Scoring With The Enemy

What happens when your fiercest rival becomes your fake girlfriend…. and then something real? Sloane Carter and Rhiannon Boyd have spent a year making each other's lives hell. England's ice-cold striker versus Scotland's fiery midfielder. Their viral shoving match at Hampden Park made them enemies. Now the FA is forcing them onto the same team…. and into the same hotel room. When paparazzi catch them looking "too close," the FA sees opportunity: fake date for publicity. It's perfect PR. They'll smile for cameras, hold hands at galas, and keep their hatred private. Simple. Except nothing about forced proximity with your enemy is simple. The staged coffee dates become real conversations. The performance kisses linger too long. Somewhere between enemies to lovers moments and late-night confessions, Sloane realizes she's falling for the one woman she swore to hate. But admitting feelings means risking everything…. her career, her reputation, and the walls she's built around her heart. When a jealous teammate leaks their arrangement to the press, their fake relationship explodes into scandal. The world calls them liars. Their teams question their loyalty. And they must choose: hide the truth to save their careers, or fight for something real? With the European Super League final on the line and eighty thousand fans watching, Sloane faces the biggest decision of her life. Can two lovers survive the spotlight or will the truth destroy them both?
