falter-on or off the pitch. To Ellie, she's everything untouchable: a role model, a wall, a woman impossible to impress. But as the season unfolds, Leah starts to notice the quiet strength behind Ellie's guarded exterior. And Ellie, in turn, discovers that even the toughest leaders have their own cracks, their own silences. What begins as respect grows into something far more dangerous: a slow-burning, impossible-to-ignore connection that threatens to break through every wall they've built. A story of resilience, trust, and the unexpected ways love can be heard-even in the quiet.

Who Scores First by kayladarose

She never planned to fall. But some things can't be outrun forever. Willow doesn't believe in love. Not after what she's been through. When she signs with Arsenal, it's supposed to be a new beginning-a chance to focus on football, on healing, and on finally reuniting with her best friend, Alessia Russo. The two have always shared everything... until Leah Williamson steps in. Strong. Steady. Impossible to ignore. Leah sees through Willow's walls in ways no one else ever has. But so does Alessia-and the lines between friendship, loyalty, and something more begin to blur. As Willow rises on the pitch, the pressure builds off it. Her past is still chasing her, and love was never part of the plan. Especially not when hearts are on the line-and two of them belong to the people she trusts most. Can Willow outrun what haunts her? Or will love find her in the one place she never thought to look-right at her feet? And no matter who she chooses-someone's going to get hurt. Including her.
