It was always Ella and Paige. Paige and Ella. You think of one you think of the other. Now it's just Ella.
Paige Bueckers is the best female basketball player to come out of Hopkins Minnesota. There was never a question she would leave the town to do great things. But when she got a scholarship to play at UConn, her best friend since childhood and high school girlfriend never thought she'd get left behind.
Now it's the off season before Paige's last and final year as a college athlete and she wants to spend all of it back in Hopkins. Her and Ella find it difficult to avoid each other when they ran in all the same circles back before Paige left.

Still Here ~ Paige Buckers ~
When Zoe, a quick-witted, sharp-tongued girl living with cystic fibrosis meets basketball star Paige Bueckers, the last thing she expects is for Paige to stay. Zoe copes with sarcasm while Paige balances high-pressure basketball with being the kind of steady presence Zoe never knew she needed. Their story isn't about dramatic confessions or perfect timing, it's about the softness in showing up, the strength in staying, and the rare, quiet kind of love that holds on even when everything else feels like it's slipping away. "When I breathe, she stays. And when I can't, she holds on tighter."Complete

And once, a long time ago, her best friend. That was before the fight-the kind that leaves scars deeper than words ever could. Since then, they have shared more hate than history, more silence than memories. But something is shifting all over again. Alicia and Paige are feeling things they shouldn't-𝐮𝐧𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 in their chest whenever each other enter the room, and whenever they see each other across the lawn, a quiet curiosity of how things would be if they talked it out. And with every game, every sideline glance, every unspoken word, every stare across the lawn the tension grows between the two more and more. What happens will test the line between love and hate, and challenge everything they thought they knew about each other.
