Summary
It's 1965. Niki Lauda has been shipped off to an English boarding school in disgrace. He hates everything about Lightfell College except his best friend Marlene, and the secret underground races he sneaks out to every weekend.
But he hates super-popular jock sixth-former James Hunt the most.
__James Hunt knows that the future his family want for him - medical school, marriage, suburbia - is hurtling towards him, in spite of his own desires. He wants to race. He wants things he's too scared to even name.
And he wants to never see geeky new boy Niki Lauda ever again.

Summary
Nobody else had burrowed under his skin like Haaland had. He was so far from his usual type, so friendly and stoic and cool-headed. God, Jude had liked him so much. He’d spent years making such a tit of himself trying to impress him, and what kept him on the backfoot was that he hadn’t needed to - Haaland had been his rock from the moment he joined the club. It was so easy, so effortless to slip into a routine, it unsettled Jude as much as it thrilled him. But he hadn’t liked how small Haaland made him feel. How out of control. The man was unflappable, impossible to provoke. Jude resented his own infatuation, the ever-swelling bubble of fondness he nursed for Erling, because he had no idea how to be with a man who didn’t fight back.
[The quarter-final looms. Jude hasn't seen Erling since their Dortmund days, and he still hasn't come to terms with his sexuality. Or his fondness for getting folded in half.]

Summary
Jude Bellingham had everything he’d ever wanted: a starting spot at Real Madrid, awards, and a best friend he was stupidly in love with.
Admittedly, that last part was less ideal but whatever.
He had made peace with it. It wasn't Erling's fault. It was fine, really. Capital F.
Then Erling stopped touching him. Which, frankly, was taking the piss.

Summary
Everything about it feels stupidly normal — ordinary in a way Jude didn’t realise he craved. With Erling, he doesn’t have to present the best version of himself or hide the parts that aren’t shiny. There’s none of the usual, careful pretending that people slip into when they’re starting something new. Erling already knows him, and Jude finds a quiet comfort in how easy that makes everything.
Or, Jude Bellingham and Erling Haaland fall in love and have to figure out a way to be together.

Summary
Pedri is a quiet student who moved to Paris for his master’s degree and spends his nights bartending the VIP section of an exclusive club to pay his tuition. Frankly, he just wants to be left alone, and he couldn’t care less about fame or the people who frequent his bar.
That is until Ferran shows up. Little did Pedri expect a drunk, obnoxious and utterly annoying but insanely handsome PSG player to make his life hell. What starts as a hostile encounter is set to turn into a slow-burn romance about boundaries, trust and learning to drop the performance.
