Hearts on Ice
⸻ Hearts on Ice Paige Bueckers has always kept her focus on one thing-basketball. As the star of the UConn women's team, love has always taken a backseat to championships, workouts, and pressure to be perfect. But when a chance encounter on campus leads her straight into the path of Alex Morgan, the fierce and fearless captain of the UConn women's hockey team, Paige finds herself caught off guard by a spark she can't ignore.

As the two captains navigate their demanding seasons, the heat between them melts the ice-and threatens to derail everything they've worked for. But falling in love in the spotlight comes with its own set of challenges. Between rivalries, expectations, and a growing media frenzy, Paige and Alex must decide if what they have is worth risking it all. Because sometimes the biggest win... isn't on the scoreboard. ⸻Complete
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
bittersweet

But the Arsenal women's team won't make that easy for her. With them determined to get to know the younger girl and break her out her shell, Stevie must decide who she can trust when her past finally catches up with her.
More than Teammates
When 18-year-old Georgia Clarke is promoted to Arsenal's senior squad, her world is turned upside down - not by the pressure of top-tier football - but by her unexpected connection to star striker Alessia Russo. Alessia is everything Georgia isn't- experienced, quietly confident, but stuck in a toxic relationship she doesn't know how to leave. Beneath Alessia's bright smile is a woman desperate to be seen, and Georgia can't help but look. What starts as friendship quickly spirals into something deeper: soft touches on the training pitch, longing glances, and a drunken kiss neither of them can forget. Their path to love isn't easy. Between Alessia's emotional trauma, the secrecy of being teammates in love, and Georgia's own fears of not being good enough, their hearts clash as often as they connect. But when everything falls apart - fights, silence, longing - they always find their way back to eachother.
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
