Summary
At 21, Jamie writes his first book, a romance novel about an up and coming footballer who embodies everything Jamie isn’t: kind, caring, soft. Published under a pseudonym, it unexpectedly takes off, followed by a sequel in the same vein.
But his third book is different. This time, Jamie pours onto the page what he can’t say aloud: his father’s abuse, his sexuality, the suffocating weight of expectation. Only when he begins to find his place back at Richmond does he start to feel hope again, both for his book and his future.
Meanwhile, Roy, thanks to his yoga mums, becomes hooked on a series of novels by an anonymous author. He never expects one of them to put words to feelings he’s buried for years.
Or: An AU where Jamie Tartt is a successful author alongside his football career.

Summary
It’s 2018. Roy Kent is nearing the end of his career at Chelsea FC. His body is breaking down, younger players are snapping at his heels, and he's nursing more than just old injuries. There’s a drinking problem, a drug habit, and a sister who won’t return his calls. He’s been stuck in his own head for months. Long enough that one of the senior staff at Chelsea finally pulls him aside and tells him about a place not far from Stamford Bridge. Down a narrow side street, easy to miss if you’re not looking. A bar that used to be a gambling den. Still smells like smoke and secrets. And behind the bar, there’s a gorgeous young man who knows how to pull a man out of his own head for the right price. If Roy is willing to take the risk.
