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
The Years Between Us
They've been inseparable since they were seven - Leah, the bold girl with a football at her feet and the world on her shoulders, and her quieter counterpart, the one who always knew when Leah needed a moment of silence more than a speech. From playground games to national stadiums, failed relationships to milestone moments, their lives have twisted and grown in tandem - but never quite together. Now in their late twenties, both tired of love that never quite fit, they're still each other's favourite person. And it's enough. It always has been. Until a wedding. A toast. A bottle of wine too many. And a kiss. One kiss that starts unravelling everything they thought they knew - about themselves, about each other, and about the years between them. Told with quiet yearning and slow-burn intimacy, The Years Between Us is a tender exploration of friendship, loyalty, and the kind of love that was always there - just waiting to be seen. 🚨Mature Content 18+🚨Complete
When You See Me
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+🚨Complete

Spotlight & Silverware
Fresh from captaining England to their historic Euros victory, Leah Williamson should be revelling in the moment. The parades, the interviews, the celebration at Buckingham Palace-she's the face of a nation's triumph, the captain whose name is on everyone's lips. Ashley West has no intention of being there. A rising star on the West End stage, she's been dragged to the Palace celebrations by her best friend Emma, reluctantly swapping rehearsals and quiet evenings for a world of roaring football fans and champagne flutes. She plans to stay at the edges, unseen, until the night is over. Then, by sheer chance, Leah nearly collides with her outside the Palace gates. A tangle of apologies, a shared laugh, and a glance that lingers far too long for two strangers. Leah is captivated-by Ashley's warmth, by her refusal to be dazzled by fame, by the way she feels like a breath of calm in a night full of chaos. As Leah's world hurtles forward in a whirlwind of media demands and Ashley's in the unforgiving spotlight of the stage, they find themselves meeting in the spaces between-late-night conversations, stolen coffees, quiet corners where the rest of the world can't reach them. But with their lives pulling them in opposite directions, can a footballer bound by the pitch and a performer bound by the stage find a way to write a love story that lasts beyond the final whistle?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
The Final Swipe
Leah Williamson has always been the rock-on the pitch and off. Captain of England, a cornerstone at Arsenal, and the dependable friend everyone leans on. But lately, being surrounded by couples-Caitlin and Katie, Beth and Viv, even Alex Scott blissfully happy with Jess Glynne-has left Leah feeling like the odd one out. She's happy for them, of course. But watching everyone else in love only sharpens the ache she tries so hard to ignore: she wants someone of her own. Not just anyone, though. Leah's not after quick flings or casual headlines. She wants someone she can spoil, protect, and treat like the most important person in the world. The kind of relationship that feels like home, even in the chaos of stadium lights and tabloids. One evening, over a bottle of wine, Alex urges Leah to do something unthinkable: sign up for a dating app. Leah scoffs-she's always sworn she'd never go near one. Too risky. Too messy. Too... un-Leah. But with Alex insisting and loneliness gnawing, Leah takes the plunge. That's when she meets her. A girl with no ties to football, no idea who Leah Williamson really is, and a smile that makes Leah want to break every rule she's set for herself. What starts as late-night chats and cautious first dates soon becomes something Leah didn't realize she was craving: a chance to be vulnerable, to give herself completely, and to love like she plays-fearlessly and all in. But can a relationship born in secrecy survive under the relentless spotlight? Or will Leah's world-one she's spent years building-threaten to tear apart the one thing she's finally found worth fighting for? 🚨Explicit Content 18+🚨Complete
