In the cutthroat world of elite college showcase softball, winning is everything-and for Manon Bannerman, it's her only way out. A nationally ranked shortstop with college scouts watching her every move, Manon has spent years chasing the one thing that could finally free her: a Division I scholarship. But behind her polished image and perfect stats is a life controlled by fear, pressure, and bruises she's learned to hide too well. One scholarship could mean freedom, and she refuses to let anyone take that from her.
Especially Lara Raj.
The star pitcher from their biggest rival team is everything Manon hates-intense, infuriating, and impossible to beat. Lara plays with the kinds of hunger that make people nervous, like losing simply isn't allowed. Unlike the girls surrounded by private coaches and expensive travel teams, Lara has fought for every inning she's ever played. She's worked 2 jobs to afford lessons, used severely worn-out equipment, and clawed her way onto elite teams her family could never pay for. To her, softball isn't just a passion-it's the only shot she has at escaping poverty and building a future beyond survival.
When tournament season throws them into each other's orbit over and over again, rivalry quickly turns personal. Between brutal matchups, college scouts, mounting pressure, and lives unraveling behind both sides, the girls begin to see the parts of each other nobody else does. Manon sees the exhaustion Lara hides beneath her confidence. Lara sees the fear behind Manon's perfection. And somewhere between competition and resentment, they become the one thing the other can't afford: a distraction. But what happens when the one girl determined to beat you becomes the one person you need most?

Forbidden to your hands
Lara has always kept her distance, terrified that someone, especially Manon, will uncover the truth she's hidden her whole life. Everyone in the group knows her secret and respects her boundaries, except for Manon, whose touch, closeness, and jealousy make everything harder to hide. When Manon realizes Lara only pulls away from her, frustration turns into suspicion, and her determination to find out what Lara is hiding pushes them dangerously close. As Manon gets nearer, Lara's secret becomes harder to protect, because some truths aren't meant to be touched... and Manon has never been good at keeping her hands off what she wants.
GOOD BAD UGLY - MARZ- KATSEYE
In the middle of messy college nights, loud friends, crowded kitchens, and the kind of exhaustion that settles deep in your bones, Lara Raj and Manon Bannerman meet by accident. Lara is the kind of person everyone leans on but nobody really looks at closely. Funny without trying, caring to a fault, and quietly drowning beneath self-hatred she hides behind tired smiles, she's convinced love is something meant for other people. Manon is impossible to ignore - loud, magnetic, reckless, and emotionally shut tighter than a locked door. She fills every room she enters with warmth and humor while secretly carrying grief she's never learned how to survive. What starts as flirtation and late-night conversations slowly turns into something deeper. Messier. Dangerous in the way real love is when two broken people begin seeing every beautiful and terrible part of each other. Through heartbreak, self-destruction, betrayal, grief, and the terrifying vulnerability of being fully known, Lara and Manon are forced to decide whether love can survive after seeing the good, the bad, and the ugly. A realistic slow-burn romance about healing badly, loving deeply, and learning that being loved is not the same thing as being saved.

Saving Her
Manon isn't just a therapist. She's a worldwide phenomenon. Known for her uncanny ability to understand people, her revolutionary methods, and her flawless track record, she has built a reputation that borders on legendary. Clients travel across continents for a single session, and glowing reviews follow her like shadows - precise, unwavering, impossible to ignore. Manon sees the cracks others miss. She knows the secrets people are desperate to hide... even from themselves. Lara, on the other hand, is the exact opposite. A global popstar adored by millions, she commands stages, charts, and headlines with effortless charisma. But behind the glittering image lies chaos: late nights, reckless habits, and a life spiraling out of control. Her talent is undeniable, but so is her self-destructive streak - and it's catching up to her. When Lara's management delivers an ultimatum - seek help or risk losing everything - the world of neon lights, screaming fans, and private jets collides with Manon's world of quiet observation, careful control, and unflinching insight. One demands structure; the other thrives on chaos. But in the space where their worlds intersect, nothing stays predictable. What begins as professional necessity slowly evolves into something deeper, more dangerous. Secrets will surface. Boundaries will blur. And in the delicate balance between control and surrender, Manon and Lara will discover just how much power a single connection can hold. When the therapist meets the popstar, the question isn't whether their worlds collide - it's whether they survive the explosion.

To the outside world, their rivalry is electric. To Lara, it's something else entirely. They have a history neither of them talks about-and only one truly remembers. As their teams are forced into close quarters-shared practices, shared hotels, shared road trips-the line between enemy and something far more dangerous begins to blur. Every look lasts too long, every collision feels personal, every victory tastes like loss. Because some rivalries aren't born on the court. They're written long before the first whistle blows.Complete
