"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.

Fake It Till We Make It
Maeve Linton's transfer from Manchester United to Arsenal was supposed to be a fresh start - new city, new teammates, and no unnecessary drama. Two years on, her career is thriving... but her personal life is a mess, thanks to her parents' relentless questions about her love life. In a moment of desperation, Maeve blurts out that she's already seeing someone. And when they press for details, she drags in the only person she trusts enough to fake it with - her best friend and teammate, Leah Williamson. Leah agrees, because that's what best friends do. They hold hands at family dinners, post the occasional carefully-staged photo, and laugh through awkward questions. But the longer they play pretend, the less it feels like acting. Jokes turn into late-night confessions. Staged kisses feel alarmingly real. And suddenly, Maeve and Leah are caught in a game neither of them prepared for. With the season heating up and feelings threatening to derail everything, the two must figure out if they're willing to risk their friendship for something more - or if love, like football, sometimes requires the boldest moves of all.Complete

Worlds Apart
They met by accident...by chance. The campus of UNC was busy that day. Everyone was in a hurry. Especially the two juniors that would collide and ultimately change their lives. Brooklyn Morgan, a talented but struggling singer-songwriter, whose soulful lyrics go merely unnoticed in a world full of big artists. For Brooklyn, the bar stages are small, the paychecks are meager, and the future seems uncertain. But she clings to her music in hopes it'll be worth one day. Across campus, you could find Alessia Russo on the field every day. An England native was living the American dream. She had everything going for her. She was a part of England's under-21 squad, on the verge of making her senior debut, and huge clubs were looking at her to sign. One morning though, one was in a rush to get to her class and one was in a rush to get to practice, they run into each other. Something about the clumsy English girl took Brooklyn by surprise, and something about the American made Alessia's head spin. It's from there on, a connection is made. Their lives of now sitting in the stands and sitting in the crowd forms. However, when Alessia forgoes her senior year to play in England, the connection they had fades and they become a small memory to each other. But what happens when Brooklyn's finally selling out stadiums and one of them happens to be Wembley? What happens when they meet each other again for the first time in two years? What happens when the connection they had runs deeper than they first thought originally? What happens when they're right next to each other but feel as though they're worlds apart?Complete
She blocks, I blush
Alessia Russo knows the golden rule of Lioness camp: don't fall for the captain. Too late. Ever since that first call-up, Arsenal's golden girl Leah Williamson has had Alessia flustered, flattered, and totally floored - not that Leah has a clue. Calm, collected, and totally out of her league, Leah is everything Alessia's not: composed, commanding... and completely off-limits. Especially now. With a headline-making transfer from Manchester United to Arsenal looming, Alessia's about to become Leah's teammate. And if crushing on your national team captain is bad, pining for your club captain is basically career suicide. At least Ella Toone thinks it's hilarious. As training intensifies and lines blur between banter and something softer, Alessia must decide whether staying quiet is safer - or if risking it all for the one girl who makes her heart race might just be the best goal she's ever scored.Complete

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.

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.

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.Complete
