England's Stargirl is secretly a pr nightmare. When Chelsea drops her and Arsenal picks her up will everything change?

Alexandra Varco's mind recently has been preoccupied by three things: football, her mother's cancer diagnosis, and the coaching qualification course she forgot she had signed up for. A Gooner at heart, Lexa grew up playing for the red side of North London, but after a nearly two-season ending injury, she was loaned out to Spanish team Levante to aid her return. She captured the attention of title contenders Barcelona during her first season in the league, and having been out of contract with Arsenal, she signed with the Catalonian side, spending three years there, falling in love with the city and winning a few trophies along the way. Lexa makes the decision to return home to England when she learns of her mother's breast cancer diagnosis, and going back to Arsenal brings a bittersweet feeling full of sentiment, yet she's not so sure whether she really wants to be there. Amidst her personal chaos, spending most of her time at the hospital and perhaps missing an ex a little too much, she also has to deal with the pressure that comes with playing professionally.

They click instantly, and these weekly lessons soon start to become her escape from reality in an attempt to relieve the stifling feeling she feels trapped with whenever she steps onto a football pitch. Juggling her family, football and now coaching life starts to get difficult, and she begins to question the world around her, especially when unwanted feelings start to get involved. She has never been one for decision making, so what happens when she has to choose between two? And if it's not the right one, will she ever be able to get the other back? a Guro Reiten story.

After High Series # 1: Do You Swear? by beeyotch

(After High Series # 1) Saffron Rose Borromeo appears to have it all-top grades, family connections, and a guaranteed future in law. But appearances can be deceiving. Maximiliano Jose Delgado is her academic equal and complete opposite. Brilliant, intense, and fiercely independent, he seems to see right through her polished facade-and he clearly doesn't like what he sees. From their first day at the SCA- College of Law, they're locked in a rivalry that goes beyond textbooks and test scores. It's personal. It's consuming. And neither understands why the other brings out such strong reactions. But when good intentions collide with wounded pride, their carefully constructed worlds begin to crumble. Some secrets destroy trust. Some lies are meant to help. And sometimes, the person you're trying to save is the last person who wants your rescue.

It takes only one call for Manchester City's own goalkeeper, Louise McKay, to know she has lost her one true anchor. With the deaths of both her parents, she has to find a way to get through life. For this story, let's assume that Leah Williamson is twenty-one years old. Otherwise, the age gap could be tricky. Also, because we live in my fiction world, relationships are always legal, no matter the age. Yeah, that's totally realistic... And a last thing, the timing in the story may or may not line up perfectly, I can't even remember myself what happens at what time. Just roll with that too! Welcome to 'Getting Trough Life' DISCLAIMER: I take no claim of any character in this book, except for my own. Every person is for fictional use. WARNING: Mentions of death, trigger warnings throughout the whole book NOTE: English isn't my first language

He has no interest in love or marriage. But what happens when his family arranges his marriage to a girl who has nothing... and no one even knows she exists? Will he accept her or push her away? YASHIKA TRIPATHI is a girl who lives inside four walls not because anyone forces her but because she chooses silence. She speaks only when needed and sometimes not at all. She has no one to share her pain with. She wasn't always like this. Something in her past changed her completely. She doesn't know her purpose in life-until the day her family fixes her marriage with the King of Ranwada, Arvith Rawalvanshi. To Yashika, this feels like the end. How can she survive with a man known as a devil? Will she get the love she always craves? Will he ever accept her? And what turned her into this quiet, broken girl? Step into a world of power, silence and longing-where destiny writes its own story.
