H-O-R-S-E and Heartstrings

Arabella is a talented but driven basketball player with a lot riding on her success-she's determined to win her tournament, impress scouts, and secure a scholarship that will help her build a better future. Balancing the pressures of home, school, and the game, she refuses to let anything slow her down.

Carter, her best friend since childhood, is her biggest supporter. He's also a basketball player, but unlike Arabella, he doesn't have as much riding on the sport. His life is steadier, and while he admires her determination, he worries about how much she carries on her own.

As the season progresses and the pressure mounts, their friendship-full of teasing, late-night talks, and unwavering loyalty-starts to shift into something more. But with Arabella's future on the line, will she let herself lean on Carter, or will her fear of failure-and love-hold her back?
