Sweat and Goals
Hannah King doesn't do distractions. As the owner of KingFit, a popular St.Albans gym, her life is built around structure, early mornings, and helping others reach their peak. She's a personal trainer with a no-nonsense attitude and a reputation for getting results. Romance? Not on her schedule. Then Alessia Russo walks through her doors. One of England's brightest football stars, Alessia isn't looking for headlines or rehab-she just wants to train harder, push further, and stay sharp ahead of a massive season. KingFit came highly recommended. She didn't expect her new trainer to be so focused, so calm under pressure-and definitely not so gorgeous. Their connection sparks fast: challenging workouts, competitive banter, lingering looks between sets. Hannah's guarded, used to keeping clients at arm's length. Alessia's charming, confident, and persistent-determined to know the woman behind the clipboard. As their sessions grow more intense, so does the tension. Soon it's more than just reps and routines-it's late-night texts, secret smiles, and a chemistry neither of them can ignore. But with Alessia's growing fame, mixing the personal and professional gets complicated. In a world where image is everything and time is never enough, can two women with different lives-and the same fire-find a way to make it work? Sweat & Goals is a slow-burn, feel-everything sapphic romance about ambition, trust, and falling in love with the one person strong enough to match your pace. 🚨Explicit content 18+🚨Complete
