Summary
Lisa Swain is a lifelong Manchester City supporter, fiercely loyal and just as passionate about football as she is about life. After a standout game at the Etihad, she crosses paths with City's new star signing, Carla Connor — a sharp, fearless winger who’s quickly winning hearts on and off the pitch.
Their first meeting is brief but charged, leaving Lisa more captivated than she cares to admit. As the season goes on, their paths continue to cross — first at matches, then at unexpected moments around Manchester. The more Lisa sees of Carla, the more the professional bravado gives way to glimpses of something real, something vulnerable.
But with Carla’s rising fame and Lisa's own doubts about mixing real feelings with football hero-worship, both women must figure out if what’s growing between them is just a passing spark — or something worth fighting for.
It's a story about passion, patience, and finding connection in a world that moves faster than a 90-minute match.
