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

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?

Beneath Alessia's bright smile is a woman desperate to be seen, and Georgia can't help but look.
