Where the coach's daughter and the coach's star player fall in love.

Amanda Auriemma is a freshman with something to prove. Being the coach's daughter has always meant one thing-she's expected to be perfect. But perfection isn't easy when you're falling for someone you know you can't have.

Paige Bueckers is a sophomore battling the worst year of her life. Playing for one of the top women's basketball programs in the country, everything changed when she tore her ACL-along with her love for the game.

What starts as harmless competition turns into stolen glances, late-night calls, 1v1s under gym lights, and tension that refuses to fade. But if anyone finds out, they could lose everything-scholarships, their spots on the team, and maybe even each other.All Rights Reserved

Soft Doesn't Mean Safe| Paige Bueckers by trvpstvrlvr

Raina Monica Hill has been famous since birth-daughter of R&B royalty, heartbreak in her pen, and softness that stings if you get too close. Her viral debut album Soft Doesn't Mean Safe wasn't supposed to turn her into a campus legend. She just needed to get it out of her system before moving on and focusing on her business. But peace is a luxury. And Paige Bueckers? Is a problem. Star guard of the UConn women's basketball team, Paige is magnetic, untouchable, and not even trying to flirt-until Raina's roommate, who happens to be besties with the whole roster, drags her straight into the team's orbit. What starts as casual tension turns into midnight conversations, inside jokes, and stolen glances that feel too close to the lyrics Raina swore she'd never live again. But when feelings grow deeper, and secrets from Paige's past start to surface, the same walls that protect them might be the ones that tear them apart. Because love is music-and neither of them knows the key.

ɴᴏᴡ ᴘʟᴀʏɪɴɢ: those eyes by poetschoas. ❝ cause all of the small things that you do, are what remind me why i fell for you. ❞ In which, Paige Bueckers and Jenessa Jayde used to be American basketballs worst nightmare. A dynamic duo both on and off the court. Until one drunken night ruined their friendship, and they both went ghost. Avoiding each other like the plague, not answering questions from the media, no contact. That is until Jenessa suffers a season ending injury her junior year, and realizes Iowa isnt her home anymore, so she enters the transfer portal and ends up at Uconn for the remainder of her college career.

Tangled Nets by paigebueckerxfem

In her final year at UConn, Paige Bueckers is focused on one thing: leaving it all on the court. With her eyes on a national title and the WNBA draft, distractions are off-limits-until she meets Kendall Brady, the fiercely passionate and sharp-tongued lacrosse coach at nearby Storrs High... and Ice Brady's older sister. Kendall has sworn off athletes-especially the golden girl types with headlines at their feet and a world beyond the gym. But Paige isn't just any athlete. She's kind, relentless, and unexpectedly easy to talk to. What starts as casual run-ins and playful banter quickly turns into stolen moments, late-night phone calls, and something neither of them expected to feel during the most pivotal year of Paige's life. As their connection deepens, so does the pressure-from the media, from Ice, from their careers. Paige has the world watching her next move. Kendall just wants to keep her heart safe. But love, like lacrosse and basketball, doesn't always play by the rules. Will they risk everything for something real... or walk away before the buzzer sounds? ⸻

Diana Auriemma was born into the game. Cheering from the sidelines, the daughter of the legendary coach, Geno Auriemma. Choosing Iowa was supposed to be the best decision. This was supposed to be the place she'd make her own name, away from the shadow of her dad. But after the weight of not quite belonging, she decides to transfer to UConn, where she'd have to face so much problems with Paige Bueckers being there. Diana must decide if following her heart is worth risking the legacy she's always tried to outrun. _________________ paige bueckers x fem oc

Coach's Daughter by larrie4lifeee

Paige Bueckers x fem reader Y/n Auriemma is the daughter of UCONN's Women's basketball coach. Unlike her father, she doesn't know the first thing about basketball. She simply never cared for the sport, until she discovered her dad's star player, Paige Bueckers. Y/n eventually decides admiring Paige from a far isn't enough anymore, so she starts interning with the teams personal physical therapists who Paige sees often. But even if Paige notices Y/n, the two of them together is a bad idea. Y/n is the coach's daughter after all. Disclaimer: Geno is depicted as the antagonist of this story. He's probably a really nice guy in real life lol.

Valentina Devereaux never thought she'd wear a UConn jersey. Not after everything that happened with Paige Bueckers. The best friend she lost, the connection that crumbled without warning. But life has a way of circling back. After an injury, a championship loss, and too many what-ifs with Iowa, Valentina transfers for her final season, right into the storm she thought she'd escaped. Now, she and Paige are teammates again. The chemistry is still there. So is the silence. On the court, they're unstoppable. Off it? That's where the real game begins. ________________ paige bueckers x fem oc

Hot Take, Wrong Chat by paigebueckerxfem

Paige Bueckers has spent her senior year focused on basketball, blocking out distractions, emotions, and definitely any hint of a crush-until Jordan Blake crashes into her world with that reckless charm, infectious laugh, and a friendship with half the UConn team. Cool, confident, and way too easy to fall for, Jordan becomes Paige's favorite complication. But everything changes with one text. What Jordan thought was a flirty (and very unfiltered) message to her tight inner circle-Azzi, KK, and Ice-was actually sent to everyone on the UConn women's team. Including Paige. Now the group chat is on fire, the locker room is buzzing, and Paige can't unread what she read-or unfeel what she's starting to feel. As tension, chemistry, and chaos collide, Jordan has to figure out if this embarrassing mess could somehow turn into the best thing she never meant to say out loud.

The Point Guard and the Power Hitter by paigebueckerxfem

On the outside, Paige Bueckers has it all - a basketball phenom, a campus icon, and the face of UConn sports. But behind the highlight reels and press interviews, she's looking for something real - something untouched by the spotlight. Enter Callie Rhodes, a fiercely talented junior on the softball team with a swing that turns heads and a quiet confidence that keeps hers down. She's not chasing fame or headlines; she's just chasing her next win - until Paige walks into her orbit. When a chance encounter during a campus charity event sparks unexpected chemistry, their worlds collide - hardwood and infield, fame and privacy, legacy and self-discovery. As their connection deepens, so does the pressure. Teammates whisper. Fans speculate. And the line between personal and public life begins to blur. But Callie isn't afraid to swing for something bigger. And Paige? She's never been one to back down from a challenge - especially not the kind that makes her heart race off the court. In a world where everything is played out under bright lights, can two athletes find a love worth fighting for behind the scenes? ⸻
