love lies- nika mühl

eden brooks, athropology major is spending her summer with her lifelong best friend, mackenzie holmes. who happens to be teammates with the nika mühl.

eden's used to being the fun, flirty, confident one who never gets attached. but when she and nika get unexpectedly close one night while waiting for mackenzie, something shifts.

nika isn't used to being thrown off her game, on and off the court. but eden's quick wit, blunt honesty and lowkey vulnerability sneak under her skin.

what starts as harmless banter and late night hangouts turns into something heavier.
secret glances, lingering touches and quiet confessions that neither of them are ready to admit out loud.

mackenzie is caught in the middle, totally oblivious to the growing tension (at first).

as summer goes on, eden's starts questioning if she's capable of actually falling for someone again, and nika has to decide if risking the friendship and maybe the team dynamic is worth it.

a summer of teasing, late night drives and undeniable chemistry all under the same roof.

what could go wrong?
