    Summary

    And she knows it’s all for naught; that one day soon she’ll reach for a spoon in the kitchen without thinking or grab her cream from the vanity without needing to look and she’ll miss, instead, these moments where everything is new.

    But it’s late – or early – and the house is quiet and so she gives herself permission to want for what once was – just for a minute. Just while there’s no one awake to catch her mooning over time gone by.

    OR Carla, the middle of the night at number 6, and some quiet reflection.

    Summary

    Carla and Lisa were inseparable since high school, but Carla has secretly loved Lisa all along—something she’s never dared to confess. When Carla and Lisa go off to university, Lisa meets Becky and a whirlwind romance begins. When Lisa marries Becky, Carla steps aside, even becoming the maid of honour, all while her heart silently breaks. As Becky’s jealousy slowly drives a wedge between them, the once-close friendship begins to unravel. 25 years later, fate reunites them after Becky’s death, sparking a slow rekindling of their bond. But as Carla and Lisa reconnect, the feelings Carla has buried for years threaten to resurface, leaving her wondering if it’s too late for love.

    Summary

    “You know, there’s a word for women like you.”

    Lisa quirks an eyebrow. “Oh yeah?”

    “Yeah,” Carla nods. “MILF.”

    Lisa laughs then; a real filthy laugh that makes Carla feel totally weightless. The blonde casually slings her arm over the back of Carla’s chair, her face only inches away from the brunette’s as she leans in and says-

    “There’s a word for women like you too.”

    Carla blinks, her throat bobbing as she swallows. “Uh-huh?”

    “Mmm,” Lisa hums. “Trouble.”

    Summary

    Lisa Swain is the architect of order: Captain of Manchester City, a minimalist perfectionist, and the self-proclaimed "Ice Queen" of the league. She views football as a science to be mastered.

    Carla Connor is the definition of chaos: Captain of Manchester United, a local hero fueled by adrenaline, instinct, and the roar of the crowd. She views football as a war to be won.

    For ten years, they have been total opposites. For five years, they have been bitter rivals. But this season, the tackles are hitting harder, the stares in the tunnel are lingering longer, and the hatred is starting to feel dangerously like obsession.

    When the rivalry spills over the touchline, Lisa discovers that the only thing more terrifying than losing control is giving it to the one person she’s sworn to destroy.
