Summary
Twenty-three-year-old Alex Morgan earned the starting job for the U.S. Women's National Team in 2012. That year, she led the U.S. to absolute victory with twenty-eight goals, twenty-one assists, and seventy-seven points, joining the legendary Mia Hamm as the only U.S. player to tally twenty goals and twenty assists in one calendar year. Dubbed U.S. Soccer’s 2012 Female Athlete of the Year, it was clear that Alex Morgan was on the rise as the goal scoring continued into 2013, helping the Portland Thorns FC earn the inaugural NWSL championship.
But during an international friendly in October, the young, promising striker took a turn for the worse. A steady stream of inconsistent playing time with an injury planted and nurtured the seeds of doubt within her. What happens when Little Miss Perfect discovers that she isn’t so perfect after all?

Summary
"For as long as I can remember, the Force has shown me visions of the future. It is a future I must fight and sacrifice for, but it will all be worth it once it comes to pass. I know you’ve experienced such visions as well: of the forest on Starkiller, of Ach-to, of me.”
Rey gasped. “You know about that?”
He cupped her face and brought it close to his. “Know of them? I shared them. The force pulled in both directions, giving us both glimpses of what was to come. Although, I think I may have been given more insight than you have. But trust me. We all have a destiny, Rey, and yours lies with me.”
Rey's past visions had not felt like a call to destiny. They had seemed more like a warning.

Summary
‘I love you’ doesn’t always have to be said in a grand gesture. Sometimes, the ‘I love yous’ can come in subtle ways, and if you blink, you’ll miss them.
Or,
The one where I finally wrote the ‘9 Ways to Say I Love You’ trope.’ I went with 9, instead of 100 because I’m lazy as hell (peep all my unfinished works), and 100 sounded like too much of a commitment.
