Hi, my name is Olivia Monroe but if you know me it's Liv.
I'm 25 from Milton Keynes, however I've lived in LA for the last 7 years for my job. I work in marketing, which is so hands on, planning events for celebrities and brands all over the world.
Very rarely do I come back to the UK, only for the odd Christmas or my birthday.
Due to an event, and my birthday which is in the summer, I'm heading back to London for a few weeks. I can't wait to see my little brother (who is 21, so not so little) and the rest of my family and old friends I haven't been able to see for a while.
How, this is where it gets complicated.
Leah Williamson, my childhood best friend, but also my ex girlfriend.
We dated for 2 years before I moved to LA. She didn't want to do a (very) long distance relationship with her starting to make her way up the ranks with Arsenal, so she cut it off with me a few days before I flew out to LA. Our parents are still very close, our mums go on coffee dates and go to watch Leah's games together.
I haven't seen, or heard from her since I left. She wished me luck on the day I moved, but since then, nothing. 7 years of nothing.

Jaimee and Leah grew up side by side in Milton Keynes after Jaimee's family relocated there. Their mothers, Ellis and Amanda, became fast friends-just like their daughters. From the moment Jaimee was born, Leah felt an instinctive need to protect her. They shared everything-birthdays, traditions, and dreams. At just six years old, they joined Arsenal's academy together, united by a single goal: to become legends in red and white. At 15, Jaimee signed her first professional contract with Arsenal. A year later, she earned her debut for the Lionesses, forging a path that was both bold and bright. Leah remained devoted to Arsenal too, breaking into the first team at 17 and later donning the England shirt with pride. Over the years, their bond only deepened. Together, they became the heart of Arsenal's defense-commanding, fearless, adored by fans. Two queens. Two icons. One unbreakable friendship. But what if it's more than just friendship?

Offside Heart
When Frederike-Gabriella Roord Ferra arrives in London with her golden-haired daughter Rose and loyal golden retriever Leo, she's hoping for a quiet visit with her half-sister - Manchester City's Dutch midfielder, Jill Roord. But her trip takes an unexpected turn when three-year-old Rose bolts into a busy East London café... straight into the middle of the Arsenal Women's team on a pre-match activation walk. Chaos unfolds. Beth Mead barely has time to register the blonde toddler before the girl's mother storms in - and collides headfirst into the chest of Arsenal captain Leah Williamson. Sparks fly. Literally. Leah can't shake the moment. Not the wild-eyed beauty with the fierce accent, not the laughing toddler, not even the golden retriever who somehow managed to steal a muffin mid-scramble. Three days later, fate kicks in again when Rike and Rose appear pitchside at Arsenal's clash with Manchester City - there to cheer on Jill, who's flanked by fellow Dutch internationals Kerstin Casparij and Vivianne Miedema... Beth Mead's girlfriend. Torn between family loyalty and unexpected chemistry, Rike finds herself pulled into two very different worlds - and into the orbit of a woman who is as grounded as she is guarded. Leah, known for her composure on the pitch, is anything but steady when it comes to Rike. With Rose stealing everyone's heart (and Leo sneaking into players-only zones), the lines between rivalry and romance begin to blur. But with Jill watching closely, secrets Rike hasn't shared, and the pressures of public lives - can two women on opposite sides of the pitch find common ground in the heart?Complete
The space between passes
When Leah Williamson meets Jas Dhillon at their first England youth camp, they share a secret kiss-an impulsive, electric moment neither of them dares to speak of again. What follows is a decade of silence. As their football careers take off, they face each other only as rivals-Leah captaining Arsenal and Jas rising through Manchester United. They compete fiercely, avoid each other deliberately, and bury the memory of that one stolen moment under ambition and distance. But when they're both called up for the England squad just weeks before the 2022 Women's Euros-and Leah is unexpectedly named team captain-the past comes rushing back. The two women reconnect through cautious glances, awkward training drills, and late-night messages that rekindle everything they tried to forget. As pressure mounts on the national stage, Leah and Jas must navigate the delicate line between loyalty to their clubs, responsibility to their country, and a love that never really left. Will they find the courage to rewrite their story, or let it slip away once more?Complete
Hot Off The Press
Leah Williamson doesn't do journalists. To her, they're all the same - relentless, nosey, and willing to twist anything for a headline. She's spent years keeping every reporter at arm's length, never letting any of them see more than the polite smile she wears on camera. Except Amy Perk. Amy is the one exception - the only journalist every footballer seems to love, and the only one Leah can actually stand. Sharp, warm, and annoyingly good at disarming her, Amy has a way of asking the questions Leah never lets anyone close enough to ask. But when Leah becomes entangled in an incident that could derail her career if the press ever finds out, Amy is the last person she should trust - and the only person she wants to. What starts as a cautious friendship begins to blur into something far more dangerous: late-night meetings, stolen glances, and a connection Leah knows could cost them both everything. Now Leah has to decide - protect her secret, or risk it all for the one person she swore she'd never fall for.Complete
